Pomace is also used in the production of certain high-value compounds such as antioxidants, natural colorants, and food additives. Its versatility and sustainability make it a valuable by-product of food processing.

Additionally, it can handle a wider range of produce, including leafy greens and wheatgrass, and can be used to make nut butter, baby food, and sorbets. Although it may be more expensive than other types of juicers, the benefits it provides make it a worthwhile investment for those who prioritize health and nutrition.

Once brewed, the coffee should be poured into a mug and enjoyed black or with your preferred additions like sugar or cream.
