i know the kempo machine...i have used it and it doesn't stand up to the "torture" of pounding greens like kale ,collards and dandelions like the green star. like i said before kempo looks like a toy compared to the real thing. i juice a gallon of kale apple ginger in about half an hour. Kempo has too small of a motor and no cooling fan like the green star. also the squeezing chamber is

yes it doesw take up less counterspace...but modt people will not be traveling with the juicer. as far a cleaning goes...there is very little difference...as anyone who juices knows, cleanup is the part most people sorta hate to do..so naturally it would follow that cleanup is pain no matter what machine you use.
the mental attitude of hating the cleanup only makes it more of a chore. i find

i recently did a thing with kale...i bought a whole case of kale from the produce store and went on a kale apple lemon and ginger program. i juiced approx 3 quart of the combination while doing about 4-5 hours of intensive walking in the fresh air an sunshine.. wow was that that a neat feeling ...kale is powerful for building up the body.

i recommend the book:
juicefasing.....by paavo airola... for a good start on taking out the garbage.
also dr.norman walker has a book on colon health....any of Dr. walkers books are incredible and useful to the neophyte.

for example my detox schedule is a 7 day juicefast ...4 times per year. the body needs to have some kind of schedule for taking out the garbaqe.
evan 36 hours is a good place to start with juicefasting...but there are many detox ideas which can applied to your program. the iudea is to get rid of accumulated stuff.

an interesting thought.
why not view your daily health and nutrition program like a bank account.
good things are a deposit and not so good things would be withdrawls. what is your balance?
juicing could be viewed as "gold mine" for making deposits into your nutritional bank account.
why not add the actual implementation of a good detox schedule and get compound interest o

hi amber
most types and brands of juicers in a generic sense are severly limited in their range of abilities to juice a complete spectrum of plantlife. get off to a good start with a full range of possibilities for using your machine.
the price range you indicate is below the cost of a greenstar, which is top of the line in all respects. save money by getting it right the first time. i have

cheaper type juicers are now showing up in secondhand thrift stores. check it out you may find a nice one to get started with. set a goal for a professional type machine once you have confirmed your committment to juicing. green star is the best,without doubt, for a professional grade machine.

what is the estimated total investment for both?
(supposing one has the kithchen space to handle both machines without cluttering up the food prep area)
with the single augur machines, a back up machine for carrots and hard stuff is a must for any serious amount of juicing,....correct?
a person must decide on how aggressive they are going to be with their juice program above all things.

642. Re: first juicer
one very important point to know about juicers....centrifugal machines such as the omega and l'equip will leave a very wet pulp. this means you are wasting a percentage of juice each time you juice. centrifugals are also noisy andlimited as to what you can put through them...they do not do a decent job on leafy green and wheatgrass at all. the only machines which extract the maximum juice and giv

it sounds as tho you need a blender for what are describing. vita mix is really heavy duty and may be in the "overkill" category. may i suggest a regular blender in the 25 to 50 dollar price range or if you are looking for convenience i can attest to the useful ness of the tribest mini blender. i have one and i use it alot for exactly what you are talking about. the easy clean up will

here is a quote from the book comparing juicers and blenders:
in the first place, the blended carrot isn't nearly as palatable as tasty sweet juice. infact it is somewhat hard to take and to most people palatablity is of vital importance........especially when dealing with children. children wqill take the juice readily and evan with joy and pleasure but you will find it extremely difficult t

if you are seriously considering doing the "wheatgrass thing".....may i suggest getting outfitted with the right tools. nothing is evan close to the green star for wheatgrass juicing..while you are doing the wheat grass thing, you may as well juice some other stuff too. what i'm saying is that it isn't a whole lotta extra work to throw in some veggies after the wheatgrass is done and

the small amount of pulp left inside the machine after jicing is usually not much and my drain takes it down. i help it out by using my fingers to push iit down if it tends to clog up....usually thois is not a problem. maybe your sink drain needs a cleaning.

in that case you may want to look for an online source for a manually operated wheat grass machine. they are rather slow and labor intensive,but they do fine for small quantities. z-star is the one that comes to mind. although i do not have one, i have seen them in operation and they work really well.

blending is really aninferior method of getting juice from wheatgrass. green star is the wheatgrass king! you won't believe how fast it juices the wheatgrass leaving only a bone dry pulp.
as far as destruction of the chlorophyll, i'm not sure. if you like a liyttle coffee or tea, i doubt if it will be destructive in any major way. i would recommend taking the coffee black as the cream and suga

if you are very meticulous, it may take an extraordinary leghth of time to clean your machine. here is how i do it in under 4 minutes.
move machine to edge of sink so the front hangs over the edge a little bit.
next, using the spray hose attachment on your sink, squirt water down the feeding chute and turn machine on. this loosens up the remains inside the juicer. use a few glasses of water

i have found that in most cases wheatgrass properly grown will taste good. by that i mean it is sweet and does not leave an unpleasant aftertaste. alot of people are getting into growing wheatgrass. so i would expect to see the competition between growers will make for better wheatgrass product to the consumer. growing it at home is another way to do it. some companies have wheat grass growing k
