About the manufacturer Tribest
Tribest is one of the biggest manufacturers of slow juicers. Tribest has earned its reputation primarily with the development of first-class horizontal juicers with twin-augers - e. G. the legendary Greenstar Elite or the Greenstar Pro. No wonder, that Tribest has succeeded in creating a real revolution on the market with the Shine compact juicer: great juice yield, compact housing, low price.
How good is the quality of the juice?
Clear green juices
We love to drink green juices - whether from celery, leafy greens like spinach or herbs, or parsley. Mixing these ingredients with some fruits and vegetables results in a delicious tasting juice. Of course, you can also make this type of juice with the Tribest Shine - up to a quantity of 500 ml per juicing cycle. Important: The fibrous ingredients - leafy greens, herbs, celery - must be cut to a size of 1,5-2 cm before juicing. Otherwise the Tribest Shine tends to clog because the fibrous pomace cannot escape so well due to its design.
Clear vegetable and fruit juices - single-variety or as a mixed juice
The Tribest Shine processes vegetables such as zucchini, carrots, and cucumbers into clear, full-bodied juices. It also produces clear, single-variety juices - e. G. from apples or pineapple. Normally, soft fruits can cause the juicer to clog. Not with the Tribest Shine: this compact juicer juices soft fruits with ease.
Ginger and/or turmeric shots
The Tribest Shine can also be used to make ginger and/or turmeric shots. The juice yield is average, which is also quite sufficient when making small amounts of the spicy elixir.
Fresh sauerkraut juice
If you want to support your intestinal flora and your immune system with freshly squeezed juice from raw sauerkraut, you can confidently rely on the Tribest Shine. Just as with all other juices: clear consistency and a pleasant full-bodied taste.
Is the Tribest Shine capable of producing celery juice?
The Tribest Shine extracts an amazing amount of juice from celery stalks. In our celery juice juicer test, it landed in 4th place! It is important to cut the celery stalks into 1-2 cm long pieces so that the pulp can escape more easily during the juicing process. Most importantly, the juice has a clear, full-bodied taste. The maximum juicing volume is 500 ml - after that, the Tribest Sine needs a break from operation and cleaning of the housing.
What other preparation possibilities are there?
The Tribest Shine compact juicer focuses on juicing leafy greens, vegetables and fruits. It' s just not made for other applications. Accordingly, only the fine screen, for producing freshly squeezed juices, is included in the scope of delivery.
Operation & handling of the Tribest Shine compact juicer
With a few simple steps, the four parts of the Tribest Shine compact juicer can be assembled quickly and easily. The markings on the motor block, juice drum and hopper are helpful here. First, place the juice drum on the motor block, aligning the markings (open lock and filled circle) on the device. Now turn clockwise until the parts are locked in place. Insert the screen and make sure that the screen fits into the corresponding recess on the juice drum. Now place the hopper according to the markings on the device and turn clockwise until the parts are also engaged.
As soon as the compact juicer is connected to the power, juicing can begin. The central control button for turning the device on and off and for unlocking (REV function) is located on the backside of the device. Cut ingredients according to the diameter of the hopper. Fibrous ingredients such as celery stalks should be cut into 1-2 cm long pieces. This ensures that the pulp can continuously flow out during juicing. Now turn on the device, close the juice flap and gradually add the ingredients to the hopper. The Tribest Shine pulls the ingredients towards the pressing mechanism as if by itself. Only very hard ingredients will require a squeeze with the included tamper. When the juice housing is full - around 400 to 500 ml of juice, open the juice flap and collect the freshly squeezed juice in the juice container provided. When all ingredients have been juiced, turn off the unit. The Tribest Shine should not run for more than 10 minutes at a time!
Important note: In total, the Tribest Shine should not run for more than 10 minutes at a time! The maximum juicing volume is 500 ml per juicing cycle - after that, the Tribest Shine compact juicer needs a break in operation.
If the juice drum is clogged, press the REV button
The Tribest Shine almost never blocks. Of course, its design as a vertical juicer suits it well here. Even with larger quantities of soft ingredients, there is no blockage. However, if it does get stuck - perhaps because too many ingredients were added too quickly - simply hold down the REV function. The auger of the juicer will now rotate backwards to clear the blockage. When the blockage is cleared, release the REV button, wait for the auger to come to a complete standstill - Important: don't start the device until it has come to a complete standstill.
Cleaning the Tribest Shine compact juicer
To clean the Tribest Shine, first unplug the juicer from the power outlet. The juicer can now be disassembled into its individual parts. First, remove the juice drum and rinse it with lukewarm water. It's best to remove the screen together with the auger, in the next step. This makes it easier to subsequently press out the auger. The Tribest Shine compact juicer tends to have large amounts of pulp in the screen and on the auger. It is recommended to roughly remove the residue with your hands and the end of the supplied cleaning brush. Throw residue directly into the organic waste or the pulp jar, otherwise it may clog the drain of your sink. Then rinse both parts with lukewarm water and clean the inside and outside of the screen with the small cleaning brush. Now clean the juice drum by removing the pulp residue from the pulp outlet using the end of the cleaning brush. Then rinse the juice drum with lukewarm water and clean it with the small brush if necessary. At the very end, rinse out the pulp and juice containers and briefly dry all parts with a kitchen towel or let them air dry.
Attention: The parts of the juicer are not dishwasher safe!

