recommendation for meat grinder

I'm limited to about 1500W by the electricity here.
More than that risks blowing a fuse. I live in
an old house, in which electricity and plumbing
were added after the house was built. I've been
told it was originally a barn, which explains the
dirt floor downstairs.

It's either you or the meat man... I had some chuck ground by the
butcher last week and didn't ask him trim it first. I drained it
well, but didn't rinse and it was still too fatty for me. Next time
I'll tell him to take some of the fat off first.

If you already have one of those, why did you just get a KA? It has a
smaller bowl for smaller jobs and doesn't seem as bulky as the KA is.

You can always install a new service entrance, breaker
box, and several new circuits thus allowing you to run
several industrial-scale meat grinders simultaneously
so that you can grind hundreds of pounds of meat per
minute.

Or you could get the Kitchenaid attachment.

For me, that's been since Windows came on the scene. Frankly, there
has been nothing to get excited about since Win 3.1 (well, really
3.11).

No different than the auto industry. That GM water pump will not fit a
Ford, but there are plenty of third party units that will.

OTOH, they are not locking you into using their lenses, but your next camera
purchase. If you have a large collection of Brand X lenses, you probably
won't be quick to change to Brand Y

Ah, I see how the KithenAid people are locking people
into their system. Kind of like how Nikon and Canon
used to lock people into their film cameras.
 
A couple of us recommended the Kitchenaid meat grinder attachment and
the OP said he didn't have a Kitchenaid.

Just curious- did you replace the mixer with a different brand, or
did the new one not take older style attachments?

If you changed brands- what did you come from and go to.

I like having one motor that does lots of things. So far I haven't
been disappointed in the kitchenaid attachments- as far as I can
tell they haven't changed in 30-40 years.

In article , [email protected] says...

It was never as simple as "screw or bayonet". There were two fairly
common screw mounts, Leica and Pentax, and a few others less common, and
ever manufacturer that had a bayonet made their own design.

There most assuredly is an adapter to use OM lenses on Canon EOS
cameras, whether film or digital
. There is no adapter to use
them on Nikon as the Nikon body is thicker than the Olympus body and
they would not be able to focus to infinity. While the Minolta body is
thinner than the Olympus the mount diameter is also smaller, so again
you couldn't make a mount that would focus to infinity.

I don't know where anyone gets the idea that digital cameras with
interchangeable lenses are all made in the same factory with different
names on them. The mounts are different, the internal components are
different, in some cases the designs are radically different. Compare
an Olympus E-PL2 with a Canon 5D Mk II, compare both of those with a
Nikon D-90.

Nikon digitals use the same mount that Nikon has always used. Canon
uses the EF mount that they've been using ever since they first produced
the EOS line of film cameras. Sony is using the same A mount that
Minolta has been using ever since they introduced the Maxxum. Olympus,
Panasonic, and Leica have signed onto the four-thirds consortium and
make cameras that can interchange lenses between the three brands--some
of those models _are_ made in the same factory with different brands.
However Leica also makes their digital M line which uses the same lenses
and accessories as every other Leica M.

The lock is that the NEXT time you buy a camera, you have a pantload
of lenses that only fit the previous brand.

I watched a documentary on Kitchen Aid stand mixers, they said that all
attachments since the first mixer came off the assembly line can still be used
on today's models.

You could always buy other lenses, but the mounts usually only worked
with one camera brand. I had some Tamron and Vivitar lenses, as I
recall.

I have several Canon digitals now...P&S & DSLRs, and always remove the
card. Wait, I take that back...I have to use the cable for the new
16mb SDHC card I got, because my computer card reader will not
recognize anything over 8. I just got the card a week or so ago and
found this out. No reason to go out and buy a new computer...hmmm...or
is it?

I'll reserve judgment until I take Betsy out for a test run this
weekend.

Do they make those for the bowl-raised version, too?

Frankly, if I have ever worked with an odd dough, I just stop the
mixer and use a rubber scraper to floop it all together. Can't say
that on other mixers it has been so much of a problem that I'd shell
out more for another beater.

I don't know if I saw the same documentary but the KA mixers have a "never
die" repair/rebuild or replace factory. The extent of "never die" probably
applies to the motor works. I've never enquired about parts or attachments.
