Making Wheatgrass Juice Using a Dedicated Juicer

By Jane Chalmers

Wheatgrass juicers are different from the commonly found vegetable and fruit juicers. Normal juicers are not very suitable for taking out wheatgrass juice as wheatgrass has tough fibers which are more difficult to process.

The wheatgrass juicer operates much more slowly which reduces the heat produced and, therefore, lessons the damage any heat does to the important nutrients. They basically come in two types, manual or electric.

Since wheatgrass juice consists of around seventy percent chlorophyll, removing the juice out of the blades of wheatgrass is the most vital part and should be done effectively. For this reason electric juicers are mostly recommended. Electric juicers can be used by people who need to use less force and want it to be easily moveable.

The are numerous models available such as the Miracle MJ-500, the electric auger juicer and many different stainless steel hand operated models. The price range varies, but usually around 175 to 200 dollars.

A common choice is the Miracle MJ-500 juicer, which is easy to operate, is self feeding, light weight and has a corrosion proof stainless steel shaft which is long lasting and strong. When operating this machine it is important to preserve motor life by turning it off after ten minutes of use. It does come with a one year warranty.

A new variety to the market is the electric auger juicer, but it is fast becoming a best seller. They are made of very high quality components which are meant to last a lifetime. It is not only useful for making wheatgrass juice, however, as it can be used for baby food, nut butters and soya milk. These features make it a great bargain to buy and it gives you the choice of mixing the juice with another type of food.
