champion juicer, again sorry.....

[Guest guest]

Thanks, again for all your guidance in my search for a juicer. There

are a lot around, all the 2000+. No one can tell me if this is the

professional model or domestic. Some of you said it was important to

get the professional. Is there really that much difference? Online

the price difference is only $20, but they are a lot more than

local. I have found them locally, brand new for as little as $199.

 

Any thoughts? I have had too many bad experiences with Ebay and just

don't want to go that route.

 

Thanks, again.

A professional model is always the best bet for a raw vegan since we juice a lot

more often then then normal SAD diet person out there. These models are made for

a lot of use and can stand up to the job well.

Hi Tammy,

 

I use and test all variety of veg prep equipment. For what the

Champion is good for, it is the best. What is it good for? Making

veg pates, frozen banana and fruit " ice cream " , grinding seeds (with

the grain mill attachment). It does a pretty good job juicing most

things (NOT wheat grass). On the things it juices the pulp isn't as

dry as it would be on a machine like a green power, but you can use

the pulp for other stuff and green power type thing SUCKS unless you

are juicing a ton of wheat grass. The green power things are a big

pain to assemble, disassemble and clean (real heavy too). If you

juice soft stuff in a green power it will back up the feed chute and

applesauce consistency stuff will get all over everything. The Omega

is an OK compromise between a Campion and a green power. It all

depends on what you want to use the thing for. I have about 20

juicers and have tried them all for the purpose of deciding what to

sell in my new store. I'm not a fan of separating juice from the

fiber, so I don't personally keep a machine for that in my kitchen

and on wheat grass juice, I find it way more convenient to simply buy

it frozen.

 

In my kitchen the must have machines are the Champion (more powerful

one, with grain mill), Food processor, most any work & any with a

continuous discharge chute are better, a powerful blender with

variable speed, unfortunately Vita Mix has this pretty well locked up

(at the moment).

 

Other must have (for me) stuff are ceramic knives (DON'T use a glass

cutting board), a variety of peelers (I have 20 for testing), a V

blade mandolin slicer (ALL the straight or single angle ones don't

work well regardless of price) Unfortunately the V blade one doesn't

have a hand guard as good as I want, so I will be making one soon.

Also indispensable is a good spiral vegetable slicer that can make

angel hair, spaghetti, linguini or ribbon cuts of various

vegetables. On the spiral slicer the top crank handle ones are

pathetic and the white plastic one is pretty bad too. So I had a

better one made and everyone I gave one to is chasing me for more, so

I'll make the first production batch in about a month.

 

Tell me exactly what you want to use a juicer for and I'll tell you

what I think the best choice would be.
