silly Omega 8003 juicer question

[firefaery]

I just bought the aforementioned juicer and I researched everything but one thing. Hopefully someone can help me: does it eject pulp? How much can you juice before having to stop and clean it? Am I going to regret this? I really wanted to be able to continuously juice. TIA.

Yep! It's continuous. The juice and pulp come out seperately.

The pulp comes out the end with the rubber ring, kinda like a gun :)

When I first got it I didn't know that the rubber could let stuff pass through, but it works!

SmilingRawDancer,
I have had mine for a few weeks now, I have really only juiced with it. Loving that, I really bought it for the juicing, but was excited about the other fuctions too. The juice I have been making has little bits of yummy velvet in it, like creme de la' creme. I just don't like the time it takes having to cut the veggies so small. Have you done anything else with it? What are you juicing?

[SmilingRawDancer]

I bought it for juicing greens, mainly :) So I do something acidic and then spinach, romaine, kale...etc :)

I love it. The small hole NEEDS TO BE UPDATED if a new model is ever made...but it's great. I have yet to try making nut butters etc.

I have the Omega 8005 (which is the same, but chrome) and I love to make ice cream out of frozen bananas, alternate with other frozen fruits or berries, and then stir that together in the bowl. I love how easy it is to clean, and how quiet it is!!!

I just got one and like the ease of cleaning, but strongly dislike how long it takes to make juice and the little hole. For me, it's too time-consuming to make a large amount of juice for the day to take to work.

yes, this juicer takes a little loving time and attention, but it's very versatile.

Do you mix it with acidic juices for any particular reason? Does it make it easier to digest?

Sounds like you would have liked the Brevel big mouth juicer that spins at 13000 rpms compared to the Omega 3 189 rpms. The Breville will juice a huge amount of juice very fast except it is centrifical and creates more heat which destroys some of the enzymes, but it is really really fast and you can drop whole apples in the mouth,even watermelon slices rind and all. I like the slower juicers because they give you more nutrients and the Omega 8003 will do wheat grass.
