8. Can I use a blender to make wheatgrass juice?
No, this type of machine usually cuts and spins at high speed, reducing the quality, taste, and properties of the juice. Also, the amount of juice obtained from these devices is much lower than from cold pressing, and it requires much more grass for one ounce.

It is ideal to consume it right away. However, you can store the juice in the refrigerator for 6 to 7 days and still benefit from its properties (its taste and appearance may change over time). Keep in mind that using a cold-press juicer significantly slows down the normal oxidation process, maintaining most of the vitamins, minerals, and enzymes in the wheatgrass.

Yes, you can also consume powdered wheatgrass. The way to do this is by mixing it with a little juice (for example, orange juice) or simply diluting it in water.
