I just tried this food mill for the first time. I put raspberry through the fine disc and then medium disc-It only put juice thru what wrong?

It's only supposed to put through a fine product based on what you put through the disc. For example if you put cooked apples through it, it catches the skin and seeds and heavy pulp in the top and pushes through an applesauce type result. I've never put raspberries through although they are very delicate and maybe a strainer would have worked better? It probably separated the seeds and skin but because they are so small ad filled with liquid, it's not the best fruit choice for a mill? Hope this helps.

This is a great food mill to separate the seeds from juice. If you're wanting bits of fruit in your jam, you might use something else just to smash the berries instead of food mill. I've found the disc fits too tightly regardless of size. If I want fruit/seedds, I just smash the berries with a heavy glass or something similar. Hope this helps!

Use a soft fruit first, strawberries, peaches etc. then a hard fruit, carrots, ginger etc. alternate between the two. The hard fruit seems clean out the filter so juice keeps a coming.

I just used Swiss Chard today. You have to roll up the leafy greens and "sandwich" them between something like apples or cut the apple in half - top & bottom - put the green leafies between the halves....caution DO NOT force through the greens... let the juicer do its job. Otherwise, the motor will seize and you'll have to open it up and back out everything in the chute and start over with what's left. Oh, and there is NO PULP in the juice...all that goes into the pulp collector (As an extra: put a clean bag [biodegradables are available for this purpose] in the pulp collector and save the veggie pulp for soups & savory dishes and the fruit pulp for baked goods!)

I did black berries and a few seeds made their way into the juice, but most of them stayed in the pulp

I only juice I glass of mixed items a day. You are overworking your juicer to the extreme. Spend a couple hundred for a heavy duty juicer.

It should be very hot after the soy milk is done. Maybe you selected the "juice" option which it will only cuts the fruit but not heating up the juice. Or your machine is not working properly. You should contact the seller. Their customer service will be able to help you.

If you check the champion website it says that this problem is due to cutter hole needing to be cleaned or lack of lubrication. This shouldn't happen, I would make sure the cutter is clean and the shaft is clean, makes sure I'm not juicing to slowly to heat up the juicer or using vegetables like grass that are causing too much heat and then if your still having problems get a new cutter.

I put a raw carrot in my smoothies sometimes. It's best to cut it into slices first. Use the "whole juice" button.

Not so well, there is pulp in everything. I juice with a heavy-duty screen and then juice the juice with the original screen and there is still pulp.

Hi Eleanor D. I love my Waring juicer. The pulp stays inside, and it's really dry!!! No pulp in the juice though. :)

Hi Lisa: We also had an old one that leaked like a sieve, but it was probably 50 years old, so that's what prompted me to buy a different one. This one, I do keep a little bowl on the floor in case it drips.........I have found it'll drip a small amount if I'm making 'V5', and my carrots aren't mushy enough. The strainer probably isn't made for that, but that food mill will go through anything. So, in answer to your question, I would say 'yes', but only a matter of a few drops........NOTHING like my previous mill, where most of the juice was on the floor. Hope this helps!

Perhaps the smallest disc will do that. If not, suggest after running your raspberries through it, then run them through a cheese cloth. Hope that helps.

The unit works well with beets and cabbage. What I found was that any fibrous veggie I'm using, I cut across the fiber length, leaving shorter fibers. Short fibers tend to not clog the pulp chute as easily. Ginger root, definitely needs to be cut small and across the fiber!.Bottom line though, unless you're looking for a pulp machine instead of a juice machine, this unit is best on the market. It takes more juice out the veggies than any other machine I've used or seen used.

I don't see where anyone is saying the food is only pushed around. Reviews say the products works whether you use larger or smaller amounts of item. Make sure you are using the right attachments in the food mill. There are different ones, you might want to try a couple of them to see which one does what you want it to. I use smaller and larger amounts and it works great.

I have an older vita-mix. I know there has been some debate between blending and juicing. I think juicing is the way to go. I rather have veggie juice than anything made in the vita-mix.

It was likely overloading the motor, I love my Kitchen Aid mixer but I have been beyond disappointed in the food processor. I tried to make peanut butter and it couldn't hack it the motor kept stopping. I had a cheapy $40 food processor before this one and it was better than this. Good luck, have you had any luck trying to slice veggies without them all getting stuck up in the lid?

Mine's the same, but it's very little pulp and it's only slightly moist. Some foods move through cleaner than others.
