A Smaller And Cheaper Hand Juicer – The Best Choice For Wheat Grass
Hand juicers can be very useful when it comes to juicing wheat grass. So what is the big deal about wheat grass juice anyway? This is a juice which is derived from crushing small wheat plants, which are generally 3-4 weeks of age. The juice made from them is very strong and dark in color. Since it is made from these tender shoots the good thing about this is that the juice retains all the properties of the wheat grain just before it is harvested. Besides this the chlorophyll and living enzymes that are produced by the young plant add up to its goodness.
Now you may think why not opt for an electric juice instead of a hand juicer? The answer is that cheaper electric juicers are not suitable for making this juice. A special kind of juicing mechanism is required, that you will only find on more expensive electric juicers. Since wheat grass juice is taken in small quantities (something around 30ml) it can very well be juiced from your hand juicer only. It doesn't take long at all - about 2 minutes to make one shot.
Furthermore, when you opt for a hand juicer over an electric juicer you save up on a lot of space. Hand juicers are of compact size and are are much easier to store. In addition, you don’t have to spend much time and effort on its cleaning. However, If you go for the electric ones then not only will you have to think of cords and power points but also of storing those big machines. Besides it’s always time consuming to clean up those big machines every time you use them.
One of the biggest advantages of the hand juicer is that it will fit well in your budget. Unlike your electric juicer, a hand juicer doesn’t have to be built around gearing mechanisms and electric motors. This means a simple and a cost friendly machine in hand.
So if you are seriously considering including anti oxidant rich wheat grass in your diet it is advisable to stick to a hand juicer. Not only its easy on the operator but also easy to store and clean.
