SETTING UP YOUR GREENSTAR PRO
C. Using the Screens
A few screens are provided to increase the versatility of your Greenstar Pro.
1. Fine Screen: The fine screen is used to make vegetable and fruit juices
with as little pulp as possible in the juice. This screen is suitable for most types
of vegetable and fruit juices, including carrots and other root vegetables; crisp
apples and other crisp fruits; spinach, kale and other leafy greens; wheatgrass
and other grasses; celery and other fibrous stalks, and much more. Note that
the pressure built up inside of the screen may still push some finely ground
pulp through the holes of the screen.
2. Coarse Screen: The coarse screen is used to make vegetable and fruit
juices with some pulp mixed into the juice. This screen is suitable for juices
where a little pulp is desired inside the juice.
3. Homogenizing Screen (Open Screen): The homogenizing screen is used
for basic food processing. When using the Homogenizing Screen, Greenstar Pro
processes your ingredients and releases them through the juice outlet under-
neath. Use the Homogenizing Screen when grinding nuts and seeds to make
pâtés, baby foods, etc. When using the Homogenizing Screen, slide it over the
Twin Gears so that the rectangular hole faces downward.
4. Breadstick Screen (Closed Screen): The Breadstick Screen is used for
food processing where an extra smooth consistency is required. When using
the Breadstick Screen, the Greenstar Pro processes your ingredients and
pushes them through the pulp outlet, adding increased processing time. Use
the Breadstick Screen with the Breadstick Knob (see next page) to make
breadsticks, mochi, sorbets, nut butters, and other recipes where a smoother
consistency is desired.
D. Using the Knobs
1. Juicing Knob:
a. With the Fine Screen or the Coarse Screen: Use the juicing knob when
juicing vegetables and fruits. The juicing knob adjusts how much the pulp is
squeezed before it is pushed out through the pulp outlet. Tightening the knob
increases the amount of pressure that is applied to the vegetables and fruits
while extracting juice. Tightening the knob will get more juice from firmer veg-
etables like carrots, crisp apples, celery, etc. However, a tightened knob may
also prevent the juicer from successfully ejecting the pulp of softer produce,
wheatgrass, or leafy greens.
• TIGHTEN THE KNOB: to extract maximum juice from firmer
vegetables and fruits.
• LOOSEN THE KNOB: to extract juice from softer vegetables and
fruits. Also loosen knob for wheatgrass and leafy vegetables for
easier pulp ejection.
