A.
Carrots can be a bit challenging to juice due to their dense nature. Never over
stuff the Chute, always leave some “wiggle room” to avoid jamming the Chute.
Once carrots have been inserted, replace the pusher into the Chute and apply
gentle pressure. This will help stabilize the carrots down the chute.
Q.
Can I add ice or liquid to the Power Juicer?
A.
No, you can not add ice or any liquid to the power juicer.
Q.
How can I get berry juice to come out of the Receptacle?
A.
Follow the berries with a fruit or vegetable that contains a larger volume of
juice. These fruits will produce more juice and push the berry juice through the
Receptacle. If you choose to juice only berries then take the machine apart and
empty juice from Receptacle into a glass or bowl.
Q.
How long does the fresh juice last?
A.
To get the full benefits of fresh juice it is best if you drink it right away. As
fresh juice sits, it looses significant amounts of vitamins and nutrients. Some
juices last longer than others and refrigerate well as long as they are in a sealed
container. They can only be kept for a few hours. Preferably in a glass covered
container so the flavor is not altered.You can add a few drops of lemon juice
to help maintain the flavor. Here is a list of juices that refrigerate well: carrot,
apple, orange, pear, grape, grapefruit, pineapple, kiwi, prune, peach, celery, and
beet juice. You can also freeze fresh juice the same way. Juice can be frozen in
an airtight container for up to one month.
Q.
How long does the pulp last?
A.
Fruit and vegetable pulp can be frozen. It is best if it is in an airtight container
or freezer bag. Discard after one month. We recommend that you use a
separate container or bag for each pulp.
Q.
Is there a customer service number I can call?
A.
Yes, should you have any problems our friendly customer service staff is here
to help you if you have a question? We are available at 800-718-5135.
Q.
Can I use wheatgrass in my Power Juicer?
A.
Yes, it works best if you roll it up in something leafy such as spinach and follow
with something juicy such as pineapple. If you choose to juice wheatgrass alone
just roll it up and insert it in the Power Juicer.
Q.
Can I use cherries whole in my Power Juicer?
A.
Yes, but only if the pits have been removed prior to juicing. A quick, easy way
to do this is by using a cherry pitter.
Q.
Can I use grapes with seeds and stems?
A.
Yes, we recommend you wash them thoroughly prior to juicing.
Q.
Can I put a rind of the melon in the Power Juicer?
A.
Yes, we recommend you wash them thoroughly prior to juicing. We do not
recommend leaving the rind on the cantaloupe due to recent cases
of salmonella contamination. This is a personal preference.
Q.
Can my Power Juicer be used as a food processor? Is there a special
attachment I need?
A.
No, there is no attachment that turns the Power Juicer into a food processor.
However, the Power Juicer leaves behind pulp from the fruits and vegetables that is used
to cook with or freeze to make delicious frozen treats. Use the pulp to make healthy
sauces, salsas, dips, muffins and more.
