Re: Recommend a good juicer??
I have an Omega 8005
Cost - about $260.00
The Omega Model 8005 Nutrition Center is Omega's newest single gear, masticating juice extractor that will serve all of your
juicing needs and many other needs, such as mincing, grinding, homogenizing, etc.
The 8005 model replaces the 8002 model. Both models use the single gear extraction method, and feature a patented auger that features two stage juice extraction which helps to increase yield over other single stage auger juicers. In addition, there are less parts to clean with the 8005 than with the previous 8001 and 8002 models.
This unit is a "multiple use" appliance that actually does all of its uses very well. Most appliances that are built for more than one use tend to compromise one task or another. But the Omega Model 8005 Nutrition Center excels at all of its functions.
The 8005 auger turns at a low 80 RPMs to ensure that nothing is lost through heated elements in your juice. This low speed also helps the Omega 8005 foam less than a double gear style juicer.
This heavy-duty juicer features a patented, stone mill-like screw, made of hygienic U.S. FDA-approved melamine, which prevents poisonous heavy metals from mixing with your fresh juices.
The Omega 8005 Nutrition Center's low speed of 80 RPM's ensures full taste and the highest nutritional value.
The Omega 8005 Nutrition Center is easy to assemble and disassemble for quick cleaning.
The Omega 8005 Nutrition Center assures you many years of trouble-free, dependable service. Ten-year warranty on all parts and labor.
Vegetable and Fruit Juice Extractor
Omega 8005 Nutrition Center efficiently juices fruits and vegetables. It will even juice citrus fruits, usually one of the hardest fruits to juice. In addition, it will juice vegetables like carrots, beets, celery, peppers, and radishes without destroying the natural flavor and nutritional benefits. Fresh taste and full nutrition are guaranteed with this unique extraction process.
Wheatgrass and Leafy Greens
Wheatgrass, kale, chard, cabbage, spinach, and pine tree needles are just some of the natural products that can be juiced with the Omega 8005 Nutrition Center. Enjoy the best that nature offers in raw foods of all kinds and juice them for full nutritional benefits.
Food Processor
The Omega 8005 Nutrition Center cops and minces, proving natural flavor and nutrition from garlic, scallions, red pepper, ginger and most other foods, including herbs and seasonings. Soft foods for special diets (i.e. babies and geriatric patients) are quick and easy to prepare with the mincing set-up.
Homogenizer
Make fresh frozen desserts, natural baby food and nut butters using your fresh ingredients. Tip: Try peeling some ripe bananas, freezing in a zip lock bag, and then put them through the 8005!
Grinder
Grind coffee beans, flour and even boneless meats
