A citrus fruit juice extractor wherein a whole citrus fruit is squeezed between a pair of opposed cups to force the juice-bearing internal portions of the fruit into a strainer tube and wherein an orifice or plunger tube is driven upwardly within the strainer tube concurrently to force juice and some minute solid material through the perforations in the strainer tube is disclosed herein. The extractor includes a juice collection manifold having separate chambers arranged along the length of the strainer tube to receive juice extracted through separate portions of the strainer tube. Since the juice expressed through the end of the strainer tube that is farthest from the cups is subjected to considerably less pressure than the juice forced from the upper end of the strainer tube adjacent the cups, such juice component collected in the associated lower chamber of the manifold has less undesirable fruit material suspended therein than that of the juice in the upper chamber of the manifold.
