I just bought my grinder this week, it gets here tomorrow. I'm buying the mixer and the stuffer next month and have decided long ago, that I ain't cranking anything! I'm too old for that and that electric stuffer looks like it does the trick! Hats off to Miss Shelly for thinking so nicely of you. What a nice gift! Congratulations and thank you both for the video! 🙋
I don't know if you figured this out yet, but if you flip the gasket over and oil it with white food grade oil, there will be less squeeze out of meat on top of the plunger. I have the same stuffer rebranded from Vevor, at least I think they are the same, and I had the same squeeze out problem until I flipped the gasket.
We add 10% water to our mixing meat when we make batch Then consistent threw out mixture also add veg oil mineral oil to seals plunger I been lucky my press hydronic and works great but never have problems
Just sold mine yesterday. Had the same one but a 15 lb. Took me an hour and a half to stuff 15 lbs. of snack sticks through a 1/2” tube adding double the amount of water the recipe calls for. Gonna try The Sausage Maker’s economical motorized one.
You probably already know this but, in case you don't.... you can tell how much is left in the can by how far the piston rod is sticking out above the machine.
Any issue with smoking after adding water to the meat? I couldn't get my eletric stuffer to press it for snack sticks but it works for summer sausage. We didn't add water, I was worried about the consistency or added smoke time if adding water.
It may add a little time to the smoke process, but do you cold smoke or smoke and cook the meat as well? If you cook and smoke, once your internal temp is 155 Fahrenheit, you should be good.
I add about a gallon of water to 25 lbs. It takes a lot for snack sticks. I added a fan in my smoker to help remove that moisture. Final product comes out just as good. Need to cook longer to remove the water.
I expected a little stronger motor and easier pressing. If you add a fair amount of water to your sausage, and no extras, like cheese and jalapeños, it does fine.
@brownshomesteadharvesthouse based on link you provided its a 40 watt motor. The hakka brother stuffer uses 60 watt. I'm looking at a intbuying electric sausage stuffer with 120 watt motor. I'm finding same specs on numerous brands with what appears to be exact same motor. I think its the same stuffer and companies just slap their sticker on it
Thank u. Had the same issue last night on my machines first run. Had 200 lbs mixed and waiting for Germans and bratts. Thought id have to return it in a destroyed crate. You saved me the shipping my friend
Brother Brown you should oil the plunger o- ring and inside of the stuffer
I likes the fact you show your learning process because I can learn from your mistakes. Thanks for saving me a ton of time.
Glad i could help!!!!
Fully agree with the lubing part also use a little more water in the mix and you'll be smiling.

would love to get a full tour of your butcher shop.
I plan on giving a tour of the entire harvest house in a future video, thanks for the interest.
Soak those casings in warm water for 30 minutes prior to use. It will make the stuffing process much easier.

Thanks for video. It was very helpful in my decision making.
Hi, what make is the manufacturer? I am looking at maches at the moment.
Revson
Waltons sell a package of sillcone eaggs that you plae in the elbow tgat pushes it out of that area
How much to you leave in the bottom when it hits to stop ?
About a 1/4 pound of meat is left in the can. We package that and suggest mixing with scrambled eggs in the morning.
Where did get sausage stuffer mate
The electric or the manual?

@Brown’s Homestead Harvest House just smoke not cold smoke.

As others have said, add more water for those snack sticks. I will push out better
What watt motor? Are you happy with the rovson?

@@rob4263 all i can say is get as strong or big as you can
How meat does hold meat mate
Put on a couple of washers between the rod and piston you will get more stuffed and the auto stop still will work
Thank you for the suggestion, i will try it.
Use 2 oz. Water per pound
Thank u. Had the same issue last night on my machines first run. Had 200 lbs mixed and waiting for Germans and bratts. Thought id have to return it in a destroyed crate. You saved me the shipping my friend
Hand crank you would have been done in 2 minutes
I ADD 5 1/2 POUNDS OF WATER TO 25 LBS OF MEAT FOR SAUSAGE I ADD A LITTLE EXTRA IF MAKING SNACK STICKS TO AVOID OVER AMPING YOUR MOTOR.😁😁😁
Thanks man for the advice, appreciate you watching.
Your meat is to dry...
Yea, i figured that out on the next go round, thanks for the input.
