I'm not familiar with that juicer,
However, is there an adjustment that can increase pressure?
What you attempted to juice does not sound like a lot to me,
maybe a few drops, but then again email, words, how do you convey
details like that clearly? =)
See if you can increase pressure, I would imagine you *feel* the
grinding process as you turn the handle. My electric guy bogs
down and even grunts a little as it begins to grind the wheat grass.
My results, and I assume for most, you learn as you go, with not as
much juice as expected. Then you learn when the blades are at
peak, and then how to capture the most juice. I have ran the pulp
through a second time, with good results, however the additional
juice has a bit more bitter taste. Perhaps a result of more air.
Let us know how your doing in a few weeks.
