What do you do with the pulp?

I keep a compost heap so most of the time I just dump it in there. If I think ahead, I juice the vegetables first and dump that pulp into whatever soup or sauce I make next. The pulp keeps a day or two in the fridge if you wrap it up and it makes veggie soup or tomato sauce thicker.

I use in all the previous ideas mentioned, especially in thickening our raw soups. We don't cook anything anymore, but I sweeten my salad dressings (the thick creamy ones) with it if I am just juicing fruits. And the thick foam from juicing goes into my boxers dish...he loves it and know when I'm juicing and sits patiently and waits his turn. He has a gorgeous, healthy coat.

Assuming you don't allow the pulp from different produce to mix, you can scoop it out and use it in broths or baking recipes. Carrot pulp especially rehydrates well in soup or in carrot cakes. Berry pulp is decent over ice cream or on toast if you have enough of it, likewise with apple if you don't mind eating skin pieces. Otherwise, compost or discard it.

We (family of four) use the pulp in one of our all-time favorite meals, which we call "whatever burgers" (they are essentially veggie burgers)... we're big lentil eaters, so we take the pulp, any leftover lentils from a day or two before (or if we are really craving whatever burgers, we'll make lentils especially- most kinds work well, and canned is also fine), a few handfuls of rolled oats to bind everything, a chopped yellow onion or two for flavor, sometimes some grated ginger, a sprinkling of salt, some chopped cilantro/coriander, a chopped green chile pepper, and some dry spices (usually Indian spices- garam masala, amchur)... mix it all together, add oats until it all comes together, and saute / very lightly pan-fry in olive oil (I usually just put enough olive oil down to coat the pan, and then again before flipping). These little burgers are so healthy, addictive, and have been a hit with everyone we've served them to! Plus- great way to get the fiber we miss by juicing. (We use a mix of veggie/fruit pulp- our standard juice is kale/greens+a small apple+half a lemon+a small chunk of ginger... sometimes carrots or celery make their way in there. No one minds finding the occasional apple peel in their whatever burgers- it's all part of the whatever!)

I make spaghetti salsa, add some tomatoes, some onions, peppers, garlic....you can make an amazing Napolitana salsa for everything. Pasta, lasagna, meatballs, a lot of options...cupcakes, bread (full of good fiber).

I juice all the veggies first and then save the pulp and make turkey/veggie burgers with it. Just freeze the veggie pulp until you have enough and then buy some ground turkey and make patties and throw them back in your freezer for the future! They are so fresh tasting! I compost the fruit pulp.

Ours did the same thing. You're not doing anything wrong. You can eliminate some or most of the pulp if you put carrots or cucumbers through after you put pulp heavy items through such as pineapple or celery.

It's easy to clean just as long as you use the enclosed brush to remove the pulp from the strainer. Otherwise the pulp can be difficult to remove especially if it starts drying. They also recommend putting a plastic grocery bag in the pulp collector so you can just lift out the bag and toss out the residue pulp.

Like most juicers, it does leave wet pulp behind in the canister/basket. However, this is one of the most powerful and best juicers I have used. The pulp is only a waste if you don't use it (ie. bake with it or throw it in a blender to make a smoothie)

The blades are dull! The best way to handle this problem is 1. get the blades sharpened at a knife shop, 2. squeeze the pulp through a sleeve for jam/jelly making or cheese cloth, then dump. You can reuse the cheese cloth or sleeve (which is washing machine safe).

Most gets spun into a small basket while some gets caught in the plastic container surrounding it. If you compost, the pulp would be a great addition. All components are easily cleaned. But be sure to clean up sooner rather than later. I've never, and would not recommend that you let the remains get dried and encrusted before cleaning.Hope this helps.

Well there are leftovers such as the peel or the skin or what have you. It's extracting the most important things out of. There is pulp that is left over as well but you choose to do what you want with it. I don't use it. Hope this helps.

Always juice your firmest fruit or vegetable last. This will clean out the auger and push out any softer items left in. Also, use the freshest items available. Those make the most juice with the driest pulp. That is really all I can think of. Wish I could be of more help.

Alton Brown from the cooking show 'Good Eats' simply puts a piece of plastic wrap down on top of the grater and then grates the ginger or garlic, letting the plastic catch all of the pulp. I've tried it and it works like a charm. If you want only the juice and none of the pulp perhaps a nail or tooth brush can be used for cleanup.

gotta remove the black plastic thing underneath it also. remove the pulp collecter, then pull up on the black part that tucks over the pulp collector

yes, it ejects the pulp in to the black waste bin, and it is amazing! I put plastic bags in as well for super fast clean up!

I would not -- juice pulp would clog. Cannot use champagne because bubbles/air/carbonation interrupt the flow. Only water would be my suggestion.

I All ways have to juice the pulp over again no matter what veggie to get enough. The collard green leaf stems get jammed around the augar which stops it completely. So remove the stems

Yes, the pulp is expelled during the juicing process. However, a small amount of foam may appear on the surface of the juice. I just stir this in. I then save the pulp and stir it into corn muffins so no nutrients or fiber is lost!

yes. No pulp with apples BUT... Mine broke within 3 uses (making apple juice)!! I would go with a different brand and just pay a little more.

I am not a 100 % sure but I don't think so. You would have the seeds and pulp in your juice.

Its a pretty fat straw so most likely a fair amount of pulp is fine. You'd have to try.
