Does it juice wheat grass?

No. Wheat grass requires a special blade in order for it to not come out stringy.

I have tried juicing wheatgrass with this juicer, however I feel it seems to be a bit wasteful compared to a juicer specifically for wheatgrass.

I have successfully juiced spinach in this machine. It is not meant for wheat grass and you need a masticating juicer for that.

I imagine it does, it has 2 containers one for the juice and the other one for the pulp. It works very well for wheatgrass!

Yes it can. Slow rpm masticating juicers are the best for juicing wheatgrass. Many people juice wheatgrass with a hand powered crank style juicer because of the low cost compared to a powered machine, but the Kuvings is a great value for this task. It may not last as long as an Omega but it will keep you healthy!

It's not the best juicer for greens or wheat grass but it does an ok job with the greens when combine with fruits or veggies that have high water/juice content like carrots, watermelom, cucumber, etc. If you plan to juice a lot of greens I would recommend you get a slow masticating juicer.

Yes. The young grass does not do well on human digestion. However, 2 oz of the juice will make a great health benefit.

It juices greens just fine, this is where it excels. It works much better than centrifugal juicers where your greens will get caught up in the blade instead of getting juiced. So far I've tried wheatgrass, spinach, beet, celery, and carrot greens and all did great. Only a cold press juicer can do a decent job with greens.

If you want to juice primarily wheat grass (or greens in general) this juicer isn't the best choice. Look at the omega 800x series (8003-8006).

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.

I do not recommend using this juice press for grinding. It is designed for pressing juice from vegetation. Actually it is good specifically for wheat grass.

I think this is mainly a greens and wheat grass juicer. I've used it for mostly wheat grass that I've grown. It works grat for that. I've also used it to juice kale, spinach and other greens. Love it for that. I juice carrots, apples,beets,etc. In a masticating juicer.

I haven't tried juicing Wheat Grass yet, only because it seems like no shops around me don't sell it. But, I have juiced mint leaves, cliantro, parsley and Basil. I've seen on youtube, where they use the Omega to juice Wheat grass. One last thing, the Omega 8004 and Omega 8006 are exactly the same machine except for different color. So if you're on a budget the 8004 will do just fine.

I believe it is. I use it for growing wheatgrass for juicing and it. It sprouts beautifully and high yields... hope this helps.

No, because I don't like it enough to use it more. It's not good for greens like the reviews say. If you have more money to spend, spend it on a better juicer.

Vertical Auger juicers are "adequate" but not the best to juice wheatgrass. I have juiced wheatgrass in this machine and it does fine. But I"m not juicing wheatgrass only, i've combined wheatgrass with other ingredients. For this purpose it does well. If your looking to juice mostly or strictly wheatgrass I would look at the horizontal auger style juicers IE: Omega 8006 or buy a dedicated wheatgrass juicer. If you looking to juice wheatgrass as well as other fruits and veggies then this does a good job. Hope this helps
