[@Pepper5655]

you are the reason I am gardening now. My brother gifted me a juicer. I have my greens planted and can't wait to get to juicing daily. I hope my garden grows well this year.

[@Quietcloud]

John I bought a juicer from you last week. I love it! Your videos sold me on the benefits of juicing and also saved me from making a huge mistake on choosing which juicer to buy! Thanks for all you do.

[@mikeswildoutdoors7279]

Right after juicing freeze it, I have a freeze drier and think that would be a perfect way to store , packaged correctly can store for 30 years!

[@happynessadict]

i have that food saver device , it really works i vacuum seal all my jars for food storage and salad in a jar last so much longer also extra salad dressing ....got one since many years i got the machine and the machine pulls air at least for 30 sec before it stops so i don't know how 10 pumps would stack up tho

[@delightedbylight9893]

Love you man ! You are the guru in juice and juice making

[@cheryl-friendc2024]

Just a wealth of information in your video's! Thank you! I am saving for the Green Star Elite.

[@robertoi.2072]

man you are the master yoda of juicing! I've learned so much from you. I'll definitely buy a juicer from your page for sure ;-) thanks for all the info!

[@domgifford7061]

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I’m actually in the process of opening up a fresh juice delivery business. You have taught me everything I know about juicing!! Hearing your story of why you started juicing was powerful because I felt as though this idea was “given to me”. It’s amazing to think the same force that saved your life may be the same force that gave me this idea. Thank you again for everything you do John!! I would love to get in touch with you!

[@marinapereira6175]

Hi, I am doing the same. How your business doing?

[@minabobina420]

Learned sooo much!!! Thank you! I'll use your link to get that food saver some time 😃

[@flexnetuser2268]

Thanks John! If you’re ill and really can’t juice often, one thing I did was buy a 15 vacuum sealer and some lids and I vacuum the juice AND freeze it. It lasts for about a week, maybe two, but I like it to taste like it was just made. 😉🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕🥕

[@lovelettersfromlori8579]

Another fabulous vid, John...ty so much for your invaluable info. When I get a new juicer, I'll be choosing the tribest greenstar pro & will use your link.

[@karenlucci2154]

Great info! Thanks!

[@richardgray8593]

The Green Star juices ANYTHING soft if you are willing to mix it with some carrot. The carrot is like a Green Star Roto-Rooter.

[@laurelsternberg5861]

How do you wash the vegetables before juicing? Thanks, John!

[@discountjuicers]

I just blast my produce with filtered water. I dont have any special methods. I generally purchase only organic produce to juice.

[@claribelle3920]

Hi John, I wish I would have known about the price matching earlier 😔. I have learn a lot from your videos, and you inspire me to start juicing.

[@discountjuicers]

Learn more about and Purchase the Green Star Pro GS-P502 (Best Juicer for Storing Juice) www.discountjuicers.com/greenstarpro.html I no longer recommend the manual pump shown in this video. I recommend the www.target.com/p/foodsaver-freshsaver-handheld-vacuum-sealing-system-red/-/A-14025965 I do only recommend the WIDE MOUTH mason jar sealer (not the narrow) www.foodsaver.com/accessories-and-parts/jar-and-bottle-sealers/foodsaver-wide-mouth-jar-sealer/T03-0023-01P.html

[@enriquerivas4715]

What an amazing video WOW I have been thinking for months now about how to remove the air from the mason jars. THANK YOU

[@cvg9142]

Another stellar video! Just wanted to make a quick point about lemons. Lemons are the one thing that organic they are fairly expensive. They are really expensive compared to conventional. I think a small bag of organic are 5.99 while a small bag of conventional you can get at the dollar store. BUT, I learned that lemons have two fungicides, one that enters the rind but the other one soaks into the fruit. It's a bit of a dilemma as you don't get much out of lemons but they are needed. But, 5.99 vs. 99 cents. 5.99 the way a person could go through lemons could get really expensive and not have enough to buy other organics that you can eat. I struggle with this a bit as I definitely want lemons but don't want to pay so much for something without sustenance. Yet, at the same time I don't want to drink the juice of a fruit that has fungicide. Additionally, there is that entire unknown category. If it's certified organic they label it but maybe some of the conventional lemons in the store are actually organic too without the fungicide and they just don't go with all the regulations and payment to get the certification so they can't say it on the label. This unknown group of vegetables and fruits it would be nice to have more information instead of guessing....and hoping.....well, it probably doesn't have pesticides. Maybe it does. maybe it's soaked in some chemical. Not a problem if you eat a small amount. But, if you buy the same fruit each week like a certain bag of lemons or clam of tomatoes and that has chemicals on it....toxic chemicals....it could cause chronic toxicity and actually be the poison pill and ruin everything a person is doing. It's so contradictory and ironic that a great deal of the people that juice do conventional due to lack of availability and cost. And, in this case, it's possible they are doing more damage to themselves....if they are consistently eating a high pesticide herbicide fungicide product like say conventional apples or spinach.

