Larger Capacity
The pulp catcher, the motor, the juice container are all large, allowing you to juice without interruptions. The Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer is truly elite in terms of power, size and juicing capacity.
The Breville Juice Fountain Elite‘s container can hold up to 5 cups of juice. This is usually enough for a family of four.
As other Breville juicer reviews also attest, the added convenience is a blessing for many users, saving time and retaining their enthusiasm for juicing.
Froth Separator
Some users find it annoying when there’s a layer of froth on the surface of your juice. It ruins the flavor of fresh home made juice.
This Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer comes equipped with a froth separator. Having an add-on that leaves only delicious fruit extract is one of the great appeals of this appliance.
Two-Speed Settings
There’s a variable speed setting in the Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer, with two options to adjust according to your juicing needs.
This helps to extract juice better from different types of produce.
- Higher setting of 13000 rpm for harder produce
- Lower setting of 6500 rpm for softer produce
Shorter Prep Time
You don’t have to waste time cutting and chopping your produce to fit into the chute any more. The feed tube in this Breville juicer can accommodate even whole apples and peeled oranges, carrots and tomatoes.
To ensure smooth juicing with the Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer, take these precautions:
- remove the peel from citruses and other bitter tasting fruits to get delicious juice.
- get rid of the stone from fruits like peaches and nectarines, plums and apricots. This way the sharp edges of titanium coated blades in won’t get damaged.

Performance
The micro mesh in your Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer with over 40,000 pores helps make smooth, healthy and refreshing drinks every time
A patented direct central feed system ensures all the juice is extracted from produce.
In the Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer the feed chute is sited right over the shredding disc (Nutri Disc), unlike other juicers which introduce food from the side. This maximizes juice extraction.

Safety Mechanisms
Bolts in the locking arms move quarter of an inch in all directions. This ensures a snug fit of the Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer.
The safety mechanism prevents the juicer from switching on unless the cover is in place.
How to Use The Breville Juice Fountain Elite Safely
Use a Stop-Start Method
To prevent over heating of the powerful motor, don’t run the machine continuously for longer than a minute.
After a minute, stop the Breville juicer machine and allow the motor to rest and start again.
Don’t Push In Produce
Do not force produce down the food chute of the Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer with excessive pressure. This can damage the blades and filtering mechanism.
It will also waste produce as juice extraction is not maximized. A gentle pressure to guide food down the chute is ideak.
Maintain a Steady Rate
Some foods contain a lot of water. Juicing them produces plenty of juice. This can cause juice to leak out.
If you notice juice leaking out between the plastic cover of the Breville Juice Fountain Elite juicer and the filter bowl, then stop feeding produce. Slow down the rate at which you add more using the food pusher.
