I'm now going to buy a separate stuffer. The kit worked, after a fashion, however...
Being a conversion kit to the grinder, it naturally is elevated about a foot or so above the counter. The means that you cannot allow the stuffed casings rest on the counter as you stuff. The weight pulls the casing off the horn.
Also, trying to feed the ground meat through the machine was messy and difficult. You had to feed meat in, add more meat periodically, control the feeding of the casing, hold the sausage as it filled and, since you're doing all this stuff at once, start and stop the machine periodically. It's nearing impossible and very frustrating for one person to do alone.
Also, depending on the consistency, much of the meat came back up the feeder neck as I pulled the plastic plunger out. This means re-feeding the meat 3 or 4 times before it actually gets through the machine. A /very/ slow process. Rating:  Date: 2008-04-27 great for someone starting out This thing is great for someone starting out in sausage making. Using the mixer makes it a breeze, and cleanup is really easy. Rating:  Date: 2008-04-14 kitchenaid SSA It was a good idea that they made this but it has its flaws its hard to push the meat down and it dosnt take the meat throu by it self if you tryd a profesional stuffer you know what i mean but i guess its ok for small jobs i think you be better off buying a stuffer they rang between $60 and up Rating:  Date: 2008-04-05 ojo lo pedi por equivocacion no se como funiciona y tengo que tener la otra parte para poder usarlo Rating:  Date: 2008-03-14 Sausage Stuffer attachment Well...you CAN make sausage without one but it is really hard. I would recommend that you get this as soon as you buy the grinder attachment if you wan tto make yummy sausages. And don't forget the collagen casings to go along with it. |
