Meat Mincers

We use a single phase American mincer at work for carcass mincing. Can't remember the brand and not back to work till next week, but was about $3K so a bit much for home use unless you are doing a heap. I still have to run them through the bandsaw first or the mincer stalls out, ( actually even our big 3 phase mincer stalls on anything bigger than 40ish mm).

Has anyone had success with the mincer attachment on the heavy duty Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer? The Kitchen Aid Pro I think it is, the one that does not have the head lift up to change beaters but the bowl goes up and down. Rated for professional dough kneading for baking.

My workmate was telling me about his one today. He loves his one.

He puts a bowl and scales directly under the mincer and seals up the bags once they hit 500g.

He reckons it has plenty of grunt and never looks like it’s struggling.

I have one but have only used it a couple of times for mincing in the kitchen. Have not processed a large qty but will be over the summer, I hope. It is a pretty grunty motor alright. The one Ive used most but again for small jobs is the old Kenwood with a mincer attachment. Those things are 40 or more years old and cheap to get hold of. They burn condensors out with age which costs about $120 to fix including a full service and electrical warranty. My wife wont use anything else in the kitchen so I am not inclined to thrash it. She hates the KitchenAid so went and got her the old Kenwood for about $80 at the time with all the attachments. An Estate sale.
