Product Usage
Using with the Food Grinder Attachment
WARNING: Rotating Blade Hazard
- ✋ Always use food pusher.
- ? Keep fingers out of openings.
- ? Keep away from children.
- ⚠️ Failure to do so can result in amputation or cuts.
- Cut food into small strips or pieces sized to fit into the feed tube.
- Turn the Stand Mixer to Speed 4 and feed food into the feed tube using the Food Pusher ✋.
Using with the Sausage Stuffer Attachment
- Feed meat into the Metal Food Grinder attachment before adding the sausage stuffer tube. This will eliminate air pockets.
- Lubricate the sausage stuffer tube and slide one casing over the tube, leaving about 10 cm to tie off the end.
- Turn the Stand Mixer on to Speed 4 and slowly push the meat through the grinder. Hold the casing firmly as it fills. If air bubbles are created during the fill process, use a pin or needle to pop the bubble.
- Run meat through until 10-15 cm of casing is left unfilled. Turn off the Stand Mixer and tie the remaining end of the casing, or use a tie string.
NOTE: For segmented-type sausage (e.g. bratwurst), twist casing ends in alternating directions at desired sausage link length.