Tribest Shine compact juicer vs. Sana Juicer 707
Advantages of the Tribest Shine compact juicer vs the Sana Juicer 707:
- Higher juice yield: The Tribest Shine gets more juice out of leafy greens, fruits and vegetables than the Sana 707. This was particularly evident in our celery juice juicer test, where the Tribest Shine juiced an average about 100 ml more juice out of 500 g of celery than the Sana 707.
- Space-saving: The Tribest Shine compact juicer lives up to its name. Due to its compact dimensions, it is extremely space-saving and should easily find its place in every kitchen. The Sana Juicer 707, on the other hand, takes up significantly more space.
- Clean juicing: The Tribest Shine compact juicer features a convenient juice flap that prevents staining the countertop after juicing. Simply open the flap, extract the juice and close it again. Super-practical for coloring juice preparations such as turmeric shot or beetroot juice. The Sana 707 does not have a juice flap. Therefore, a few drops of juice always end up on the countertop.
Advantages of the Sana Juicer 707 over the Tribest Shine compact juicer:
- Less complicated: The Sana Juicer 707 turns juicing, including cleaning, into a joyride! Thanks to its wide hopper, ingredients don't have to be cut into small pieces. Celery stalks can be juiced in thirds or halves. The Tribest Shine requires the celery stalks to be cut into 1-2 cm long pieces to avoid clogging the pulp outlet. In addition, the Sana 707 is much faster to clean than the Tribest Shine. You're done with cleaning the Sana 707 in about 2-3 minutes - you'll need double to triple the time for the Tribest Shine.
- Better equipped: With a sturdy juice jug made of borosilicate glass and a stainless steel pulp jar, the Sana Juicer 707 has higher-quality equipment than the Tribest Shine compact juicer - both are made of BPA-free plastic.
- Longer safeguarded: The Sana 707 is better backed than the Tribest Shine compact juicer. You get a 10-year warranty on the motor and gearbox and 5 years on all other parts. The Tribest Shine only has a 2-year warranty on all parts. This explains the higher price of a Sana Juicer 707 and is also reflected in its high quality workmanship.

Hi there, can elderberries be juiced with stem in this device? Thank you!
Question submitted by Karina on May 16, 2021 at 21:50 o'clock
Hello Karina,
Thank you very much for your question.
To make a pure elderberry juice, you actually need a coarse sieve.
However, the Tribest Shine only has a fine sieve, which can be used to juice mixed juices of hard and soft ingredients in addition to green juices made from hard ingredients.
If you want to juice elderberries in a juice mix, we would recommend cutting the stems into small pieces, or remove them completely for taste reasons, as a bitter aftertaste can arise.

Generally, you can also juice pomegranate seeds in the Tribest Shine. If there is a backlog and the juicer stalls, simply press the reverse button.

Hello Lena,
thank you for your question.
The Tribest Shine is a compact juicer foremost.
You would need a blank sieve, to prepare almond milk, which the Tribest Shine does not have.

Is there a coarse sieve for this device?
Question submitted by Petra on December 5, 2020 at 01:15 o'clock
Hello Petra,
thank you very much for your message.
The Tribest Shine processes vegetables (e.g. zucchini, carrots, cucumbers) into clear, full-bodied juices. It can also be used to produce clear, pure juices – e.g. from apples or pineapples. Even soft fruits can be juiced without ingredient jams. An additional sieve is not necessary.

Hello,
I've been considering buying a juicer for a very long time. But there still are some questions:
what can I do with the pulp? … Do you have a suggestion?
Thanks a lot
Question submitted by Alexandra on March 26, 2020 at 19:35 o'clock
Hello Alexandra,
thank you for your question.
There are some ideas how to use the pulp. But it also depends a bit on what ingredients you are juicing. For example, if you juice celery, carrot, cucumber and apple, you could use the pulp to make patties. You can find numerous recipes for this on the web.
Another use would be, for example, raw food crackers. And if you have a dog at home, you could make dog treats with the pulp.

How do you juice wheatgrass leaves and sprouts?
Have you had any experience with this? Which device would you recommend?
Question submitted by Gabriele on March 26, 2020 at 09:50 o'clock
Hello Gabriele,
thank you for your question.
The mono test for wheatgrass juice with the Tribest Shine is still pending. In addition to vegetables and fruits, we have tested a number of fibrous ingredients such as celery, leafy greens such as endive, lettuce, spinach, chard and herbs such as parsley or cilantro in the Tribest Shine. You can juice these ingredients if you cut them small enough. Herbs and leafy greens should also be cut to a maximum length of 2 cm. This way, the Tribest Shine can certainly also be used for the preparation of fresh wheatgrass juice. You can certainly also juice sprouts with it.
Best regards,

