ok this is similiar to my question about apples, but for some reason i dont know how to reply to messages lol; so thank you for the replies in that thread
Do you guys recommend peeling the orange?
Also i had a cheaper juicer that had an adapter for oranges where you just cut them in half and then press down on plastic spinner, it would not hurt your hands and obviously the skin was not an issue; Was this a better way to juice an orange quality wise?
thank you Ron
PS actually how do i respond to messages lol, do i go to the link to email so and so?

Many storebought oranges have a slight coating of wax. And it won't be Beeswax.
However, for maximum health leave some of the white/pith at least - Source of Bioflavonoids, but it does tend to make the juice frothy due to the Pectins.
Ideally for straight citrus juice use a press like the Hamilton Beach 932 Commercial Manual Juicer. Don't even bother with the short/stubby ones however...- Re: Besides Pesticides... Mahdrek

This is a reply to # 808,632i dont think apples have wax on them generally.
but i agree with schluggel, i just take the very outer part of the orange peel off with a knife. i leave a lot of the underneath white rind on. the juice is thicker, but it has all kinds of great nutrtients in it.- Re: Besides Pesticides... Mahdrek

This is a reply to # 808,636thank you, is there a reason u use a knife to skin the oranges? is it fine to just use fingers , does using a knife leave more of the skin?

yes, a knife leaves more of the white rind which contains the bioflavanoids and the pectin, you can just trim the outer rind off with a good sharp knife. if you find you don't like the way the white rind juices, then peel with your fingernails and get the whole peel.- Re: Besides Pesticides...

This is a reply to # 807,889The orange peel has a volitle oil that was once used as an incendiary.This oil is indigestable and somewhat bitter to taste.It wont hurt you but I wouldnt recomend consuming it.
