I love his videos, always positive and I find him funny. Apparently juice the rind also = increased Citrulline = Natural Viagra. Nice bit of extra stamina for lurve and/or JJ.
I used a strainer and a round ladle and it works just as well as the Gracie Juice Bag. Works for cantaloupes as well. All you need to do is use the rounded bottom of the ladle and rub it around the edges of the strainer as you stir the juice around. This ends up clearing up the holes of the strainer, allowing juice to flow through but keeping the pulp inside.
When eating a meal it's better to make juice instead of getting soda. It also makes it easier to eat so you can get all of the nutrients of it quickly. Makes it less of a hastle. Make it all at once and everyone can enjoy a WHOLE watermelon without letting any of it go to waste. I hate it when food goes to waste like that.
Hey guys! Just used my new Gracie Juice Bag to make cucumber juice in my entry for Leblon Cachaça's BATIDAFEST cocktail competition. The batida is called 7 DEADLY C'S for Cucumber, Coconut, Cinnamon, Cardamom, and Cilantro. I don't imagine that the 7th C (Cachaça) is part of the Gracie diet, but thought you'd be glad to know I'm applying your family's wisdom to the world of mixology. Much respect, and thanks for all you do.
I just received my juice bag and it works great. I used to buy my watermelon juice from Trader Joe's but they stopped selling it about 9 months ago. Now I can have all the juice I want. I use the juice to make watermelon margaritas, its great because alcohol dehydrates but watermelon hydrates so you get less of a hangover or sometimes none at all.
Straining it would not increase the intake of vitamins if you drank the whole thing in one sitting. But what I believe Rener was talking about was more vitamins per serving. Which is true because the pulp would not take up some of the space that would otherwise be pure juice, meaning more vitamins.
Hey, great tips on both using the blender and the cloth. Before I saw your vid I put the watermelon through my processer to chop it first before using the blender. Then I filtered it through a wire strainer, not very effective. I'm going to have a few of those bags sewn for me. Excellent performance too, you've got a great style.
You need the Juicebag because 1. the blender does not extract the juice - it blends it, which is different (see the gersen theory disapproves of blending) 2. a watermelon cannot fit in the champion (would take forever) and 3. Juicing a watermelon with a Centrifugal Juicer provides the most oxidation and thus the least amount of active enzyems and nutritional content (also see the gersen theory). alternative would be a Citris Juicer or the Juice Factory Press (highly recommended but costs $385.
how do u know its a bad watermelon besides hitting it i ate a watermelon couple days ago the inside was a little white not all super red and i ate alooottt of it kuzz it tasted good and after i had a stomache ache idk if it was from tooo much or becuz it was bad
Rener's enthusiasm is killing me! :) haha! And I like that you put a disclaimer at the end: "Saved for later" simply means we DO NOT eat the pulp. LOL!
Not sure Rener will read this, but has anyone tried this juice bag for making coconut oil? Home made cold processed coconut oil might be a great addition to those already on the gracie diet.
I have a question. Instead of a juice bag, can't we just use a strainer? Wouldn't it be less messy and you don't have to use your hands also? Pouring it through the strainer would be better I think. Or no?
Max Guan Hey. Yeah man. I decided to buy it about few months ago and you're definitely right. I tried using both method. Strainer sucks. It clogs so much, opposed to the bag, where I don't have to worry about clogging since juice comes out through side of the bag, not just clogged on the bottom. And it's fun to squeeze as you said, while getting every bit of juice out of the pulp.
For sure, but this is so great to take to the office or while traveling when bringing a juicer isn't an option. Also great for home made almond milk. ;)
@TheShadowlocker you seem to not watch al his videos on gracie diet i see. look at the corner at 8:09 on the left tell me that isnt a champion juicer which is worth a lot more than any normal juicer.
LMAO, I FUCKING LOVE THESE FUCKING GUYS!!! They try to sell everything, great business people. They have a cheese cloth (as has been mentioned a few times here) and they try to sell it to you, they cell useless crap and morons actually buy it. No joke these guys are geniuses I have total respect for their ambition.
I just got my juice bags! and the first one was teared before i touched it. One of the otherone was working great! Im sending the teared one back to you =) up next I am buying the champion juice maschine.
WOW! Talk about overdramatizing a simple task. "Specially made Gracie juice bag"? It's a cheesecloth. They also throw away a great source of fiber. The Gracies are legends in BJJ but they obviously are not dieticians.
Or you can buy some cheese cloth. Thanks Gracies! You were top dogs at one time, but you now have to learn to full scope of MMA. Gracies haven't really "evolved" while the rest of us have. I'm not knocking you, you are true legends of MMA.
@bobokk there is nutrients in the skin of the watermelon that you can't eat but can drink how is this I don't know but there is lycopene which is really good for you, and the juice to me anyway is alot more refreshing on a summer day than eating it. I still eat it but i prefer the juice just because i like it better i don't know why.
Wow thats a very red watermelon...Btw...wouldnt it be better to just cut up the entire water melon and keep it in a box rather than keep a massive watermelon in the fridge and ahve to sut it up everytime?
I appreciate what the gracie family has done for the sport, but basically this is a nut mylk bag anyone can buy off of amazon for pennies. no need to buy a gracie juice bag.
Dedication and Tradition. Hats off to their family for passing on this awsomeness.
Instructions not clear,i heel hooked the watermelon
Rener- you kill me 😂 love his personality.
He is. I admire that ability to explain everything clearly. Probably from teaching his whole life.
Custom made bag my foot. Its a grain bag used in homebrewing beer.
He's the best teacher at everything. I love the different angles for slicing the flesh off the rind
How am I just finding out about this 15yrs later!!? Wow....he was ahead of his time for sure.
rener I love these videos you and your brother are hilarious and very informative.
I love his videos, always positive and I find him funny.
Apparently juice the rind also = increased Citrulline = Natural Viagra. Nice bit of extra stamina for lurve and/or JJ.
Just ordered can't wait to make some watermelon 🍉 juice 🤙🏼🤙🏼
never thought id be watching a cooking show hosted by a gracie
I got my bag today and have a watermelon for tonight after the University.
Gracie is a lifestyle. 😁

