Isn't it irritating when you prepare a beverage in a juicer mixer grinder, and dry pulp or fibre keeps messing with the experience? Long strands often get stuck to your tongue or get jammed in between the gaps of teeth, making your tongue take a frequent trip to dislodge them.
You have to be smart while using the appliance. Say you have an advanced juicer mixer grinder by Usha, and you use it to prepare mocktails and refreshing beverages. Below are some tips to help you get rid of the pulp and achieve a smooth consistency at the end.
Use Fresh and Ripe Ingredients
Always utilise fresh, ripe fruits and vegetables to blend more smoothly and taste better. Use overripe fruits and vegetables because they can be mushy and will clog up the juicer, while underripe ones will be hard and gritty. Remove peels and chop them into fine, even pieces before putting them into the jar. This prevents blades from overworking and produces a smoother, more even consistency in your juices or smoothies with fewer pulpy pieces or fibre clumps.

Don't Overload Jar
Don't fill the jar too full of ingredients at a time. The motor can overload and cause uneven blending or even short circuits. Use just the fill line of the jar and blend in batches if required. Overfilling can create splattering, overheating, or unprocessed lumps too, particularly for thicker drinks. Blending with moderate amounts prevents uneven consistency and saves the appliance's lifespan as well.
Use Proper Jar & Speed Setting
Your mixer grinder juicer has separate jars for various uses. Use the blender jar for liquids and smoothies, and always select the right speed setting — most often medium to high for drinks. Going low speed first and working up can help break down foods more evenly. Using the wrong jar or setting can leave lumps behind, or even wear out the blades and motor over time. Use the same jar and speed for optimal results.
Layer Ingredients Wisely
For the best blending, always add liquid ingredients like water, milk, or juice first, followed by soft fruits, and finally, harder or frozen ingredients. This layering helps the blades move freely and reduces air pockets or blade jamming. Proper ingredient layering improves blade contact, minimises blending time, and ensures all items are processed evenly, resulting in a creamy, lump-free beverage every single time, especially helpful when working with leafy greens or dense fruits.
Pulse Before Blending Continuously
Begin with 2–3 brief pulses and then transition to continuous blending. Pulsing serves to break up large or fibrous pieces over time and enables ingredients to settle without clogging the blades. This method ensures you get everything blended smoothly when blending continuously and minimises motor strain. It's particularly good for ingredients such as carrots, beetroot, or green leaves, yielding a smoother texture with less grit or fibre in the finished drink.
