Thank you for your interest in Mehu-Liisa

For over twenty five years my father, Osmo Heila, sold the Mehu-Maija and Mehu-Liisa steam juicers from Finland to thousands of satisfied customers. It was his pleasure to provide a home canning and food processing product that is so trouble free, and has been so valued and praised by its owners. I am very happy to continue Mehu-Liisa Products' steam-juicer business and carry on Osmo's high quality service.

Answers To "Frequently Asked Questions"
  1. I've never heard of steam juicers, are they new?
    You've discovered a time-tested, highly praised, kitchen marvel! My father promoted steam juicers here in the US for more than 25 years. Over 50% of our orders come from customer recommendations. We do not spend money on huge advertising bills, we keep our costs low and pass the savings on to you. The Mehu-Liisa has been featured in newspaper articles, on radio shows, and on Web sites around the country. So the good news is getting around!

    Here's a quote I've heard countless times: "I borrowed my friend's juicer and I loved it! Now I would like to get one of my own."
     
  2. How does the Mehu-Liisa Juicer work?
    A gentle steam process opens the juice cells in fruits and vegetables. Then the juice falls into the juice kettle, and you drain it into bottles or jars. No mess!

    "Wonderful! so easy to use" -D.C. Winnemucca, NV
     
  3. Is the Mehu-Liisa complicated to use?
    Not at all! Making juice at home is easy with Mehu-Liisa. Here are the four simple steps: 1) Fill the water pot and place on stove to boil. 2) Rinse fruit, berries, vegetables, etc. and place in steam basket. No need to pit or stem! 3) Steam for 40-70 minutes. 4) Drain pure fresh juice into jars or bottles and seal. It really is that easy. No hassel. No mess. Throw away your cheesecloth bags!

  10. Where is the Mehu-Liisa made?
    I'm proud to say that the Mehu-Liisa is made in Finland (my father's country of birth) by OPA, OY. Finnish products are known for their outstanding quality and design. I sell one of the original steam juicers. Don't be fooled by cheap imitations!

    "On todella hyva ja erinomainen vehje terveisin tytto Suomen Turusta. (This is a really good product, an excellent device. Greetings from a young Finnish lady from Turku)" -Marjukka-
     
  11. Does the heat destroy any of the vitamins?
    The steam only passes through the fruits and then out the lid. That way the juice is never heated too high. Many fruits, especially grapes, loose their vitamin C potency within a few hours of being picked. With Mehu-Liisa you can add some vitamin C (by sprinkling "Fruit Fresh" on top of the fruit in the basket) to enhance the nutritional value of the juice you are making.

    "I use my juicer about once a week for over 40 kinds of fruits. It is wonderful!" -K.W. Auburn, NY
     
  12. Do you sell a cookbook for the Mehu-Liisa?
    Yes, it's free! Each order includes a cookbook with complete instructions and many recipes including mixed juices, desserts, steam cooked foods, and homemade wine.

    "I like mine so much that I can't stop bragging about it, I pass on juicer info to my friends. I'm 75 and still use the juicer for my juices and jellies." -H.B. Scarborough, ME
     
  13. Is the steam process dangerous?
    No, not at all. There is no steam pressure. The Mehu-Liisa is crafted to allow the steam to gently escape through the lid. The only precaution to be aware of is not letting the water pan boil dry.

    "We love our juicer, especially my husband. We use it a lot." -L. H. Winchester, IN
     
  14. How big is the Mehu-Liisa?
    The juicer is only about 16" tall and 11" at the base. It is very easy to hold and fits on household stoves.

    "This is a wonderful tool." -S.P. Oregon, IL
     
  15. What if I don't want to order over the Internet?
    Please call me at 541-514-0106 from 9am-2pm Mon-Fri PST and I will personally take your order over the phone. Or contact me via email with your phone number (including a good time to reach you), and I will pay for the call!

    "The best and most useful product." -H.P. Lompoc, CA
     
  16. How can I become a Mehu-Liisa dealer?
    There are many stores and individuals who are successfully selling Mehu-Liisa Steam Juicers. Many Mehu-Liisa owners have become dealers and they have been selling for many years. Call me at: 541-514-0106 or contact me via email to let me know what kind of business you run or what plans you have for sales as an individual. Then I can give you the details about becoming a wholesale dealer.
     
  17. Do you run any other businesses?
    No. But my father was also the owner of Podunk Cross Country Ski Shop in Trumansburg NY.
