Unfortunately, it's sitting in my dad's garage in California right now along with some of my other stuff when I moved.<br/><br/>I think I will do a vid on juicing Zoey in a few weeks. Thanks for the idea! <br/><br/>For the Breville, harder fruit works better like apples and pears vs. mango or papaya. For a base, I think cucumbers and celery are amazing. (Try to find organic UNWAXED cucumbers so you can juice them with the skin where the silicon is.) People say that the Breville doesn't handle leafy greens too well, but I was still able to get some juice out of them. I like romaine or spinach with a little parsley or cilantro. A very simple and yummy juice to start though is apple, cucumber and romaine. Very refreshing and light! I had a Breville Juice Fountain when I lived in Arizona and loved it!

But the compact size fit my kitchen, and the price fit my budget...so we'll see. I also ordered Green for Life, and 2 books by a Cherie Calbome on juicing for health. And I ordered 3 packs of chard for the winter garden! On the Amazon site, in one of the book reviews, someone wrote, 'well, most of us will drink a shot of foul tasting wiskey or hard liquor because we want the relaxation that comes with it...what's so different about doing a shot of veggies and getting all our nutrients". I thought that was funny, but also true. So, any ideas you may have, all are welcome! Zoey I got the Breville Juice Fountain Compact-yes, it was cheap ($100) and I may be sorry.
