Green star juicer clogging up.

Date: November 28, 2008 05:45PM Hey everyone.
Just reveived my green star juicer today. It looks pretty nifty and runs quiet etc. One problem I seem to be having is that the pulp casing gets clogged with pulp. Even when I adjust the outlet knob to try and correct it, the problem is still present. Is it normal for the fine screen to get so clogged up too? It even seems as tho the juicer is filling up with juice, as when i look down the feeding chute, i can see the juice and bubbles. Also some juice comes out of the pulp discharge hole at times instead of pulp. I thank you in avdance for your response. Re: Green star juicer clogging up.

called Green Life, and thought it was a lot of trouble to clean. Are you making out any better now?.......WY Re: Green star juicer clogging up.

Yeh i have corrected the problem now. Strangly, i have found that feeding it more and more produce unclogs it and makes everything run smoothly lol. I am very happy with it now and made some amazing juice after work today 
Cheers Re: Green star juicer clogging up.

Date: December 25, 2008 09:00PM Second the Green Star love affair! I have found that mine works best by feeding it different things in succession. Some very moist items, like cucumbers for ex, tend to create a fluid 'cushion' that gets things stopped. Add some lettuce or bulkier dry item, and it will move again. As for the outlet knob, I sometimes even remove it. If the pulp stays very moist I run it through again.
Have you tried parsley yet? Just feed it the stems until the rotating rolls grab on and it will eat them right up. 
Happy juicing! Nibs Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
