Rated power

The power generated by the meat grinder motor during operation. The efficiency of work directly depends on the power: the greater the power, the more solid products the meat grinder is able to process and, usually, the higher the capacity (see Capacity). For most cases, a meat grinder with a power of 100 – 400 W is sufficient, however, for complex work with “heavy” products, more powerful devices are still required.

Rated is the power at which the device is able to operate for a long time without overheating, breakdown and other unpleasant consequences.

Peak power

Peak power is responsible for emergency situations, the device is able to work on it for a short time, however, long-term work with such a load is fraught with a meat grinder breakdown.

Capacity

The amount of meat that the meat grinder can process in one minute. More powerful meat grinders(see Power) are usually more performant, however, these two parameters are not directly related — the meat grinders with the same capacity may have different power, and vice versa, equally powerful devices may differ significantly in performance.

Number of speeds

The presence of several speeds allows you to select the desired mode for processing a particular product. The speed of the meat grinder directly affects its performance. Usually, meat grinders have a minimum number of speeds, one or two, in rare cases — three. The initial speed is suitable for processing small and medium-sized pieces, while it will be possible to effectively grind even large-sized products at higher speeds.

Nozzles

— Disk for minced meat. Classic universal disc for minced meat, fish, vegetables, etc. It is a metal disk with holes made in it. Sometimes a meat grinder can come with several discs with different hole sizes, which allows you to adjust the consistency of the product at the outlet.

— Drums for grating or chopping allow you to grate or cut vegetables evenly. The drum grater is a cylinder with holes, as on a conventional grater, in the chopping drum, instead of holes, narrow slots with blades are made. Such drums are installed in a meat grinder instead of a spiral screw.

Nozzle for kibbeh. Kibbeh is a dish of fried meat sausages stuffed with various fillings. Many modern meat grinders are equipped with nozzles for minced meat in the form of hollow tubes, into which the filling is then inserted.

For dicing. Attachment designed for cutting meat and other products in the form of small cubes. Unlike ordinary minced meat, this “format” of products preserves not only the original taste, but also the consistency of the products, and at the same time makes it easy to mix them with other ingredients. Such a nozzle is useful, in particular, for salads and soups.

— Nozzle for homemade sausages dispenses minced meat through a narrow neck, to which the casing is connected. By filling this shell, sausage is prep...ared.

Cutlet moulds. A capacity for minced meat, with which you can quickly and easily form cutlets out of it. This eliminates the need to mould them with your hands, in addition, if there is a mould, cutlets are obtained in the same size and shape.

For tomatoes or soft vegetables. Attachment for getting mashed soft vegetables and making tomato juice.

The citrus juicer is a rotating ledge with a ribbed surface. To get juice, you need to manually put half of the fruit on it with the pulp down and press strongly. Due to this procedure, the juice is squeezed out of the pulp, and the peel remains intact.

For grinding coffee (spices). The grinder with characteristic grinding rods, which used for grinding grains (including coffee), oilseeds crops, cereals, legume. It is perfect for making flour. Usually in such nozzles it is possible to adjust the degree of grinding.

For pasta (macaroni). Pasta discs with holes of different sizes for certain types of pasta (tagliatelle, fettuccini, noodles, etc.) have become popular. — Nozzle for cookies. Device for making figured cookies and pastries. This is a disk nozzle and a movable plate attached to it with template holes for molding figured dough. For making of cookies, it is recommended to use low and medium speeds of the meat grinder.

Body material

The body of a modern meat grinder is most often made of plastic or metal. Plastic devices usually weigh less and cost less; in turn, metal ones are more durable and look “more solid”. At the same time, there are models made of both of these materials — plastic and metal. Such a solution elevates the models to a more status rank, but at the same time does not deprive them of lightness and design variations.

Loading tray material

The loading tray in modern meat grinders can be made of plastic or metal. Plastic trays are lighter and cheaper, but prone to scratches and discoloration over time, while more expensive metal trays are stronger and more durable.