[@gladtidings4all]

Bought the hand pump. I already have the Foodsaver vacuum sealer and jar lids adapter but it doesn’t vacuum my juices. Hope the hand pump works for me.

[@Travelers4LifeEZ]

Thank You Sir, Good Job 👍👍👍

[@Toroloco777]

I love myself therefore I juice.

[@dixi1951]

What is green star compare to omegaSj843

[@guadalupegomez577]

The vacuum pump that you recommend in this episode is no longer available on Amazon, can you recommend another one please? Thank you for all the information.

[@discountjuicers]

Its also available on ebay www.ebay.com/itm/Portable-Manual-Hand-for-Pump-Space-Saver-Storage-Vacuum-Seal-Organizer-Bags/252642718286?epid=9002639441&hash=item3ad2adf24e:g:JDgAAOSwRUhY~0k4

[@guadalupegomez577]

Thanks!

[@zappymezappy5022]

Wow this helped me so much. He's funny. I'm going to start my garden. I have to be at work very early, and I do not have the time to juice in the morning. Great information, so helpful.

[@flexnetuser2268]

Hey John, your videos are so very inspirational. Do you ever get your AIC checked ( tells how your average blood sugar has been for the last 3 months, costs $ 30) I also have a blood sugar meter, GE brand, cost 10.00. It’s helped me as I have insulin resistance. Just two bananas spike my blood sugar to 170. I’ve been ill so can’t exercise much but if I walk/ jog extremely fast for at least 6 minutes, slowing down for a bit if it’s too much, my blood sugar can drop 60 points. I know this sounds incredible, but it happens all the time. Burst exercise is being studied for diabetes. If I didn’t know this I would be in trouble, as fruit is almost the only thing I can digest ( and a little nut milk, some other stuff) and if I don’t do this burst exercise I’m STILL HUNGRY NO MATTER HOW MUCH FRUIT I EAT. THe sugar does not enter the cells unless I do burst cardio after each little fruit meal. I recommend to anyone who’s at risk to get a blood sugar meter. Peace and health to us all. 😘 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@discountjuicers]

I generally get blood tests every year and check a1C as well as other factors. I encourage people to get blood testing. I own a blood sugar meter as well. :) More info on blood testing at kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4ObdYB4otygn9k

[@flexnetuser2268]

DiscountJuicers.com Wow John, is that really you? I never expected to get a response from the real John Kohler. I’m so happy you do this and encourage others to do so too. Knowledge is power and I think it’s always good to do a reality check now and then no matter how healthy one is. Thank you so much for your uplifting work. I thought you might think it was weird that I asked but I really wanted to know! I feel good to know that you’re so on top of things. If you ever run across someone like me who just can’t eat fruit because of their blood sugar please tell them how burst exercise can lower their blood sugar rapidly, far more rapidly than slow walking could. I know you’re really into working out, I saw your contest with Jake Mace, that was great 👍 😍 Thanks for the great blood testing video.

[@benblanco3065]

He has good vids but so god damn long

[@CandyRayne]

Do you also carry the manual healthy juicer parts?

[@discountjuicers]

We do not offer parts for juicers. Please contact the manufacturer.

[@CandyRayne]

DiscountJuicers.com thank you!

[@AshleyMadisonsRight]

Would you happen to have a recipe book?

Purchased my tribest from ya!

[@vivekdesai8500]

How much nutrition would a 5 day old juice lose in terms of percentage compared to fresh juice? would it have 60% of nutrition on the 5th day? Thank you

[@discountjuicers]

I have not seen data on this. Best is to drink the juice RIGHT after you make it. I would rather drink 5 day old juice than eat a bowl of white rice, or eat other packaged foods or fast foods myself.

