Does this model juice wheatgrass well?

Leafy greens are tough. I do it almost every time I juice, but the yield is disappointing. If you roll the wheat grass into a tight ball you will get some juice, but not nearly as much as with a slow juicer.

Hi,We haven't done wheat grass in it. We love the juicer though. Good luck!

I have not juiced wheatgrass with my Breville. When I did my research on it, I had read that it wouldn't juice any greens very well. I don't juice wheatgrass, but I do juice cilantro and all sorts of greens (kale, spinach, chard, etc.) I haven't had any problem with it what-so-ever. When I juice greens - particularly cilantro - I twist the bunch into a rope (sort of - make a tightly packed bunch) and I follow it with something firm - like an apple or carrots. Hope this helps.

I have not tried wheatgrass in it. From everything I've read about juicers, the masticating kind are best for grasses and greens.

I imagine it does, it has 2 containers one for the juice and the other one for the pulp. It works very well for wheatgrass!

I wish I could answer for you. Sorry. We haven't tried the wheatgrass. From everything I've read about extractors, the mechanisms in this style (masticating) are ideal for extracting wheatgrass without heating or destroying enzymes, but I've not tried it personally.

If you have a good juicer. I use kenmore (electric) doesn't do well. I read it on forums and hand crank seems to do the best. I got a hand crank one on amazon but all my grass died before getting the chance.

Yes you can! I have juiced thick kale, celery and many coarse veggies. Not wheat grass yet. In the book it says it works fine. I am not sure about the attachment. Make sure the inner core is well oiled. I use coconut oil so the rotating device with tiny teeth like blades rotate smoothly.

I have the 8008 and I love it I use it for both wheTgrass and juicing.It is very easy to cleanI think the 8007 and 8008 mods are very similar because they use the same parts

I love the 800JEXL as it gives me maximum juice from veggies and fruits. I would not hesitate to recommend this appliance.

Hi Robert and GymLady, I asked Breville the same thing: http://getsatisfaction.com/breville/topics/can_you_juice_wheat_grass Here's there answer: "Great question. We get this one a lot. You can juice leafy greens in your Breville Juicer. The juicers with the lower speeds will work the best. We recommend wrapping and compacting as much as possible, the wheat grass in a lettuce leaf to provide more of a solid structure to extract from. It is much like a cheese grater. It is much easier to grate a block of cheese than a slice of cheese because of the flimsiness. Furthermore, our juicers are essentially made to extract juice from juicy fruits and vegetables, and while they may be able to extract some juice from wheat grass, the optimal type of juicer for this type of substance is a masticating juicer." Hope that helps.

It seems to do a clean job, the green juice is much like a nectar, thick. But no chunks. To be honest, I love this machine. Company really backs their products.

It is perfect for that. You will be shocked when you see how much juice it gets from wheatgrass!

This is the only wheatgrass seeds we use for growning wheatgrass and juicing. We tried some whole foods bulk seeds but these grow much better I do regular and aquaponics type.

If you only want to juice wheatgrass, I recommend getting a juicer designed specifically for wheatgrass. Since they only do one thing well, they are often much less expensive, too.

Good question. I have not tried wheatgrass yet. Based on its power and the way it juices kale, it would be worth trying wheatgrass.

Yes this juicer juices beets well and greens etc., if your peaches and apples are soft they will be mushy, they recommend you use hard fruit ,no jams it chews it very smoothly ,also I juice wheatgrass, as well, also make sorbet , they have a great demonstration on YouTube.com.Best juicer, I highly recommend it. Good luck.
