IS IT EASY TO USE?
The initial set up of the Omega J8006 Juicer can be a tad confusing, but the parts
Are easy to assemble. It takes under a minute to put it together. Juicing requires a
little preparation because the feeding chute measures 1.5 inches across. You will
Need to slice larger vegetables and fruit to fit them down the tube. Juicing is almost
effortless. Use the plunger to push items down the chute as needed. Try not to put
Too much down the tube at once because you might clog it. The machine has a
reverse function that unclogs it. If that doesn't work, simply pull it apart, rinse and
put it back together. After you finish, feel free to take the pulp and run it back
through the juice extractor. This allows for maximum extraction.
IS IT EASY TO CLEAN?
Not only is it effortless to use, it is just as simple to clean. While the attachments are top
Rack dishwasher safe, it's far better to clean the parts once you finish using your
home juicer. The buildup on the parts will harden, making them more difficult to
clean off. Besides, it only requires a few minutes to wash and rinse off everything.
Disassemble the electric juicer and rinse the parts before placing them in hot, soapy
water. Use the cleaning brush to scrub the pulp that gets caught in the juicing screen
and the sieve.
JUICE QUALITY
This masticating juicer is effective at extracting juice slowly, reducing oxidation
therein producing healthier juice. Store this up to 72 hours in the refrigerator.
However, you should drink it as soon as you can. Not only will it taste better, you
will absorb more nutrients. You see, since the juice sits, the nutrients Start to break
down.
NON-JUICING FUNCTIONS
Not only it can help you prepare healthy juices, it also serves additional functions to
Provide variety in your juicing routine--food processor, homogenizer, pasta maker,
coffee grinder.
It can be used as a food processor to chop your meat, fish, fruits, and vegetables into
fine pieces for any meal you're planning. This mincing/grinding ability also allows
you to prepare ingredients for marinades, salsas, soups, and sauces. Additionally, it
can also process soaked rice and beans producing a puree-like consistency.
If you feel like eating healthy frozen desserts, feel free to freeze your juice into ice
Cubes then let the machine turn it into a cold healthy treat by adding milk, yogurt
and other ingredients to your heart's content. This homogenizer function can also be
used to make nut butters and baby food.
The complementary nozzles can be used to make pasta of varying shapes and sizes,
You're able to choose between a round or a flat noodle; better yet you can add some flavor
to your pasta to make a Korean style u-dong noodles. Nozzles with larger opening
can be used to form bread sticks. The bad news is you still have to prepare your
dough.
You can even grind your own coffee beans for a fresh cup of java with this machine.
Some coffee beans (especially gourmet coffees) have higher oil content, this have to
be dried overnight for easier processing.
WHAT KINDS OF PRODUCE CAN IT JUICE?
This juice press can process soft and hard produce, leafy greens, citrus fruits, beans
and nuts.
Hard produce include sweet potato, asparagus, ginger, pear, coconut, cauliflower,
celery, carrots, pepper, beets, garlic, pumpkin, cucumber, turmeric, watermelon,
bitter gourd, fennel, broccoli, pineapple, cilantro, apple, and yakon.
Green leafy vegetables such as spring onion, pine tree needles, kale, parsley,
cabbage, brussels sprout, moringa, lettuce, beet greens, dandelion greens, romaine
lettuce, spinach, wheatgrass, basil, peppermint and collard greens.
Citrus fruits like lemon, orange, grapefruit, mandarin, lime and tangerine.
Juicers are not made for soft fruits but if you're thinking of making purée, that's
doable. Soft fruits such as avocado, blackberry, mango, pomegranate, grapes,
strawberry, peach, melon, tomato, papaya, kiwifruit and cranberries can be turned
Into a purée but I'm not sure about the quality. Soft fruits are more ideal for making
smoothies.
