5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than I expected - all the occasional sausage-maker needs
Unusually, the item in hand looks better than the picture on the website. Given it is the most basic proper stuffer you can buy, it really works as well as you'd need for small quantity occasional sausage making. Actually rather fun to use. There is plenty of control with the handle on the screw, and no effort to turn it, even with a coarse grind. The worst bit is getting the casings on the nozzle, and you have to do that with any sausage stuffer.The main deficiency is lack of a washer sealing the piston-head. Expensive models have the piston head sealed with an O-ring, and also have a pressure-release valve. I improvised a washer by cutting a plastic disk out of a polypropylene food carton lid (recycle number 5 PP), very slightly larger than the piston head itself, and that did the job. Still ran very smooth, and no meat escaped behind the piston head.The barrel is nicely milled aluminium alloy of a good quality, and of sufficient gauge it should not too easily dent or become mishapen. But clearly it has no structural bracing and could be dented or misshapen with rough handling, and should be treated almost like glassware. The end caps are not quite as nice, being of rather basic zinc alloy. Those could be brittle, and should also be handled like glassware. The cap threads could easily be damaged by cross-threading, and I put a little oil on them for easier turning. The centre screw is zinc-plated steel. The piston-head is some cheap alloy, and is held on with a steel spring, which will easily go rusty so don't leave it soaking in water for too long. The stand is chrome plate.It says it holds 1kg, but I found 1kg of trimmed meat turned into sausage mix, with no rusk, filled it one and half times. It is a little tedious that you fill it from the nozzle end, so you have to be a little careful when refilling it part way through a stuff, but it was straightforward to achieve. That's one slight irritation you'll avoid with a better model. I was even able to push the last bit of meat left in the nozzle into the casing quite easily using the handle of a wooden spoon to push it down the detached nozzle.I have a smooth worktop and the suction pad held fine, and I didn't need any help from an assistant.It is perfectly possible to grind meat to sausage texture in a food processor, with a little care, if you find out about the role of salt and temperature in achieving that. So this is the only specialist piece of kit needed for small scale sausage making. I succeeded quite easily at the first attempt, with nothing like the panics and disasters of my early attempts of other kinds of "advanced" cookery.
4.0 out of 5 stars Works very well!
This was my first attempt ever to make sausages and since I'd noticed that some meat mincer reviews had comments that indicated that people preferred to use a separate sausage "stuffer", I thought I would try this first before splashing out on a meat mincer/grinder. I'm happy I did because I found it very easy to use. I bought mince (20% fat) and added a variety of herbs and spices and soaked the casings etc. The trickiest part is threading the casing onto the nozzle, but they are surprisingly robust. The sausages came out looking as they should and I did not need a second person to help, it was very easy. The suction cup worked well - it wobbled a little bit on the kitchen bench but worked fine. My only minor gripe is that there is quite a bit of mince left in the nozzle at the very end which I managed to dig out and turn into little patties. Next time I would add a slice of bread or a bread roll - this would then be the last part of the mixture to be squeezed out of the "stuffer" and could be discarded. Or I could simply accumulate little meat patties!I'm so pleased with my efforts I'm like a puppy with two tails! Now I just need to scour the internet to find good recipes for interesting sausages (particularly boerewors) and think about a meat mincer for a Christmas pressie...
5.0 out of 5 stars Never been stuffed so well !
Brilliant. Easy. Cheap.I spent over £100 on my mincing and stuffing machine. The nozzle was too big for making chipolatas. This comes with 3 different sizes and is so much easier to use. The control of stuffing speed based on how quickly you turn the handle makes it easier to use than an electric machine. It doesn't waste much sausage mix and cleaning is fairly easy too. I haven't noticed significant metallic colouring in the mix as some others have said.For the price I think this is an ideal start to sausage making. Would I like a stainless steel version? Of course I would, but it won't be anywhere near as cheap. I'd recommend it and enjoy using it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use
Great for making sausages. Only slight problem is that the suction pad did not hold the unit steady enough.
4.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use, works well, a bit small, why not SS?
I am happy with the product, in general.It is easy to secure, operate and clean and works well stuffing sausages.I have posted some pictures too.I have used it on 3 occasions so far and was happy with the results every time. You can adjust the sausage girth easily by regulating the speed at which the intestine moves out.Can be easily operated by just one person, though it is easier with two if you are doing a lot of sausages.Some issues:Why wasn't made with SS? The aluminium can oxidise a bit and can not be washed in a dishwasher. (The shaft seems SS)It is a bit small; you will get about 750g of stuffing in each time so you will need to refill regularly (easy to do).The suction cup can not be removed easily so you need to make sure the inside parts are dry (air dry only...) before storing.The tube's inside appears scratched, after doing about 20kg of sausages. I hope that this will be just a cosmetic problem.There is some juice leakage during use so the whole system is not sealed very well. This is a minor issue.
