Lies And Damn Lies About Mixer
The Omega J8004 and J8006 are twin masticating juicers that are the improved
Model of the excellent old twins of Omega J8003/J8005.
Fondly called the J8000 series and are Omega's best sellers for their quality
and durability.
The same functions and features. The only difference is simply the color. Omega
J8004 has a white body whereas the Omega J8006 is adorned in chrome and black
with a price difference of only $40 for the more "sophisticated" look.
The Omega J8004/J8006 Juice Extractor, are dual-stage masticating juicers,
Designed and engineered with two main things in mind: for healthier and more
nutritious juices. Omega actually named their juicers the "Nutrition Center" as

patented stone mill-like auger/screw, made of GE's ULTEM material (# 3 in picture
above) that is supposedly 8 times more solid than the other single-gear juicers.
This means that there is less chances of the gear chipping when being
mishandled. The other Omega juicer that uses this solid US FDA-approved nontoxic
melamine, is the Omega VERT VRT330/350HD.
Like most gear juicers in this category, this model is suitable for juicing fruits,
vegetables (does this very well), wheatgrass, grinding, mincing, food milling,
making soy milk, frozen desserts, and even nut butter. All these functions make
The juice extractor a versatile machine that is well worth investing in for a modern
kitchen.
As with most gear juicers in this league, the auger spins at between 75 and 85
RPM to preserve the enzymes and nutrients from being destroyed (as opposed to
3,000 RPM and above in centrifugal juicers).
The operation is slow, steady and very quiet--a slow hum. The assembling,

With the feeding chute opening of 11/2-inch diameter, like the older model, your

Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer.
MY OPINION
Being very well acquainted with the older equivalent model and Omega's
reputation, I'm all for their quality-built masticating juicers.
Not only do they preserve the precious enzymes and nutrients in juices, the juice
Yield is a lot higher compared to that extracted using a centrifugal juicer. The
Result is juice that is less foamy and that can last longer before it oxidizes. Once
you've drunk juice extracted from a gear juicer, you would never again go back to
a centrifugal juicer. It is a huge and pleasant difference.
The purchase price of this juicer is just about $30 more than the older models. The
functions are the same, number of parts the same, only that the outward built
Design is somewhat different and has a "newer and fresh" look. If you're serious
about juicing and like to be ahead with juicing, this machine will be worth every
Penny in the long term. If you have a budget constraint, then I would say the basic
Old model Omega J8003 serves the purpose equally well.
