Jack la Lanne juicers are great until you have a problem with it – then they dont want to know even altho I had a lifetime warranty on the motor!!!!
Seems like there is some confusion here. Yes, it’s best to drink the whole juice including the fiber and in that case you would add water to make it thinner or just eat with a spoon. However this video is to demonstrate how to make juice like you would with a juicer, extracting the juice from the fiber, such as when wanting to juice fast or juice feast. Hope that helps make it clearer. Thanks for your great comments and questions!
I use polyester paint straining bags, cheaper than nutmilk bags. Taking most of the fiber out of your vegetable juice (I eat plenty of fiber otherwise), especially if youre blending kale, etc will help your tummy accept such large amounts of veggie matter.
this demo is for making juice extracted from the pulp, therefore you don’t want to add water as that will dilute the juice. When you’re making whole juice with the fiber, then you want to add water. Hope that helps!
great video. informative & humerous lol thanks!
