To make carrot juice, you need a heavy-duty juicer powerful enough to separate the carrot pulp from the carrot juice. One pound of carrots makes an 8-oz. glass of juice.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Wash fresh, whole carrots. Trim off the ends.

  2. Step 2

    Following instructions for your model, push carrots through juicer, catching juice in cup as directed.

  3. Step 3

    Clean pulp from strainer as you go along, if necessary.

  4. Step 4

    Drink juice immediately or within a few days. Carrot juice does not keep for long and tastes best when fresh.

Tips & Warnings
  • It is not necessary to peel the carrots, but if they are not organic, you may wish to.
  • Try running an inch or so of ginger root through the juicer with the carrots for a zesty variation.

on 4/16/2009 I use the Breville Juice Fountain Elite, which has a 1000-watt motor. It juices carrots thoroughly in a flash!http://joyousjuicer.com/blog

on 1/6/2007 I don't know how it is generally, but for me it takes a lot of time. A good way to speed things up is to leave the carrots in water for 3-5 minutes before you make the juice. This will get them moist and much more eager to turn into your juice :)
