Juicing Wheatgrass and Ginger

[jcjjianheng]

IZ!!!! Start your day with those tunes and juice means pure awesomeness all day!

[toprooms1]

thanks, where did u buy the juicer and how hard/easy is to clean?

[splifford]

@toprooms1 If I remember correctly I got it at Adorama in Brooklyn. I think I paid $215. I'm sure you can still get it for around $200.

Wheat grass is very potent tasting stuff-but its almost sickeningly sweet-and your adding agave? Dude-now thats super sweet ! I do like juiced ginger-potent stuffs. I generally juice a carrot celery apple ginger and have it ready after my shot of grass as a chaser. To each his own. Forget about Whole Foods-grow your own. That stuff gets mighty expensive bought from the store-and the store boughts not as fresh. Peace out.

turn off the crap in the back so we can hear the machine work

[splifford]

@icicicles the video is 2 years old and guess what - can't turn off the crap in the back of a video thats already made and posted

@splifford

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound rude. I was a little annoyed of the music cuz I'm trying to study all the juicers to get the one that fits my needs. Hearing them run is a important part also. Again, Sorry!

[splifford]

@icicicles No problem - ask me anything and i'll be happy to answer. I've had the juicer over 2 years and no issues at all. It's not loud. It's high torque low speed to prevent heat from destroying juice's vitamins. The only possible complaint I have is that the impeller plastic (or whatever it's made of) has worn down a bit in places but not enough to change the capablilities at all.

@icicicles Plastic of the feeder is also looking slightly aged with minute hairlines in it but it's still perfectly intact.

you know you dont need to drink more then 4 oz in one day. any more then that is pointless.

[splifford]

@oceans7891 Thanks - I don't

I went Vegan 10 days ago! just left Brklyn where I picked up a Vegetarian Roti and drank my first shot of wheatgrass juice and ginger. It reminded me of the first time I chewed tobacco and accidentally swallowed. I thought I was gonna throw up! However, they say this stuff is amazing for ya. So, I would drink it again for the health benefits! I typed it in Google to find out more about it and son of a gun, my old friend Matt! What's up Brother! Good to see you! Great minds think alike! (;

[splifford]

@okgreatful hey there - who are you?

[ndufcat]

Did you try the carrot cake with the carrot pulp? How did it go. I reckon muffins too or maybe use it to thicken stews perhaps...

[madonnabeso]

classy with the cup! i love it! cool video thanks a lot!

[newgtguy]

I just bought the Omega 8006. Should arrive today. Can't wait to start juicing!

[nisaje]

What does it feel like when "it gets you?"

[kiheitek100]

I have the same Omega 8005. Wheatgrass smells & taste gross, but it's super healthy. I sometimes mix it with a fruit blend. Thanks for posting a demo.

[4000angels]

i would try to forgo the agave and any other sweeteners.  if necessary, maybe an apple or banana. nice vid otherwise.

[splifford]

@4000angels Good idea!

[damastamind1]

did you know that if you rejuice the pulp you get twice as much juice? ginger? good idea.

[splifford]

Not sure if you get literaally twice the juice, but you do get some. It's an insignificant amount and gets messy. I do want to find a use for the carrot pulp..i'm thinking carrot cake.

[blueeggsitter]

Love the Hawaiian music in the background! What are you listening to? What benefits are you reaping from your wheatgrass?

Breakfast of champions, less the agave.
