We've used this juicer for some 12 years - our first one was aluminum.  We found that freezing some fruits helps in making more juice available on steaming.  Must break down cell walls.  It won't work for jams, we can't get enough pulp to come thru even though we use a potato masher to get all the juice.

Mark, I really can't say what comes through. I wondered if crushing the berries would help extract more juice (the instructions say to cut larger fruit such as apples, peaches etc.) The book that co0mes with it says that the vitamins and sugars remain in the juice.