even the kictchen breakdowns are exiting

its just a nylon cloth, it really works well. ive made one myself. The gracie diet is available online
ive watched this video like 5 times already...just orderd gracie diet book and juice bag...........CANT WAIT TO MAKE THIS

Their watermelon slicing technique is second to none.
I saw this on the food network. he was a special guest during Rachel Ray's show
so what about the seeds? do you just leave them in there?
I love watching this

All of that work to make something unhealthy.

How long do I cook it in the oven???

Hey Rener, could this be used on other veggies and fruits to make juice out of them. I'm thinking of getting the juice bag instead of a juicer.
Whats about the stones in the melone.
Stay them in the fruit and get mixed in the mixer??
I can`t see that Rener remove them.
how do u know its a bad watermelon besides hitting it i ate a watermelon couple days ago the inside was a little white not all super red and i ate alooottt of it kuzz it tasted good and after i had a stomache ache idk if it was from tooo much or becuz it was bad
Would you be able to store some if you make extra?
Thanks Rener I will try this some time.
man that looks good !!!! i wna make that and banana ice cream which looked amazing!!!!
Excellent info here.....Very nutritional
thanks again Rener
Rener's enthusiasm is killing me! :) haha!
And I like that you put a disclaimer at the end:
"Saved for later" simply means we DO NOT eat the pulp. LOL!
your a great role model.
I love my juice bag and the champ juicer 😍😎
OMG Rener!! You are so funny! I love you ;) "Pure, golden tasting juice!" Classic!
Awesome video! I'm gonna make some watermelon juice!!
I called someone a Gracie Juice Bag the other day, which ended in me being choked and beaten badly with a bag of pulp
I am keeping it real, thanks to the Gracies
What benefits does watermelon juice offer to bjj performance?
im assuming the juice bag catches the seeds too
cheese cloths stitched together. awsome idea
Don't forget, the Gracies invented the watermelon. Also, if you decide to use cheesecloth instead, it would not be, the "gracie way".
What about the seeds? Do you blend those too?
+moxsum the seeds are put together in the blender, but don't pass in the bag.
I was expecting him to put a triangle choke on the Gracie Juice Bag to get the last of the watermelon juice out...."and you squeeze!"
Not sure Rener will read this, but has anyone tried this juice bag for making coconut oil? Home made cold processed coconut oil might be a great addition to those already on the gracie diet.
I have a question. Instead of a juice bag, can't we just use a strainer? Wouldn't it be less messy and you don't have to use your hands also? Pouring it through the strainer would be better I think. Or no?
The bag gets all the water still left over in the pulp as well. Plus it's damn fun to squeeze :D
Max Guan Hey. Yeah man. I decided to buy it about few months ago and you're definitely right. I tried using both method. Strainer sucks. It clogs so much, opposed to the bag, where I don't have to worry about clogging since juice comes out through side of the bag, not just clogged on the bottom. And it's fun to squeeze as you said, while getting every bit of juice out of the pulp.
Do you buy organic or conventional watermelon?
Why watermelon juice? is it good for trainin and energy?
so where can i get this juice bag??
1/4 of a watermelon provides enough juice for 3-4 adults in our household!
still makes me laugh after all these years.
Great Technique
For sure, but this is so great to take to the office or while traveling when bringing a juicer isn't an option. Also great for home made almond milk. ;)
lol the gracie juice bag :)))) u guys so rock!!
hahaha :)
