Upright Masticating Juicers

Also known as "slow juicers", these juicers utilize a revolutionary new patented design with all of the high yield, low-speed qualities of a standard Single Gear Masticating Juicer but in a space-saving, upright design. With these juicers, the juice is first extracted through a crushing stage and, before the pulp is ejected, it is then squeezed during a second pressing stage; resulting in more juice, and extremely dry pulp. The low RPMs of these juicers ensure high yield and low waste. Upright Masticating juicers are very capable at juicing virtually any fruit and vegetable, as well as extracting juice from leaves and grasses, like wheatgrass, spinach, lettuce, parsley, and other leafy greens and herbs.** Although these juicers can juice wheatgrass, they perform best when juiced with other veggies to maximize performance. This style of juicer does not do the best job on juicing straight greens i.e. wheatgrass shots. If you're looking for a juicer for the best performance for straight wheatgrass, the Omega 8000 series or Twin gear juicers would be a better choice for this.
