I have not tried sweet potatoes, but I believe you can. I tried it on beets and its the same type as a sweet potatoes. This juicer seems strong enough to get a sweet potatoes juiced up :)

Idaho potatoes don't steam well at all because of their high starch content. I'd use red or true sweet potatoes. But for that type of potato I'd cut them into no less than 10 pieces. Steam for a minimum of 20 minutes using very little ventilation. (watch the steam water levels always) G

Yes, I make sweet potato fries often. I am going to try rutabaga fries next just for fun.

Yes. If you want a juice(as in something with no pulp or fiber or nutrients), make a blend of veggies AND fruit, and use a cheesecloth to get all of the pulp out, then drink the juice.

A sweet potato is pretty dense. It does work best if you use the blade for apples. The others scare me like they will break from pushing down so hard.

yes, but not citrus fruits. Also you may need to strain the juice with a kitchen strainer to get rig of some excess pulp.

Yes it does. I have used it for recipes that call for romaine or iceberg lettuce as well. All have been juiced successfully. This is a fantastic device! I am discovering it's just a matter of finding what I like juiced as far as taste goes but all my juicing attempts have gone well.

Not according to the instructions on my bag. I did not. I cook sweet potatoes because they taste better and they are much healthier for you.

Yes. I have made sweet potato fries several times. I microwaved the sweet potato for 1 minute 20 seconds and after trimming it to fit on the machine it worked great. Note: I did use the larger opening blade for the fries, have not tried the smaller ones on a sweet potato yet. I am saving the the trimmed portion of the sweet potatoes in a freezer bag and will use them to make mashed sweet potatoes.

Yes. Use the "hard fruit" setting on the Breville juicer. I put a small piece of raw ginger in my carrot, cucumber, celery juice every day and it's great. Of course, there isn't a great deal of juice in ginger, so don't expect a lot of juice, but what you do get is extremely potent.

Yes, but you must hold them in the palm of your hand. Suggest heating limes briefly in micro before juicing to get maximum juice.

We do often do sweet potatoes, but have done them a few times and yes it does work well. I love mine so much I bought one for my brother. I'm sure you will enjoy yours.

I haven't tried squeezed raw potatos from my press but I'd think it would work as long as you kept the portions small. The press container will hold about 1 quart of fruit, etc. When I was pressing currant berries, I found that it worked better if I didn't try to squeeze a whole quart and instead pressed out smaller portions. Takes longer of course, but it worked for me. My guess is the same would work for potato.

You can juice oranges & grapefruit with the peels using the Big Boss, but it's best not to because it will make your juice taste just like the peel. You can however, juice lemons & limes with the peel on. No on juicing bananas and avocados, but it will make nut milk. It has handled all of the vegetables I've used, carrots, sweet potatoes, beet roots, greens, etc.

Yes. It works well for me. I haven't compared it with other juicers, but all the vegetables that are more dense - like ginger, beets, potatoes, carrots - juice really well.

Yes!! And one of my favorite things is orange juice with it . The only thing you shouldn't do is super soft fruit like bananas or avocados. But you can juice other fruits/veggies and then throw that juice in with a banana or avocado. Check out juicemaster.com

Yes, I have even used raw beets in a juice drink and the vita mix did well. No chunks, totally blended smooth. Of course the recipe would have another liquid in it.
