I regularly blend cilantro to make a vinaigrette in mine, the leaves become tiny flakes when blended with v/o.

Hi, I use my Incredible Greens over a month's time and keep it in a regular cupboard. For a tested answer to your questions I think it wouldbe best to contact the manufacturer.

Kale is considerably better than other greens such as spinach. Mainly because of the rigid stalk. Parsley, cilantro, romaine, spinach, all did not fare so well. Too much wasted juice in the pulp for my liking.

I haven't tried wheat grass but it works well for kale and spinach. Sorry I can't help...

Yes, I have used it for spinach and other greens, but they have been fresh and crisp. Don't think it would work with greens that were even a little limp.

I use leafy greens in mine all the time, but for best results I mix them with hard vegetables and alternate between the two going into the juicer. There is lots of info on the nutritional content of all sorts of vegetable juices if you google 'juicingbook'

Oh yes! The trick is to pile your kale together with a juicy fruit like apples or pears. Pack a handful of the kale into the chute first, then cut and quarter your apples and put two or 3 of those on top of the kale (depending on the size of the apple) then push through. You'll then have nice dark green juice in your cup! I do this with all my greens. Nice tip: Save some of the kale pulp and mix with very ripe avocados. Makes an excellent guacamole!Hope this helps!Ta!

I have not tried wheatgrass but my opinion is that it will not work as well at all. The wheatgrass is too fine to get efficient juice out of the machine. Unless you load a lot of it in there. You need to buy one with a smaller nozel that will handle the fine leafy consistency of wheatgrass. I juice lager greens like Kale, dandelion greens, and beat greens and it works well. Also works well for celeary and other juice veggies. Carrots I would prefer a jack la lane juice type of machine it's much better, this goes for fruit as well. This machine is not great with fruit it does not extract all the juice you would expect. a lot goes to waste.

I think it works quite well for greens, considering that it isn't an auger juicer. You can't juice wheatgrass, but if I cram in greens, so the whole chute is filled tight, greens work pretty well. For kale, use the frilly type, and put it in "head first" with the stems sticking up top to push down on.

First let me say I have no experience with collard greens. But my experience with the veggichop leads me to believe that it could chop most any vegetable you put in it. If it will chop nuts it most certainly will chop leafy veggies.

I usually put leafy pieces through with another fruit or veggie. I add the spinach or kale with a carrot, apple or other firmer fruit or veggie. Maybe this will help...

Leafy greens are juiced, but the quantity of juice is small. I like to bunch the kale so that the bunch meets the shredding blade. Otherwise, the kale parts break away without getting juiced.

I haven't used kale but I've made several Green Monster smoothies with fresh spinach and apple chunks and the results are awesome.

Excellent! I take my Kale and spinach and role them up into a wad, if i have cilantro and role it up inside with the spinach and kale, and feed them on through, does great! I like and lot of greens in with my carrots. We feed the pulp to the rabbits in the desert.
