How it's used
Focus on the specific function of extracting liquid from produce rather than blending solids. While many people use the term interchangeably with blender, a true device for this purpose is specifically for separating juice from pulp. It is almost exclusively used in a domestic kitchen context.

Common mistake
Learners often confuse this with 攪拌機, which is a blender used for smoothies or purees. Using the wrong term might confuse someone if you are specifically looking for a machine that separates fiber from liquid.
