I really like to strain my juice, just my preference...you do you! But if you like smooth juice, this is a great strainer because the lip goes over the edge of the measuring cup for mess free pouring and straining.

These 8oz glass bottles are the perfect size for fresh made juice. I like to fill them as full as possible to keep the air out. The caps are great to prevent any spills.

A stiff brush is essential for cleaning the juicer. I thoroughly clean the strainer immediately after each batch of juice. If you keep it clean, you will get much higher yields.

Don't leave out mint, cilantro, basil, and parsley when you juice. These add a completely different flavor to your recipes! Try some mint with watermelon juice!
