omega vrt350 which strainer should i use to juice carrots To the person with the stuck bowl, I had that problem, too.  It was so hard to twist the bowl off the base unit.  It was one of the frustrating, daily issues with the Omega VRT350HD. To the person with "problems", just scroll back in time on this blog and see all the posts detailing my Omega VRT350HD problems.  This started back in September of 2011. See September posts and 1/14/12, etc. To the person with "too pulpy Omega 350", I have photos of the pulp I strained out of the juice, photos of the pulp and strings clinging to the jar, photos of the strings I pulled out of the juice and measured ... you get the idea.  For a while I posted the Omega Vrt350HD String of the Day! Was my Omega VRT350HD juice too pulpy?  You bet!  I had to brush and floss after drinking that juice.  Not pleasant juice in my opinion.  See 11/1/11 post, etc. To the "Omega VRT350HD parts" person, I tried replacement parts.  The problems persisted.  Good luck amigo.  See post 10/29/11, et al. To the "Omega VRT350HD banana" person, don't bother juicing bananas.  Just make smoothies.  See my smoothie recipe posts.  Just scroll down to the end of this blog and see the Southwest Desert slide show and click "bananas" or "smoothie" on the list of Labels.  It will take you to the posts.

To the "Omega VRT350HD which strainer should i use to juice carrots" person, see my strainer post, 2/2/2012.  Don't strain yourself.  It has a photo of the "more pulp" strainer.  Want more pulp?  Just scoop it out of the pulp ejection port and stir it into your juice.  Seems to me we want less pulp.  So, I finally returned my Omega VRT350HD, and it wasn't easy, and bought a Jack LaLanne's Power Juicer for under $100.  See 6/8/12 post.  The juice is pulp-free, the replacement parts, should I need any, cost under $10 each (including shipping!), and none of the parts stick to each other.  Bonus:  The Jack LaLanne juicer, screen, and other parts are so much easier to clean than the pricey OmegaVRT350HD. That's my opinion, Southwest Desert Blogger C. (c) 2012

Orange Blossom Haiku and Dental Implant Juice

Fragrant orange blossoms

Haiku

The heady fragrance
of many orange blossoms
clouds the orange tree.

 Blog Post:
The heady fragrance of orange blossoms clouds the old orange tree.  The bees create an audible hum as they pollinate.  People are getting cranky about their allergies -- springtime in the Southwest Desert.

I had some dental work done.  To keep the site clean, especially for the first 3 days following the dental implant, the instructions are "DO NOT have anything with little bits ... for the first 3 days...We do not want anything little to enter the surgery site."  Glad I no longer have the Omega VRT350 HD juicer because the pulp amounted to vegetable bits, especially carrot, and drinking that juice could have compromised the healing of the site.  Yes, I could strain the juice, but why go through the extra steps of straining, cleaning the strainer, a second container, and perhaps spilling some juice in the process?  I just used my old juicer and have a perfectly clean, pulp-free juice with no extra steps. 
Happily enjoying the smooth, pulp-free, string-free juice from my little16 year old juicer,
