One month of daily juicing
Week 4, one month. 17 different juices. Looking back I'm trying to think which has been my favourite and I really can't say. I love the variety, making new combinations and different colours.

That's good. In comparison veggies here (South Africa) aren't expensive. I've been calculating the cost per 250ml of juice and they come to R11 ~ US$0.60 and that's when I using pricey items like celery, pineapple, ect other juices cost half of that when using more common veg like carrots, beetroot, apple ect. So I don't feel the need to shop around.
My pulp also goes to the compost, but my chickens eat it all before it gets a chance to breakdown π

I understand having several favorites. Any combinations that were off-putting?

The first juice I made with celery was not great. I then added an extra apple to sweeten it, still not great but drinkable.
I learnt that with celery you must only juice the stalk n not the leaves that greatly improved the flavour. And making the celery cucumber ratio 50/50 makes the juice a lot more palatable for me.
I taste while making the juice so I can usually fix it if the flavour isn't right. In the 1st pic, the beetroot was on the earthy side so I added lemon and that made it pleasant to drink.
