Wheatgrass shot in slow juicer
- Blend completely as much as possible. If making in juicer it gets jammed after making 90 to 120 ml. You will have to remove the pulp manually and continue to juice.
Wheatgrass shot using mortar & hand pestle
- If making in a hand pestle, you will have to make a complete smooth paste. Then add it to a cheese cloth and extract the juice.
Wheatgrass shot in blender
- If making in a blender too, you will have to add to a cheese cloth. Extract the juice.
- Consume 60 to 120 ml immediately after juicing. Within few minutes wheatgrass juice begins to get oxidized and the nutritional values begin to diminish.
