Can this be used for Grapefruit as well? Is it big enough

I use it routinely for large grapefruits. I split & sometimes quarter them if they're giant. Due to the ruggedness of the device it handles everything I've grown.

If a fruit is too big, simply cut it into smaller parts, or reposition the part of the fruit that didn't get juiced completely. I would say a large grapefruit may need to be quartered with a knife, then juiced.

The Olympus Commercial Juice Press is large enough to be used on grapefruits. We have used the Juice Press on grapefruits (and oranges, lemons, and limes) and have been very satisfied with how it works.

Yes it can be used for grapefruit. Every once in a while it will pull the cup out of its seated position, but all in all I have used it successfully for grapefruit - oranges, limes, lemons. And most importantly pomegranetes!

Yes. I can be used for grapefruit, oranges, and pomegranates. Just don't put too much pressure on the handle and squeeze too hard or you will be able to taste the rind instead of getting pure juice.

What a good idea! A small grapefruit will work, or cut an extra large one in 4ths.

for me,it is the correct size. i use it for oranges, limes, lemons, perfectly.

If the grapefruit is small, it would work. The large side of the juicer measures 3.5 inches across.

I think so. You may have to squeeze the grapefruit a little to press it against the center juicing mechanism, but I don't see a huge problem.

Of Course it can be used for citrus. these things are very stout. If they can squeeze a pom they can sure as heck squeeze an orange. Unfortunately the one I ordered was broken in transit so I ended up purchasing an OrangeX (which BTW works perfectly well on Poms). I may have received a flawed one. the company wanted to send me a new one but i already had the OrangeX.

Depending on the fruit not so bad- lemons and limes pretty easy, but grapefruits (which I mostly juice) are tough because they are wider, even for the larger reamer. If you're losing strength in your hands, it might be better to save up and get an automated one that can also do things like apples- it would probably have more longevity

My nephew is the one who received this. He used it for pears. He recommended another use it for grapefruit. I would think that peaches woukd be fine.

Hi it depends on the size of the fruit. I have 400 trees and the size very ( pom wonderful variety ) some are larger than grapefruits no way they fit so just be practical. I was at T-J max 2 months ago an found presses for $39.99 each so I bought 3. It is good to shop around.

It is 3 1/2 " - I have squeezed small grapefruit in it but it is just fine for Oranges. Perfect , No but, I would buy it again.

I don't see why it wouldn't be...it's a bit of a larger grain than your refined sugar, so I would think it would be better, in fact. The only benefit I could see is it is the raw product, not the bleached, refined product...but though think the larger grain would prove more efficient in exfoliating in a sugar scrub. Also, just fyi, but cutting a grapefruit in half, using half of the grapefruit and sprinkling or dipping the grapefruit in the sugar, you can use it to scrub your tub/sink and all the grime just comes off and rinses away...and its all natural...leaves a nice scent behind as well. :) I don't see why it wouldn't be...it's a bit of a larger grain than your refined sugar, so I would think it would be better, in fact.

By putting a longer pull cord on the pciker it should work. However, depending upon what you are picking, the leverage factor may make it difficult to control once the fruit is picked. I use ours for grapefruit which are fairly large and at 15' extension the fruit is a little hard to control on the way down.

I thik it can squeeze grapefruits. I haven't tried it but I will now. I use it'd or lemons and limes.

I would consider these spoons to be thick and blunt. We use them for everything and they should be fine for grapefruit.

I truly don't know. But I do know that we could pick the grapefruit without any damage to the fruit. It does have sorta like fingers that could puncture the fruit. But, I also think you could be careful and when you place the fingers around the stem and fruit and not do damage. Since we were going up in a tree, it was easier with 2 of us so when the fruit was in the basket I could bring it down and Dick would reach the basket and remove the fruit so I didn't dump it on the ground. We really like it and it's easy to use. Hope I've helped a bit.

We use it for large grapefruit in clusters very high up so it should work with other large fruit.

Yes. It is a very handy tool for fruits 2-5 inches width. The little cups that you can add to the sides will hold the smaller fruit.

I would say yes, but am not certain. It is freeze-dried grapefruit juice - and if adding water, it becomes reconstituted juice. I don't like this flavor as much as I love the Lime, then the Lemon .
