Guest guest Posted June 1, 2003 Report Posted June 1, 2003 Hello, My name is Carole, and I've just joined this group. I've been wanting a juicer to help in healing a variety of problems for some time, and had the good fortune of finding a VitaMix 3600 at a yard sale for $3.00. It is intact. My problem is that it didn't come with an instructional book, and I don't know how to use it. I know that you must add water to the vegies, and that's all I know. I would like to grind rice in it as well, but apparently you must use reverse, then forward, or some such thing, in a certain sequence. Anyway, customer service reps tell me they'll send me an instructional book for $12.00. Well, not that I'm cheap, but money is very tight from medical bills for a chronic illness, so I'm wondering if anyone here has this machine and could tell me how to use it. I'm hoping that I will see, in reading the messages, various recipies for juices as well. Thank you, Carole Quote

Guest guest Posted June 7, 2003 Report Posted June 7, 2003 HI! What does one look for when purchasing a juicer? I have read advertisements proclaiming that their juicer is superior for instance because it separates the fiberous portion as in celery strings. My diet has been weak in vegetables and I want to correct this. Also, can anyone recommend a book, web site or other manner of gathering information about fruit and vegetable nutritional values. Thanks, Barbara LF <lorenzo1 wrote: Hi Carol, I use a vitamix! Carol get a juiced book at your library or at a yard sale. I never read the vitamix book.