[@livingwithleany5490]

Can I cut my vegetables, vacuum seal the cut vegetables, then juice them daily? Or will the cutting the fruits and vegetables lose the nutrients?

[@discountjuicers]

its best not to cut ANY produce until right before you juice it. In most cases, produce will start to oxidize the more exposed surfaces.

[@DonaDavis]

Thank you for this video. I store my juice in mason jars with the vacuum lids as you've shown. I do store them for a few days and it continues to tastes good but I'd like to store it longer. Amazon is out of the pump you recommend. They don't seem to know when or if they will be replenished. Please let me know when Amazon has the pump again. Thanks!

[@discountjuicers]

Here is the same pump on ebay www.ebay.com/itm/Portable-Manual-Hand-for-Pump-Space-Saver-Storage-Vacuum-Seal-Organizer-Bags/252642718286?epid=9002639441&hash=item3ad2adf24e:g:JDgAAOSwRUhY~0k4

[@DonaDavis]

Thank you!

[@simwins7009]

Hi Dona, Did you order your pump from eBay and did it fit the food saver jar sealer?

[@CharlysGardenSchoolg]

Cheapest canning jars at Good Will, etc.! Have to buy lids, though.

[@fotosynthetic]

You mention ferment in the end of the video. Maybe oxidize would be the more proper term in this instance. Fermentation can still and usually occurs in an anaerobic situation. Love the video though and thanks for always posting good content.

[@leetomlee7265]

So which to buy, a Omega or this GreenStar?

[@discountjuicers]

depends on your goals. if you want to maximize storage and nutrition, the green star. If you want to save time juicing go with the vsj843 see kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYKcY6Fjqd9oa8k

[@captainadams7569]

can you use raw apple cider vinegar to preserve juice. I know it will change the taste,

[@richardgray8593]

As long as the jar is filled to the very top, there is no need to vacuum seal the jar at all. The juice has displaced all the air. But, if the jar is not completely full of juice, THEN the vacuum pump is a great idea.

[@discountjuicers]

When I have tried to fill my jars to the brim (overflowing) I never seem to get all the air out. When I have done this with highly volatile sugar cane juice, it will always ferment due to the small amount of air left. Furthermore, when I go to unscrew the lid, the juice spills/drips everywhere. When I have preserved sugar cane juice with lemon under vacuum, as shown in this episode, it has saved easily 2 weeks (Although I recommend saving only up to 1 week)

[@Kiwi2523]

Is there another lid to use, my lid have rusted over time... even after washing after every use

[@discountjuicers]

You can purchase replacement lids if they go bad.

[@mjcubo2246]

Hi John, could you please elaborate on why you said you rather drink a 7 day old juice than a raw food kombucha. I thought a kombucha would be equally as healthy. What am I overlooking in this comparison?

[@discountjuicers]

A Vegetable juice will be more beneficial to my health than a kombucha (which is mostly water with tea brewed into it). Juice is 100% water from plants and significantly more nutrients, including minerals, antioxidants and vitamins.

[@sasishushma]

Hi John, I am in India. I want to buy the hurom h-aa series juicer. Is it good to buy that juicer. What is it opinion?is there any other juicer available India like hurom?

[@discountjuicers]

please contact your local dealer, we do not service India, and hurom does not want me to sell their machines in the USA

[@karinleung8576]

Hi John, in an older video you also recommended using another plastic vacuum sealing system made by Mangocore - this came with a plastic air pump and plastic covers for wide mouth jars. I've been using that system - do you still recommend that system, or prefer the FoodSaver system in this video?

[@discountjuicers]

I still have that system, but found that the seals would end up leaking most of the time. This method is much more fool proof and works better. I no longer recommend that setup due to the leaks.

[@karinleung8576]

DiscountJuicers.com great to know. Thank you!

[@erinreginald449]

What if i want to carry it with me around for a few hours

[@discountjuicers]

First vacuum seal it, second get it as cold as possible, then put it in a cooler with some ice packs to keep it cold.

[@timeabakos]

Extremely informative as always. I also checked the older storage video about the bottles etc and while I have no problem with making juice at home and drinking it fresh, how about the taking some to work aspect? (We just got a Greenstar Elite so theoretically the juice will be of top quality.) I mean, is it still worth to make some extra and take to work, while it's not gonna be vacuum-sealed and probably just in an ordinary glass or stainless steel bottle (there is a fridge at work so at least it will be refrigerated), compared to drinking/eating other stuff?

