Using Your Green Star Elite
A. Making Juices
1.
Assemble your Green Star Elite with the
Fine Screen
or
Coarse Screen
and the
Juicing Knob
.
2.
Place the
Drip Tray
on the counter underneath the juice outlet and put the
Juice
Pitcher
on top of the drip tray.
3.
Position a large bowl or plastic bag under the
Pulp Outlet
to catch the ejected pulp.
4.
Prepare your vegetables and fruits for juicing and juice them according to the following
instructions:
•
Note:
it is normal for a few drops of juice to come out of the pulp outlet when first
starting juicing. As you continue juicing, only pulp will come out of the pulp outlet.
Type of
Produce
Hard Roots
Grasses
Examples
Carrots,
Beets
Wheatgrass,
Barley Grass
Preparation
Preparation:
Wash all produce and cut into long, thin pieces that can
be easily pushed through the feeding chute. Large carrots should be
split in half lengthwise.
Juicing Knob:
Tighten the juicing knob completely.
Juicing Procedure:
Feed the ‘wedge’ end of the root through the feed-
ing chute first, and press down on the blunt end of the root with the
plastic or wooden plunger. Only insert one piece at a time.
Remember:
The Twin Gears are not blades - you will need to firmly
push carrots into the slowly rotating gears. Cut thicker carrots into
lengthwise halves for easier juicing. The Plastic Plunger does not reach
all the way to the gears - try using the Wooden Plunger to push that last
bit of carrot for complete juicing.
Preparation:
Cut the grasses to the desired length and rinse them.
Juicing Knob:
To begin, tighten the knob completely. Loosen or
remove the knob after the first drops of juice come out of the juice outlet.
Juicing Procedure:
Insert small handfuls of grass, blade tips first into
the feeding chute. Press down with the wooden or plastic plunger if
necessary.
Remember:
Wheatgrass contains a chemical that naturally foams when
it is juiced. Do not be alarmed if foam comes out from the juice outlet.
To minimize foam: Always juice fresh wheatgrass; refrigerate the gears
and wheatgrass for about 2 hours or overnight before juicing; and spray
some cold water on the wheatgrass as you are juicing. If you do not
mind wheat grass juice mixed with carrot juice, you will get maximum
yield on the wheat grass juice with minimum foam by alternating wheat
grass and carrots while juicing.
Note:
Certain batches of wheatgrass may cause more foam than
others! If you notice that your wheatgrass is generating excess foam,
try finding a new source for your wheatgrass.