Hello, I have a juicer that is very similar to the Tribest incl. auger. Taken apart, it has the same parts as the Tribest. There is a small outlet on the bottom of the strainer. But when I juice fibrous vegetables like celery, this small hole gets clogged quickly, even if I cut the celery into small pieces or try to remove fibres beforehand. How does the tribest solve this problem? What leafy greens have you already juiced?
Question submitted by Kathrin on March 24, 2020 at 19:02 o'clock
Hello Kathrin,
we have had good experiences with the Tribest Shine when preparing celery juice. To prevent the pulp outlet from becoming clogged or to allow the pulp to escape continuously during juicing, the celery stalks should be cut to 1-2 cm long pieces. The same applies to fibrous ingredients such as parsley or cabbage leaves. If you keep this in mind and stick to a maximum preparation quantity of about 650 ml, all kinds of green juices will succeed. We've also juiced spinach, endive, or chard in the Tribest Shine.
Many greetings
Carla

No clear celery and carrot juicesActually a great and compact juicer. Unfortunately, I have (no matter how small the pieces were) no clear juice from celery and carrots and I had to filter with the juice with a nut milk bag.
Too bad, because otherwise excellent.
Editor's comment:
First of all, it's nice to hear that the Tribest Shine meets a lot of expectations. Of course, the high juice yield at this price point means that there are also more particles in the juice. Many customers like this because it usually also adds to the flavor and is more economical. Too bad that it appears to be too much in this case. -

Perfect for my small household. I can only recommend it.I have the juicer now for 1 week and am thrilled. Very small and surprisingly quiet. With 110gr celery I had about 120ml juice (how can that be??) and the taste I like :-)
At the moment I throw everything into the juicer to test and if you chop everything a bit, it works wonderfully.
The cleaning I do immediately and then it is also no problem. -

I would not buy the device again.I have the juicer Tribest Shine now for about 2 months in use. I bought it for juicing celery juice. I do not get quite as good results as perhaps others here. For me, at least in terms of celery juice, the juicer is a failure.
I started with 300 ml for the first 14 days. In the process, the first difficulties already turned out. The auger sucked so tightly that I couldn't get it out. Fortunately, I found a tool in my kitchen that was actually intended as an accessory for a grill, with which I was able to lift the auger. When I then increased the amount to 500 ml, the next, even bigger problem came. The lid would no longer open. This was so bad that I wanted to send the device back already in this condition. Only the combined forces of my husband and I managed to get the lid open. I then rubbed it with coconut oil, which only helped to a limited extent. My call to the staff of GrueneSmoothies revealed that the issue was known, but probably also occurs with more expensive models.
I have now come to terms with the device. The most important thing is to always process the celery in small 3 cm pieces. Then I always let some time pass until the next piece. But the most important thing is to use the brush included to constantly get the pomace out of the ejector to avoid clogging. This is because if the interior becomes clogged, the auger is pushed up, putting the lid under tension. The strange rubber lip that is on the bottom of the screen is probably to prevent the pomace from pushing out the bottom. However, this doesn't really work. 1. Did I discover this rubber lip only after a few days at all, 2. Slightly longer threads clamp just on it and 3. This rubber seal does not close automatically. So you have to keep remembering to fumble it into the opening provided for it. To prevent the screw from getting stuck again, I always run the machine briefly in the opposite direction at the end. That helps at least a little.
So for me, at least in terms of celery juice, this device is not technically mature. If the celery contains a lot of leaves, the juice is also not clear and you have to strain it again, which then reduces the amount again. For cucumber salad, the device works perfectly. Fruit I have not yet tried.
I was looking for a device at a relatively low price, because even 200 euros is a lot of money, because I did not know whether I would stay with it at all and I would not have an expensive corner keeper shortly. But I think you can find other devices at the same price or even cheaper. A comparison is certainly worthwhile here. -

Nice juicerWe are highly satisfied with the Tribest Shine. we chose it mainly because of its small size. We have been using it daily for 6 weeks and have not had a single problem. Very pleasant motor noise. My kids are fascinated by the funny snake that comes out of the pulp outlet. It's also handy that you can put the two plastic containers inside each other for easy storage.

great deviceAfter the celery juicing test, I decided to go with the Tribest, having previously had an older slow juicer, which unfortunately broke beyond repair. The Tribest takes up little space, is quite light (compared to my old unit at least) and is also quiet. It juices hard and soft, even leafy greens and wild herbs are no problem. It is a bit cumbersome to clean, because all parts are not allowed in the dishwasher and you really have to remove the pulp from all parts (auger, strainer) with the brush. I don't think that's a bad thing though. I like best that it is really so narrow that it can stand on the work surface permanently. I think, I make more juices because it is always available this way. It is still noticeable that the juices are very clear.

My new highlight in the kitchen!Had long thought about getting me a juicer. Then came this juicer with good results for a small price. I had to buy it! Good handling, easy cleaning, works quietly, good juice yield (I first tried celery) and tasty too. Glad to have gotten a great juicer for "little" money. Hope that I will also have long pleasure in it. Thank you!
