Product Description
The Sammic ECM is a manually operated citrus juice extractor built for counter use in commercial settings. It works through a lever-press mechanism that draws juice from oranges, lemons, grapefruits and similar citrus fruit without any electrical supply. An internal stainless steel strainer separates pulp during extraction, delivering a clean, consistent result in a single press.
In bar and café environments, this type of extractor performs reliably where fresh juice orders come through at a steady pace rather than in continuous high volume. The hand-press action gives the operator direct control over extraction, and the absence of a motor means no noise, no warm-up time and no mechanical complexity to manage mid-service. For brunch operations, cocktail counters using fresh citrus throughout the day, or juice bars preparing to order, it holds up well under regular daily use.
The practical advantages centre on simplicity and hygiene:
- No electrical connection required — can be positioned anywhere on the counter
- Stainless steel strainer is durable and straightforward to sanitise between service periods
- Disassembles quickly for thorough cleaning in a matter of minutes
- Compact footprint suits smaller bars, café counters and prep areas
- No motor or electronic components means reduced long-term maintenance requirements
Because the ECM needs no power supply, there are no installation prerequisites beyond a stable counter surface. Positioning it near a wash point makes the cleaning routine more practical, but there are no drainage, ventilation or electrical requirements to plan around.
This extractor is well suited to cafés, small restaurants, hotel breakfast operations and bar counters where fresh citrus juice is prepared to order. It is not intended for continuous batch production — sites with high-volume or uninterrupted juice output would be better served by a motorised extractor with greater throughput capacity.
If you are weighing up whether the ECM fits your service volumes or counter layout, the team is happy to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The ECM is designed for regular, to-order juice preparation rather than continuous batch production. In a café or bar setting it performs well across a steady stream of individual orders throughout the day, but it is not the right tool if your operation requires uninterrupted high-volume output — in that case a motorised extractor with greater throughput capacity would be a more practical choice.
- There are no electrical, plumbing or ventilation requirements. The ECM simply needs a stable, level counter surface. Positioning it near a sink or wash point will make the cleaning routine easier to manage, but beyond that there is nothing to plan around before putting it into service.
- It is suited to standard citrus varieties including oranges, lemons, limes and grapefruits. As a hand-press extractor it works best with fruits that fit the press cone properly, so very large or unusually shaped fruit may require halving to size before pressing.
