Smoking Fanatic
Started out with a small amazon grinder and a cheap side-draft smoker......Nice set up. I didn't realize you had a business.
OK, so I am a bit of an extremest.......

Looks good but you are still gonna have wasted meat in the elbow with it coming off the bottom like that.
Ya. No pic here
I needed something yesterday . Darn sheep casings didn't want to coil up . Let us know how it comes out .

I store the sheep casings the same as I do the hog . Wet , always ready to go . Just rinse . Normally have no trouble with them , but the other day they just didn't want to come off the horn .Sheep casings are a pain! I have noticed that the longer I soak the hog casings the better they work. Not as tough to the bite and less blowouts. Not sure if it is the same with the sheep casings......Only tried them once for breakfast sausage....
Someone with more experience might ad to this.....
Looks good . How was the sausage ? That formula looks familiar , lol . I add whole eggs and milk . Helps with the mouth feel / texture . I also add the right amount of cure 1 . I like the cure in bratwurst .

Was totally blown away of the size/weight of mine too. Can't wait to use it. In the interest of full disclosure I find many small imperfections on mine. Definitely hallmarks of chinese knock off. I can live with it. Step up to real Hakka if that sort of thing bothers you. I am also very much interested in doing german sausages including one for currywurst. Yours look awesome Steve! Have not been to Germany (yet) but have a good currywurst recipe developed. I have plan for weisswurt with chicken instead of veal. Still worried the missus will freak with real casings so will stick to collagen for awhile. Plan to do some snack stick first. Not sure if the casings I have will fit but will give a try before grabbing a 10mm.
