Cleaning your juicer
Posted by: Anonymous User ()
Date: July 06, 2008 08:21PM

I have the Jack LaLane Juicer and I scrub it, put it in the dishwasher twice, let it soak...but it refuses to get clean!! It always still looks dirty. Maybe the fruits and vegetables just stain the plastic?

Anyone have any tips or advice? It's driving me crazy!

An occasional hard scrubbing with baking soda.. that and to clean the juicer right after juicing. It takes me 5 minutes to casually clean mine after each use, but you're right about the stains.. they take a LOT of scrubbing to get it looking really clean again.. and I get to thinking there must be an easier way...

hope this helps

Orange colored?

Carrots stain it easily. When I first got mine, I was obsessed with washing it right after juicing and it still stained. Now i don't care so much.

Look for some kind of little stiff brush too to make the scrubbing easier. The one that came with mine is kind of weak.

I heard that the Lalaynne juicer is particularly hard to clean. So it might just be the material it's made from or something. I don't have too many problems with my breville. Just gotta clean it ASAP when I make something.
Every once and awhile I put it in the dishwater but not nearly every use.

well i don't care if it is stained
natural artistic coloring
the juicer probably needs a bit of pizazz

why not splash it with an orange dye a la carrots or fuschia pomegranate hue a la beets?

art ain't dirty tongue sticking out smiley

b'sides

as long as the juicer makes me juice
i am dang happy

if it has a bit of coloring to it

even better!

The underside of a Juicer stains worse than the outside. The 'pretty', slick side is out. So usually, when the Juicer is assembled, you don't see the stains. I don't worry about a little staining, and always just rinse with cold water, seldom using any soap......WY
