Juicing

• Juice the wheatgrass immediately after cutting it. Pour the juice into serving shot glasses using a tea strainer to remove the froth if necessary.
• I used to mix the wheatgrass. I tried all different ways to disguise it. Whatever I made still tasted of wheatgrass. These days I prefer to drink it on its own.
• I'll be honest here, I never actually like the taste of wheatgrass. I'm not sure if anybody does even if they say they do. However, what I do know is that if I am away for a while, it's the first thing I miss, and it's the first thing I have when I get back.

Cleaning the Greenstar

• I dismantle the Greenstar into the large kitchen bowl. That way I keep all the parts together. The first thing I clean is the two gears and then I return them to the safe place at the back of the worktop.
• Thoroughly wash all the parts with clean cold water. Use a kitchen brush or the tool supplied to do this. Use a toothbrush to clean the screen.
• Clean around the housing of the Greenstar with a piece of kitchen paper. Once a week I thoroughly clean the gear area with clean water and a small kitchen brush.
