Hello !

So I soaked my nuts for around 24 hours, and then dehydrated them for a similar amount of time. I then proceeded, this morning, to put my nuts into my Omega NC800 juicer, with the grinding screen (screenless) on. I followed all instructions though within a few minutes nothing was coming out and I noticed juice coming out of where juice from vegetables come out !

In in addition, it was clogged and I could not even seperate the juicer to see what was going on. I noticed it was extremely hot !

Then, I decided to put a few ice packs on top of the juicer, and finally the parts seperated. I opened it up and at the end of the "screen", everything is ROCK HARD. I dont know how this could have possibly happened !? On the inside of the drum cap, on the inside where it dips, there is also rock hard "nut butter" which looks almost like plastic because it has molded.

The only thing I can think I might have done wrong is put a nozzle on. But it says to put it on in the book that came with the juicer !

I bought this juicer used, but have had no problems juicing vegetables and fruits.

Did I screw up? What is going on? Why is the nut butter rock hard? Should I throw this batch away ?

Please help !!!

Thanks

its rock hard because first it became nut buttery ( hot)

then you put a lot of ice on it which "froze" it... hence it is rock hard

so soak it all in water

then clean it out

next time

maybe do very little at a time

so u don't stress out the engine

give engine time to cool

is it working now?
