I've tried various cleansers with brushes and Scotchbrite pads,
soaking in vinegar, soaking in baking soda, oven cleaner--all to no
avail.
As far as using salt or ice, I presume you mean running it through the
juicer. I could see that cleaning the blades perhaps, but doubtful
about cleaning the holes in the screen, although I'll consider trying
it anyway.
What I was hoping for was a tried-and-true solution, based on
someone's actual experience. With all the Champion juicers out there,
surely I am not the only one whose screen gets clogged, so surely
someone must have a solution that is known to work. You would think
that the manufacturer would have a product for this, but I have been
unable to find anything.
