66 Green Star™ Elite - The Health Juicer
Recommendations
The trick:
Juicing fresh aloe vera leaves
Cut off a piece of aloe vera leaf that is two
fingers wide and juice it while adding some
water and apples or oranges Only juice and
drink 60 g of aloe vera per day and person
due to the laxative effect of aloin For a
sumptuous taste, juice with two oranges
Stalk Vegetables
Examples: rhubarb, celery stalks,
asparagus, etc.
Cut them lengthwise The Green Star™ Elite
Health Juicer grasps the vegetables and pulls
them in without your having to help out with
the Plastic plunger (9)
Root vegetables
Carrots: Cut off the green ends (they taste bit-
ter) Cut through thick carrots lengthwise and
insert the pointed ends first If desired, add a
few walnuts Close the Outlet Adjusting Knob
(14) tightly
Beetroot:
Juice with skin.
Potatoes, sweet potatoes: Juice young pota-
toes with their skin The starch separates within
a few minutes Can be mixed well with carrot
juice A good basis for soups and stewed dis-
hes
Fruit
Pineapples: Remove the skin, cut in slices
crosswise (not lengthwise). Soft pineapple
can block up the screen. If this happens,
interrupt the juicing for a moment to rinse
off the screen.
Apples and pears: Juice with skin and core.
Use crisp varieties!
Soft fruit : (strawberries, raspberries, bilberries,
currants, gooseberries and so on): remove stipe
and petal if it suits so (please take a look at
page 28)
Melons:
Remove skin and large seeds.
Grapes: Remove stems
Stone fruit (peaches, nectarines, cherries, etc ):
Remove stone
Citrus fruit: (oranges, grapefruits, tangerines,
lemons):
Remove peel; seeds can be left in.
Plums, Apricots, nectarines, peaches, cran-
berries: Wash well to remove fuzz. Creates
juice with a sauce or puree-like consisten-
cy. Excellent as fruit sauce or dessert. You
can add honey, cream, or lemon juice, if
desired.
Soft Fruit Varieties
The crisper the fruit, the easier it is for the Green
Star™ Elite Health Juicer to extract its juice See
pg 61 for tips on juicing soft fruit and vege-
tables
Currants
The currant is the fruit that is the most dif-
ficult to juice.
The Green Star™ Elite Juice Extractor can also
juice currants However, one must be particu-
larly attentive The problem is attributed to the
fact that the currant pulp often plugs the Pulp
outlet (15) Then the tension in the housing in-
creases considerably There is a risk of the hou-
sing rupturing if the constant ejection of pulp is
not ensured For this reason, only juice currants
by alternating them with 50 % currants and 50
% crisp apples (do not use soft apples) and af-
ter juicing approximately 150 g currants, open
the drain plug 15 halfway or remove it Once
the pulp continues to be ejected, you can redu-
ce the amount of apples added in alternation
