Hi, for juicing, I want to use the core, too. Is it easy to remove core to add to my juice?

Yes, after using the OXO, the core is left in the cylinder in the middle. You always have to remove it before cleaning the OXO, so you can use the core for whatever you want.

Just cut off the bottom of the pineapple shell after getting the pineapple out and you have the core.

yes. easier than other juicers. takes a few times to get used to it. i will tell u, though-- that we clean the juicer before we enjoy the juice. so-- it does not take long @ all.

I don't think so. I have only used mine for juicing carrots and apples. I am surprised there is so much residue that needs to be scrapped out of the machine when the juicing is done. Not sure how this applies to other machines

I have a masticating juicer. It is true it will get slightly more juice out of Kayle. The only problem with the masticating juicer is that it will not juice other vegetables and fruits. Also the masticating juicer is extremely difficult to clean and a lot more money. Personally I think juicing should be made as easy as possible. It's a lot of work to buy the fruits and vegetables wash them and then Juice them. I don't have time to operate and clean two machines. Unless you only want to use Kayle I would not buy masticating juicer.

I love my juicer. What a machine! I just brought in some key limes to try before answering your inquiry. I was able to juice them by pressing my palm over the limes. Not perfect like the oranges but works.

you should ask the mfg. I always core my fruit, so do not know for sure. would guess yes, but take a bit longer. be sure to use pulse mode to breakup. for all veggies I use a juicer and then put that mix into the blender as ice cubes.

email your request to: juicing@jaykordich.com and they will direct you how to do it. It is one of the issues with this juicer. While it works great, there is a problem buying replacement parts.

I've had the most luck juicing carrots with this juicer. The pulp that comes out is very fine and isn't wet when you squeeze it. It is kind of shocking how many you have to put in to get a decent amount of juice though. I don't juice often just because it is so expensive for all that produce but I love garden fresh juicing when I don't feel like going through all the steps to preserve large quantities. Hope this helps :)

I have not done it, it would be very messy( it stains easily) . It tastes pretty good so you can add it to juices or smoothies

I think it is easy to clean. The most important thing is to clean the metal "blade" soon after juicing while everything is still moist. Although, when I'm in a hurry, I have left for later cleaning and I just put the blade/basket in water and soak it until I can finish the job. A brush is provided and I do use it.

This isn't going to work as a juicer because it is a blender and thus does not remove the pulp. If you wanted, I guess you could run the blended mixture through a strainer to remove pulp, but I prefer having the extra fiber in my smoothies because it's good for you!

I wouldn't recommend adding powder through the juicer. Use a jar for your juice and add the powder then twist on the lid and shake. The purpose of the juicer is to squeeze out the juice of fruits and vegetables while eliminating the fibrous material. I love my juicer, Happy juicing ���

Yes. you can. That is the sole purpose of a juicer. Cleaning this juicer is quite easy too.

This is still a blender as opposed to a juicer. You would still have to add water to help with the blending process, but overall you would likely end up with carrot juice-albeit diluted a bit by the water. I consistently use the 3HP to make smoothies that are pretty much all liquid.

Using a juicer removes all the pulp, which is fiber and what you need! Healthiest option is to eat the whole food... use the vitamix with water and drink your veggies! I had a big juicer sitting on my counter, a pain to take apart and clean, cleaning out the pulp container... save pulp to add to other things, but wait, why don't I just add all I want to my blender... so my juicer is put away waiting for my Vita Mix to replace that and my blender. Just trying to decide on which model I will get...think this is the one!

Never thought about it, but why not! Try it. You will need to rinse the base out afterwards. Make sure the juice is really solidly frozen. Great idea for summer.

It is fairly simple. The way you see it in the box and pictures, where the little cup with spout is used to for the juicing. Place the cut orange or lemon/lime on the juicer and twist the fruit back and forth till all the no more juice. Careful it can over flow. pour the juice in the cover, unless you only need a small amount.
