Bring citrus to room temperature, then roll it firmly on the benchtop before cutting. This helps loosen the fruit so more juice releases when it’s pressed. Cut across the middle and press steadily with your manual juicer, turning or reaming as needed.

Why buy a hand or manual juicer?
Twist, press, pour. A good manual juicer makes citrus prep feel refreshingly simple: lemon drizzled through guacamole, orange into a Sunday breakfast jug and fresh lime pressed into Friday night margaritas. It extracts the juice, catches pips, cleans up quickly and slips neatly into a drawer.
Your guide to choosing the right manual/hand juicer
If you mostly squeeze lemons and limes into cooking, cocktails or dressings, choose a handheld juicer: compact and easy to use one-handed. For breakfast juice or several oranges at once, a manual juice press gives you more leverage and suits bigger fruit. A reamer is the simplest pick for occasional citrus jobs, while catch-jug styles are best when you want to measure and strain as you go.
Complete your kitchen tool kit
For prep with a bit more zing, pair your hand juicer with grating and zesting tools, add chopping boards for premium prep stations, then rummage through kitchen gadgets for those clever extras that add a little more joy to the job.