am gonna try this at home :) i have to get that juice bag!!
I'm drooling on the keyboard while watching this =P
@TheShadowlocker you seem to not watch al his videos on gracie diet i see. look at the corner at 8:09 on the left tell me that isnt a champion juicer which is worth a lot more than any normal juicer.
Jesus Rener... No one needs to be drinking that much sugar. Holy shit.
i think he means if you just drink the juice throughout the day and trash the pulp, you can cram more vitamins without getting as full.
i thnk im gonna get the juice bag soon!
"And you squeeze....1....and you release."
classic
Juice bag = cheesecloth
Looks delicious!
@2010gt1 Obviously. If it catches the pulp, it will most definitely catch the seeds brah (they're bigger than the pulp fibers)
LMAO, I FUCKING LOVE THESE FUCKING GUYS!!! They try to sell everything, great business people. They have a cheese cloth (as has been mentioned a few times here) and they try to sell it to you, they cell useless crap and morons actually buy it. No joke these guys are geniuses I have total respect for their ambition.
lol you got a little too excited there Rener...no problem though we love you guys.
I m blind or theres no seeds in this watermelon?
lol the gracies seem to be blessed with unique genius! "and then i take the juice, i find the entry" haha hilarious
They need to get that recipe on a T-shirt
I just got my juice bags! and the first one was teared before i touched it. One of the otherone was working great! Im sending the teared one back to you =)
up next I am buying the champion juice maschine.
nice...im going to try it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i gotta try it...
Why the hell wouldn't you use the cap?
WOW! Talk about overdramatizing a simple task. "Specially made Gracie juice bag"? It's a cheesecloth. They also throw away a great source of fiber. The Gracies are legends in BJJ but they obviously are not dieticians.
Blend fruits and juice vegetables that's how it works.
Or you can buy some cheese cloth. Thanks Gracies! You were top dogs at one time, but you now have to learn to full scope of MMA. Gracies haven't really "evolved" while the rest of us have. I'm not knocking you, you are true legends of MMA.

Is this juice jitzu
haha, this shit was funny, "rotate, rotate" "all we're doing is making it completely liquidly"
couldnt they just use the juicer to get rid of the pulp...
i love how they say "the gracie diet" when nobody except them quite know what that really is
he's trying to choke the GRACIE BAG lol
I love JuiceJitsu!
i love juice-itsu!
Great, not only are the Gracies masters of bjj, they are masters of juice too?
his squeezing technique is superb. probably cos he has a beast rear naked choke^^
@yardape99 Wow. You're right. You can use a Nut Milk Bag.
Wow thats a very red watermelon...Btw...wouldnt it be better to just cut up the entire water melon and keep it in a box rather than keep a massive watermelon in the fridge and ahve to sut it up everytime?
Gracie watermelon juice rules!!! lol
@Firagax2: The body doesn't need fiber? Seriously? You obviously went to the same dietary school as the gracies.
@twinkie347 have you ever tried to cut watermelon or sweetcorn with a knife that isnt sharp... its not fun lol
I appreciate what the gracie family has done for the sport, but basically this is a nut mylk bag anyone can buy off of amazon for pennies. no need to buy a gracie juice bag.
lmao..i heard that drinking that helps your shoulder cuffs from snapping when in a kimura or omoplata
Don't buy Gracie juice bags just use cheese cloth "you can't buy this in store" cheese cloth is available pretty much everywhere
i want that effing juice bag aaahhhhh
+GracieAcademy Can you not just use the juicer?
I am guessing they don't drink coffee?
yes
