Re: [cancercured] Juicer questions.



Hi Linda,
I have used my Greenstar HP3 Champ for years and absolutely love it. It
does everything advertised and I have never had a problem or had to replace
a part. It was well worth every penny I spent on it. It has the twin gears
and doesn't heat up the vegetables, fruit, or grasses which is a huge plus
in the nutrition category.

For easy clean up I stop up the sink and fill it with water and a few drops
liquid Dawn; take the juicer apart and place the parts in the water soak.

Let the parts soak while you enjoy your juice first.

I use a little natural bristle brush scrubber. Within a few minutes clean up
is done. RawGuru . com is having a sale or you can google for a better
price.
Hope that helps.

Subject: [cancercured] Juicer questions.

I'm just at this moment researching these blender-type juicers. I have an
Omega juicer, but find that the cleanup is just too cumbersome for the
amount of juice you get. And, if you believe the premise that you want to
drink freshly juiced fruits and veggies for the most nutrients, it has
becokme clear that I'm not going to take the time to clean up several times
a day.

So, I've been looking at the emulsifier-type blenders, like the VitaMix. I
like that you can put in whole fruits and veggies, and it pulverizes even
cores. I was just about to go online to buy a VitaMix when I read Nancy's
comments:

"I use the HP3Champ juicer. It costs $400. It is 3 horsepower,
more powerful then the Vita-mix. It will pulverize even an avocado pit,
which you can eat."

So, I went to the BlendTec site, and I'd love to hear from people who are
more knowledgeable than I am about this.

The VitaMix shows 52 different things the VitaMix can do, including chopping
and pulverizing pineapple cores and such, and making ice cream and making
hot soups. The BlendTec has far fewer videos, and doesn't seem to show the
same range. I mean, I'd expect just about any blender to make baby food and
pancake mix and fondue. If it can pulverize and avocado pit, and therefore
I assume also an apricot pit, why don't they do a demo showing that?

The VitaMix also has a separate dry container for doing grains and things.
Why doesn't the BlendTec?

The VitaMix has a DVD, which, as a complete novice, I was really looking
forward to. None for BlendTec?

I'll hold off on my purchase until I hear from others here who are more
knowledgeable....thanks for your timeLinda
