Food & Drink / Descrizione prodotti
Italian term or phrase: Centrifuga
Ciao a tutti!
Sto descrivendo delle bevande in una panoramica prodotti e una di queste viene definita "una valida alternativa alle centrifughe" di frutta e verdura.
Ho trovato "centrifugal juice" ma non mi convince... qualcuno mi può confermare o smentire?
Grazie in anticipo!

English translation:Fresh juice [made with a centrifuge]
Explanation:
I believe it's referring to fruit or vegetable juice extracted with a centrifuge. If it's not important to make a fine distinction, maybe just "fresh fruit/vegetable juice"? I've included a web reference for juice extractor vs centrifuge.

Smoothie Maker/Juicer


Explanation:
Per me, una centrifuga può essere un tipo di Smoothie Maker o Juicer (dipendendo dal prodotto che produce). Il prodotto sarebbe semplicemente smoothie o juice

neutral  Wolf Draeger: Smoothie is a nice alternative but usually (though not always) contains a bunch of ingredients.

neutral  Mel R: Smoothies often contain milk (or a non-dairy alternative) to make them thicker/creamier.
12 hrs
neutral  Shabelula: I see in Australia a smoothie is a blend of fruit, no additions. but in this sentence it means the drink, so no need to add "maker" or "juicer", it's not the device

centrifugal juicer


Explanation:
Mi baso sul fatto che il prodotto è proposto come alternativa del metodo di estrazione per centrifuga. Esistono sono dibattiti legati a quale sia il migliore, più economico o salutare, quindi IMHO il riferimento alla tecnica di estarzione è necessario.
Un centrifugal jucer o centrifuga rompe la frutta con lame piatte (come nei classici mixer) ma estare il succo facendo girare i pezzi ad altissima velocità.
Non so quale sia l'altra teconologia comparata, immagino sia estrazione tramite coclea, e sono definiti single-gear (opposti a double-gear)/masticating juicer, anche detti estrattori a freddo (ma non sono sicurissimo su questo punto, credo che si tratti di tecniche industriali e non domestiche in questo caso).

Reference: Pressed vs Extracted (juice)

Reference information:
Perhaps what is being contrasted in the text is juice obtained from extraction and juice obtained from pressing. "Centrifuge/centrifugal" is the correct technical term, but here it may be more idiomatic to say the product is an alternative to "extracted juice".
