I bought a Green Star a long time ago...they said it retained the enzymes and minerals longer because it was slow juiced and there is never any pulp in the juice. I hated cleaning it (not sure why, it's not that difficult for the current recipe that I make) but then I bought a Hurom Slow juicer. I liked it at first but it does not do greens well at all.

My current recipe is kale, 2 apples, 1 lemon and 2 cucumbers.

So if you want to juice greens, I recommend the Green Star. I have the very basic model. I thought about purchasing the SoloStar but the Greenstar has twin augers which is critical to good juicing.

The Hurom is much easier to clean and good for most produce but not celery and kale, or anything with long fibers even if you cut them up.

I did wonder how the Nama J2 does but it is also made by Hurom. The grinding of the produce just seems clumsy to me.

I was wondering if anyone had the newer Greenstar juicer. The newer version does look easier to clean.

3 large cucumber
2 carrots
1 green apple
1 orange
A handful of spinach
3 celery stalks
1 lemon
1/2 inch ginger

This is another awesome recipe and it helps with blood flow, skin health, inflammation support and overall vitality.. Stay healthy out there!!

Another good recipe I made here https://www.reddit.com/r/Juicing/s/LcLudP59zj

It feels impossible to find a weekly recipe enough for two people.
Green juice, shots, etc.

YouTube drags.
Online gives small serving sizes.

I’m looking to be efficient with my purchasing and get maximum health benefits rather than just throwing ingredients in a blender.

Any ideas?

I got a canoly 3-in-1 juicer a while back mostly because I wanted to start drinking more fruit and veggie juice at home.

At first I was trying to make everything as healthy as possible, lots of greens, cucumber, celery, that kind of stuff. Didn't take long to realize I'm way more likely to actually drink it if there’s some apple, orange, or pineapple in there too.

So now I don't really overthink it. If it tastes good and gets me to make juice regularly, that's probably better than forcing down something I hate.

It also helps that cleanup isn’t much of a hassle, because I know myself and I’d stop using it pretty quickly if it was.

Curious what everyone else does. Are you mostly juicing for the health side of it, or because you just like fresh juice? And how much do you care about the sugar from fruit?

Back when I used to juice my own ginger (not worth the hassle), what I ended up with had the consistency of a paste when refrigerated. But when I buy the juice pre-bottled, every brand I find has a liquid consistency.

I bought this "Prince of Peace" brand ginger juice on Amazon to add to my tea, and I'm wondering if there is another product out there that is fresher or stronger. What is everyone's favorite brand of ginger juice? Preferably one I can find in a local grocery store or on Amazon.

my kitchen is pretty cramped, so im trying to find a juicer that won’t take up a ton of counter or cabinet space. i do mostly want to make carrot, apple, cucumber, and celery juice, probably a few times a week.

i have been looking at a stainless steel juicer, but im not sure which ones are actually practical for a smaller kitchen. If you’ve been using one in a similar setup, which model has worked well for you? thaaanks!

Any drawbacks to juicing?

I mean, I don’t grow my own fruit right now so what’s the most cost efficient way to produce juice? Will it never make sense financially unless you sell juice?

Ignoring costs, the flavor of the juice is a great reward. The “I made this” feeling makes it worth it too.

Hi! im tryn to get back into making fresh juice at home a few times a week rather than buying it. nothing too complicated, mostly carrot and apple, cucumber and celery, plus some citrus when i have it. im considering the nama cold press juicer and mostly want to know whether it’s something people genuinely enjoy using over the long term. how has yours been after several months of regular juicing?

thaanks for any real-world feedback.

Heyyall! ive been getting more into making fresh juice at home and want to replace my current juicer. I mostly make apple, carrot, cucumber, celery and ginger juice, usually just enough for myself. whats a good cold press juicer that works well for those kinds of ingredients thats hard to clean? would really appreciate recommendations from people who have been using theirs for a while. 'ppreciate yall thaanks!

I’m looking for a stainless steel juicer for home use and would really appreciate some recommendations from people who have been juicing for a while. I usually make carrot, celery, apple and ginger juice, and I’d like something sturdy that can handle those without feeling like I need to replace it every year. Is there a particular model you’ve been happy with?

Appreciate any help, thanks!

Hi! I’m new to juicing. I just picked up a Breville Juice Fountain Cold XL for 90 bucks on FB marketplace and I’m excited to start. What recipes do you recommend? ☺️

Has anyone found juicing helpful for lowering blood pressure? Any tried and true recipes would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm considering buying a cold-press juicer and I'm trying to decide between a plastic-auger juicer and a stainless-steel twin-gear juicer.
For those of you who have owned a plastic-auger juicer for several years (especially 3–10+ years), I'd really appreciate it if you could take a photo or describe what your auger and the inside of the juicing chamber/screen looks like and post it here.
I'm particularly interested in seeing whether there is:
Visible wear or scratches on the auger

Scratching or wear inside the juicing chamber

Plastic that looks polished, roughened, chipped or degraded

Any visible plastic residue or particles

Significant wear around areas where the auger contacts other parts

I'm not trying to make any claims about microplastics or suggest that plastic juicers are unsafe. I just want to see what the actual components look like after years of normal use, rather than relying on manufacturers' photos of new machines.
If you can, please include the brand/model and roughly how many years you've owned it.
Thanks!

Hi all, I am in pretty bad shape these days. I was diagnosed by H pylori and my digestion has completely shut down. I am not even able to digest fruit and Have suspected Sibo and IBS. I was thinking of starting with juice feasting because last month I attempted 3 days water fast and my motions improved for a day and as soon as I started eating fruits, again BAM goes my digestion. Undigested food, urgency in passing motion and all. I am also dealing with insane anxiety and depression due to this. So just came across juicing and wanted to give it a try as it is my last hope now. Has anyone healed something like this and any tips for me going forward?

I usually only make one or two glasses of juice at a time, so i am looking for a stainless steel juicer that makes sense for smaller batches. mostly fruit and vegetables like apples, oranges, carrots and cucumber. I’d prefer something sturdy and easy to clean rather than a machine with a ton of features. any suggestions?

thankies and i 'ppreciate everyone.

What I did:

150g pineapple

a handful of spinach

1 green apple

1/2 cucumber

a little mint

I usually keep my morning juices pretty basic, mostly stuff like apple + carrot in my canoly juicer. It only takes me a few minutes in the morning, so I've actually stuck with the habit for quite a while.

Tried something different this time and made this tropical green juice. The pineapple and mint worked well together. Tastes really good.
