Just ordered a Vitamix...finally decided to do it. Very excited!! I've been having a very hard time. I was tired of constantly cleaning to juicer & finding something to do with the pulp or composting it. I believe I was getting discouraged. I know this will perk me back up. It better!!
When ya'll juice beets, do you peel or just clean them well? Do you juice the greens & beets at the same time or can it be an overload? If ya'll remember, back in the summer I juiced 3 large beets in my juicer & overloaded myself.
Do you peel soft skinned fruit like papaya, mango, cukes, etc. I know to do others. thanks.

Hi Margoss ~ Asking your peeling questions, now is this for a juicer or for juicing in the VM or for a smoothie?

When I juice beets, I peel them because mine are usually need it because of the dirt that lingers in the nooks and crannies. Yes, I juice the greens at the same time. Hope this helps. *Ü*

If you're using it for juicing you're still going to have the issue of what to do with the pulp.