[@discountjuicers]

Fresh juices even if stored not in the best way (but kept cold as possible) is most always better than other things you would consume at work in my opinion.

[@PatriceRBrown-kb8ez]

Hello John. I just started following you. This is the first video I've seen by you and you're using a different juicer. Did you give up on the Omega?

[@PatriceRBrown-kb8ez]

Disregard. I get it. It's for those who want to store their juices after juicing. lol

[@marninelko]

Hi John I thought I saw you using the Tribest vaccuum pump with the foodsaver jar sealer but now I can't find which video that was. Is this possible? I purchased those items based on your recommendations but now I think I may have had it wrong and you need the plastic hand pump? PS Thanks for your awesome videos!

[@discountjuicers]

Yes, that is also possible, if you have the tribest vacuum pump. It costs like $150 if you buy it separately, so I do not recommend it, unless you have one that you got with a tribest vacuum blender.

[@marninelko]

i have one - i bought bc of your recommendation and love it!. do you remember which video it was that showed you using it like that? thanks so much !!🙏🌠

I've purchased a juicing machine from you the past (2-3 years ago). Can you tell me if horseradish can be juiced and what juicing machine is best for doing so.......HELP!

[@discountjuicers]

I would use the green star pro or elite for juicing horseradish root, which can be hard.

[@mac5333]

DiscountJuicers.com Star Pro and the Elite are they sold by you? Are both made by the same company?

[@autumngrace3135]

Make as you will drink, if its a bit too much to drink in one setting, I put in a jar and drink later same day.

[@dmw2037]

Amazon is sold out of the vacuum pumps . Is there another place to buy one? Thanks for the great info too! Also can you send me the link for the sauerkraut maker?

[@discountjuicers]

Here is the same vacuum pump on ebay www.ebay.com/itm/Portable-Manual-Hand-for-Pump-Space-Saver-Storage-Vacuum-Seal-Organizer-Bags/252642718286?epid=9002639441&hash=item3ad2adf24e:g:JDgAAOSwRUhY~0k4 Im currently testing kraut vaccum lids and will recommend once I know which is best.

[@lovekarro]

John, how many days you think you can keep vaacuum sealed juices made in an Omega Juicer? Thanks

[@discountjuicers]

Depends on the Omega Juicer. If its a slow omega juicer, and vacuum sealed, up to 5 days. That being said, I always recommend drinking it fresh, as its best.

[@ngoclongvu3944]

I don't get it. How can air be sucked out of the seal? Through where?

[@richardgray8593]

As long as the vacuum pump can make the pressure negative relative to the inside of the jar, air will flow out of the jar, escaping around the seal. When the pump stops, the normal outside pressure is higher than the pressure in the jar, and the lid snaps down and seals tight.

[@thenewyorkredneck4735]

Rock on John. If you're ever in New York there are a few really cool small urban farms near me and I'm turning my property into a good forest too....undercover front yard edibles to bypass the zoning codes 😎

[@trinidadwhyatt6189]

Can it juice coconut?

[@discountjuicers]

yes, see kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZ-7pZKnd69lnbM

[@somerandom960]

Hay John why not try using food grade CO2 fill up your glass jug to a 1/4 with carbon dioxide as the juice drips out of your juicer as it fills because CO2 is heavier the the oxygen bubbles in the juice from the juiceing process the bubbles of oxygen will be pulled from the juice and rise to the top of the glass jug above the CO2 therefore stopping the oxidation of your juice.

[@chrizzzlibear7107]

I'd love to see a juice-off between the Greenstar Pro and and Angel Juicer from someone like you with such a big experience😁👍. Nice advice by the way to help getting more people into juicing😊

[@discountjuicers]

At this point, I do not sell, nor do I recommend the Angel Juicer due to their company policies. I am unable to say more due to legal reasons. If we can get our differences resolved, I would be glad to test, compare and promote them.

[@Honeypepper.]

Ok raw!😊

[@mikecushman7116]

He Said he knows it all, I've always want to meet a know it all ha ha ha

What is this juicer you're using??? Have you ever spoken about it?

[@Honeypepper.]

[@buckrogers5703]

Why a transparent container ? light will oxyde the stuff as sure as the air !

[@discountjuicers]

A dark container is better. They make purple colored mason jars. they are expensive. In the fridge, its dark anyway.
