Review and Buyers Guide
Edited by: Vegan Agility Team , Last updated: December 6, 2020
Celery is by far one of the most nutritious vegetables to juice due to its high mineral and water content, is brilliant as a base for your morning juices and one you definitely shouldn’t be skipping out on.
- For every 1 cup of celery used provides you with over 25% of your daily amount of vitamin K, a large number of antioxidants while also being rich in vitamin A, C, folate, and potassium
- Making celery essential for anyone trying to step up their juicing game.
- Although there are many nutritional benefits to celery juice, such as reducing inflammation and helping to prevent high blood pressure, it is not always the easiest vegetable to juice if not used in the right type of juicer.

The unique thinly shaped leaves, coupled with the very firm strength of the stem, require a slow pressurized extraction to juice both aspects properly. The typical attributes needed to efficiently juice celery are usually found in slow juicers, but not every slow masticating juicer can deal with celery efficiently.
To help those genuinely trying to get the most from their celery juice journeys, we have researched and analyzed the top juicers available, and compiled a list of only the best that excels at juicing celery.

In-Depth Reviews Of The Best Celery Juicers (2021 updated)
1. Omega nC900 – Editor’s Choice
The Omega nc900hds is a high quality slow masticating juicer that excels with juicing leafy green vegetables, and celery is no exception. Consistently making the best celery juice can be complicated due to its delicate leaves and thick stem, but the Omega nc900 turns what some juicers struggle with into an effortless task.
Juicer type and speed
The key features that allow the nc900 slow juicer to do so well with celery juice extraction are the dual-stage mastication, which juices the celery then juices the celery pulp, which results in a higher juice yield. Also, the adjustable pressure settings. This allows you to vary screen pressure for more efficient juicing and pulp extraction. These features create the perfect setting for making nutrient-dense celery juice with minimal oxidation.
Another great attribute of the nc900 slow masticating juicer is the amount of pressure the horizontal auger can exert without letting in oxygen. This creates the perfect setting for mixing your celery juice with other leafy green vegetables such as wheatgrass or kale.
Ease of use, noise and clean up
When it comes to ease of use and cleaning time, the NC900hds slow masticating juicer is actually a joy to use. The automatic pulp ejection makes the pulp cleaning process simple and fast, plus the dishwasher safe parts make the omega very easy to clean after extracting your celery juice.

2. Tribest GSE 5050 – Best for celery and hard vegetables
Juicer type and speed
The Tribest GSE 5000 is a premium slow masticating juicer specifically made for getting the highest juice yield from the toughest fruit and veggies. The all stainless steel bio-ceramic magnetic twin gears (yes, its a tongue twister) can draw out maximum juice yields from celery with dry pulp and minimal oxidation.
These attributes combined are precisely what is needed to get the most nutrients from our celery.
Juice yield and pulp filtration
The 200w power output coupled with the twin gear auger system can draw out enough power to withdraw a very high-quality celery juice yield, at speeds quicker than your average single auger juicer. The higher 100rpm compared to speeds typically slower than 80rpm allows you to juice your celery in a more timely manner without sacrificing a higher level of nutrient degradation that can occur in centrifugal juicers.
At 18.8 x 6.8 x 12.4, the Tribest is the biggest masticating juicer on our list, so space is needed for it to fit comfortably, but it comes with such a wide range of features that it’s a brilliant idea to make space for it.

4. Breville Juice Fountain Cold XL – Best centrifugal celery juicer
Juicer type and speed
The Breville juice fountain cold XL is the only centrifugal juicer that made it onto our top list for celery juicers. This is because centrifugal juicers are generally inefficient at breaking down the leaves and the stem of the celery. However, the Breville is powerful enough to break down any celery stem with ease due to its 1200 watt motor and the cold spin technology helps to prevent the rise in temperatures that normally occurs with centrifugal juicers.
Another feature that makes the Breville the best centrifugal option for celery is its pulp and froth filter, which does a great job at leaving your juice with minimal froth. The large size with 3.5 inch wide feed chute and the extremely fast juicing capabilities make this an excellent option for a large household that has to feed many mouths quickly. A downside to the quick juicing speed is the sound that can sometimes be loud if running at max speed. Luckily the Breville juice fountain Cold XL comes with noise reduction technology that helps to reduce the loudness when juicing.
Power and motor
Celery is one of the few vegetables in the leafy green category that the Breville can juice effectively due to having small leaves and a thick fibrous stem. Other leafy greens like wheatgrass or spinach will not bode so well in the Breville. So if you aim to juice a variety of leafy greens alongside your celery, then the Omega nc900hds may be the best alternative.

