Omega’s multiple-use juicing appliance outperforms competing juice extractors with its masticating and mincing features. This Omega 8003 machine features whisper-quiet operation and juices at a low 80 RPM so as to preserve fruits’ and vegetables’ vitamins and nutrients, normally lost by overheating. This single-gear juicer also produces less foam than a double-gear juicer. In addition to juicing, this machine acts as a grinder and homogenizer. This heavy-duty juicer also features a patented hygienic FDA-approved melamine screw, which prevents poisonous heavy metals from mixing with fresh juices.
