I'm using my Omega 8005 Juicer for the first time. When I put wheatgrass into the hopper, using the reccommended parts, wet pulp is coming out but not a drop of juice. I don't see mechanically how wheatgrass can be juiced by this machine, as the auger seems to sweep it right past the screen. I purchased this product specifically to juice wheatgrass, so any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Julie

Hi, I have an Omega juicer, and I've never had this happen. I recommend that you double check to see if you have the right parts attached. It comes with two inserts, one with a small metal screen on the bottom, the other has no screen, it is solid. The solid one is for crushing and proccessing food. The one with the screen is used for juicing. Make sure you have the correct one installed.
If that is not the problem, I think perhaps the grass is too dry? Maybe there isn't enough moisture in it to extract much. I really can't say, though. Try juicing something else, like carrots, and see if you can get some juice there.
If all else fails, contact Omega at their website. They have terrific customer service. I've tested it already with a warranty replacement.