Celery Juicer Buyers Guide
So what qualities does a juicer for celery need to be effective?
Juicer type and juicing speed
For celery juice, there are really only two juicer types you should be concerned with when looking to get the most from your juicing experience.
Masticating juicer
The term masticating typically means to chew, grind or crunch, usually referring to teeth. In the case of juicers, it typically means the continuous grinding of vegetables in between an auger, which slowly rotates, with enough pressure to squeeze the juice out while crushing it.
The slow speed of the augers rotation is an important attribute and is the main reason that masticating juicers are also referred to as slow juicers. Auger rotation tends to range between 45rpm (rotations per minute)-110 rpm which provides the juicer with enough grinding time to extract the maximum amount of nutrients.
The temperature of masticating juicers is another selling point since low temperatures when juicing allowing keep the nutrients in your celery intact. So when you see the term cold-pressed juicer its also referring to a masticating juicer. The main drawdown of a masticating juicer is that they are typically more pricey than centrifugal juicers.
Centrifugal juicer
Centrifugal juicers use a flat blade and strainer that spin at high speeds between 10,000 and 13,000 RPM (revolutions per minute) to break down your chosen fruit or vegetable.
The juice and pulp are separated using “centrifugal force” during rotation. This can be effective with firm fruit and vegetables such as carrots, beets, or parsnips, but for more fragile thinner foods like wheatgrass or cabbage, the high speed and sharp blades end up being suboptimal since these types of vegetables do much better with a pressing or squeezing process.
Celery sits somewhere in the middle where centrifugal juicers can still do a relatively good job with juice extraction, but the juice yield still ends up being less than a masticating juicer can achieve
A positive for centrifugal juicers is that they are generally cheaper, so if a high juice yield is not your main priority, then a centrifugal juicer may be sufficient for your juicing needs.
Motor & Power
High amounts of power can be both good and bad. Harder vegetables can be broken down easier with a high powered motor, but the downside is that too much power can cause excess heat, which can negatively affect nutrient quality.
Centrifugal juicers have the highest power typically between 800-1000 watts since high power is required to spin the blades at a fast enough pace to extract the juice and separate the pulp from the produce
Masticating juicers, on the other hand, use a low amount of power typically in the range of 100-200w. This sounds small in comparison to the high powered centrifugal juicers but the slow rotational speed and the pressure applied between the screen and the auger with 100-200w power is usually enough to extract a high celery juice yield.
Due to a lower power output, less heat is generated while juicing which keeps the extracted celery nutrients in optimal condition.
Bear in mind that high power is usually synonymous with more noise, so consider this before deciding which celery juicer is best for your household.
Pulp extraction
The juicer’s ability to maximize pulp extraction is a significant factor in how far your produce can stretch. Dry pulp equals a higher level of extraction, but if the pulp is wet, it may mean the juicer is ill-equipped for that particular fruit or vegetable.
Masticating juicers tend to have more ways to adjust for pulp extraction, which in most cases means a higher quality juice yield in comparison to centrifugal juicers.
Look out for features such as adjustable end nozzles that allow for better pressure control and pulp filtration.
Ease of use
Key things to consider:
- Is the juicer easy to clean?
- Are the parts easy to assemble?
- Do they seem delicate or durable, and do they fit on easily without you having to google precisely how to piece everything together?
- How long does it take actually to start juicing? We all just want to juice and go, so a simple interface with easy to understand buttons on your juicer is paramount to minimal stress while juicing.
- Does it have a narrow or wide chute?
The bigger the feed chute, the less preparation needs to be done before throwing your celery in the juicer. If the feed chute is small, you will need to chop your celery into smaller pieces unless you have a vertical self-feeding juicer, which can generally deal with celery quite easily.
Extra features like adjustable speeds help when juicing celery with other fruits and vegetables, and reverse buttons help if any produce gets clogged during juicing.
Clean up
How difficult a juicer is to clean can be the make or break attribute that stops you in your track on your juicing journey simply because no one wants to do it. Thus, it’s vital to be aware of how long it will take to clean up your chosen juicer before you actually make a purchase.
Main things to consider are:
- The amount of parts- More juicer parts equals more things to clean. Single auger slow juicers tend to be the easiest to clean since they have minimal parts and minimal places for celery leaves to hideaway.
- Are they dishwasher safe? Some juicer parts may need a cleaning brush to make things easy to clean, others can be thrown in the dishwasher, providing that the parts are dishwasher safe.
An extra feature to look out for on some juicers is the self-cleaning function that cleans out the space between the auger and the screen. This saves overall clean up time and can be a nice bonus when picking out a celery juicer machine.
Vegan Agility Tip: Always wash or at least rinse out your juicer straight after using to make it easy to clean.
Size and appearance
How much space does the juicer take up, or what is its counter footprint. Some juicers especially ones with horizontal augers can take up a lot of space so knowing ahead of time where you want your juicer to sit and how much countertop space you actually have for it alongside space for you to chop and prep your produce is important
A vertical slow juicer may be the best option for those with limited space since they can fit nicely in most kitchen counter corners without edging over the side
Chute size is another thing to consider before purchasing and what fruits and vegetables do you plan on juicing the most. A larger chute will allow you to place much larger celery pieces in your juicer whereas a smaller chute will require precutting. However In most cases, precutting is recommended even if a chute is large enough since it stops the celery juicer from having to work too hard.
*Vegan agility side note* dependant on the food used if you have not precut your food, there is a higher chance of causing the celery juicer to backup or clog during the juicing process, so bear this in mind before throwing in humongous pieces of fruit into a large chute.
Value
The main things to consider when trying to determine value are price, parts, and warranty. You may be able to find a cheap juicer that looks like a brilliant deal, but if the warranty is short and doesn’t cover all product parts you may end up spending much more in the long run.
Warranties will vary depending on budget:
- The lower range of juicers providing 1-3 years
- Mid-range providing 5-10 years
- Upper ranges providing 10-15 years
The durability of the parts is key in our reviewing process and should be one of the main factor to consider before you purchase.
Questions to ask yourself before purchasing:
- Are the parts made of stainless steel or plastic?
- Is the plastic BPA free?
- Are the parts easy to replace if broken?
The more stainless steel parts that make up the product, the more durable and long-lasting the product will be. If the juicer comprises of predominantly plastic parts, it will tend to be cheaper but may not hold up as well over a considerable period of use.
