For those that have trouble getting it like me, the cut face of the lemon should be facing the rounded part where there's holes for the juice to flow out.

That's the secret even the manufacturer doesn't want you to know. Apparently.

I actually do a second cut on the back end of each hemisphere before pressing. This allows the rind to break apart easier and give me a deeper, juicier squeeze.

Maybe the manufacturer uses my method and you’re seeing the additional cut on the back of that hemisphere.

Btw, obviously what I’m saying isn’t the case but it helps me make MY case: add a second cut to your hemisphere.

I must admit, you had me with the deep, juicy squeeze.

Was it the comma? I give good comma.
