Waltons Quick patty Maker

PETG is not soluble by acetone, only ABS. There are solvents for PETG, but they are pretty nasty. The issue is not really “safe for food contact” but can it be sterilized. A 3D printed single use item is fine. I’ve tried to print air tight vessels and realized just how porous 3D printed items are. You end up with juices and fat pushed into the pores, which then collect bacteria, which then contaminates the next batch.

Look a there you are correct ethyl acetate is the compound used to smooth/melt PETG. Your concerns are noted. I will keep them in mind when I venture down the road of modifications. I think if it were something I was going to use indefinitely I would probably have to look at a process similar to this:

Finally had a moment to take it out of the box.

I am thinking about just buying 80/20 ground and running it through my 25lb mixer with the seasonings. Then use my 15lb stuffer to make the patties. Lay them out on sheet pans and freeze them and then vacuum packaging them 8 to a pack. I think I am going to run 14lbs at a time which should make 42ish burgers or 5 packs.

Not trying to hijack the post but I have been looking at this. Does anyone know if the quick patty maker will fit on a Cabela’s Carnivore #12 grinder?

badfire2625 It should. It should fit any #8, #12, #22, or #32 grinder, plus any sausage stuffer with an opening diameter of 2.25". It is pretty much a universal fit.
