Fresh Juice Combinations

[hellojello]

Anyone got any for my awesomely cool and powerful fresh juicer that i got for 10 bucks from a garage sale (saw it in a catelogue a month later for $295 haha suckers)
Anyways Ive been making orange/apple/lemon juice (which is very good) orange/apple/lemon/celery/carrot (also good) tried pear/apple (not so good more like puree) tried a straight up vegetable (tomato/carrot/celery) also not so good.
I think I'm getting the amounts I need to put in wrong. Anyone got any tips on how to make a mean vegie juice? Or any other good combinations?
Cheers.

pear/apple/lemon has always been my favorite

add some hot sauce or cayenne to your tomato/veggie juices to make them yummier.

the possibilities are really endless...beets make rad *very staining* juice too (y)

what model is it? i love juicers. i can't afford one, but want one so badly and know a lot of the brands pretty well. goddamn, did you get a good deal!

mango/peach/strawberry.

i like it in a carton so i imagine fresh shit would be like...the shit and stuff. YEAH!

If my pear juice is coming out like purree do you think its cause the pears are too ripe or am I using the wrong type (the green ones, although I think I tried the brown ones at one point too)? Cause generally I like pear juice but when I do it in the juicer its just not as good.

this is my juicer (http://www0.epinions.com/content_184666525316) This baby will juice whole lemons peeled although i've found if i dont peel them i get a slight bitter taste from the pith and the skin.
I'll give the beetroots a go ...this is going to seem an uh duh but u do them raw right... its just ive never eaten raw betroot only pickled (y) on hamburgers(y) (y) (im sure its just as good as on a soy burger you gotta try it if you haven't already)

oh yes I"m going to try peach/strawberry/mango - awesome idea and summer is here. I can get that stuff cheap as except for banannas (oh how I miss banannas) I know there's no banannas in that combination I'm just lamenting.

Anyways if anyones still reading this I'm still hoping to get more recipes and especially like quantities for something like a vegie juice cause I think I have the proportions wrong which why is doesn't taste all that good....

personally i think most combinations are shit

i never go anything more wacky than orange and grapefruit.


can you put passionfruit in it?
orange and passionfruit is nice

i too, miss bananas :(
sometimes my mum gives me one when i visit
its like a special treat
i used to find bananas so common and crappy

Good idea on the grapefruit I love it and hadn't thought of trying it.
I haven't tried juicing passionfruit yet. Id imagine you'd have to get a fair few even to get a slight flavour. If I see them cheap I"ll give them a go though. Thanks.

And yeah, banannas I forgot what they taste like and I used to eat one everyday. I miss my banannas. I saw them on special for 9.99. I was tempted to buy one but I"m like fuck that I used to pay 99c a kg, 1.99 max.

oooh. i'm not familiar with that one. still, great deal.

and yeah. do 'em raw. DO IT ALL RAW, BABY :cool:

I think Brevilles made by Aussies. That'd probably explain it. Yeah I'll pick up some beets next time I'm at the fruit n veg market. Thanks for the tip. I'll let you know how it goes.

honey dew melon, oranges, canteloupe, and a little pineapple.

Same as Cosmo, I want a juicer but they are so expensive. I have heard wonderful things about people who juice. Is there anything you cant throw in a juicer?


My aunt juiced through out her whole pregnancy and loved the way she felt the whole time...

[hellojello]

well maybe a potato? but i'm sure you could if you wanted to.
whatever floats your boat.

Ice Cream/Instant Coffee/Chocolate Syrup

Strangely enough, you can juice a potato...but the juice tastes terrible.
From personal experience the only thing that really doesn't juice well is banana. Best to whizz it in a blender and then mix with juice, or just make a smoothie instead.

And my blender is a Breville, I thought they were British:confused:

[hellojello]

you're probably right
im australiacentric
if its not american it must be australian right.

i wish i could afford a bananna
that isn't the artifical lolly type.
