Stuffer Tube Compatibilities
-
Hello Everyone,
I have a LEM BIG BITE DUAL GEAR 10 LB. SAUSAGE STUFFER and want to make smaller Snack Stix. The smallest horn LEM makes for that stuffer is 16mm or 5/8".
Does anyone know if you can use the Walton’s horns, specifically the Walton’s 10mm SS Stuffing Tube: SKU: 670866 , on my LEM Stuffer?

It would be great if PokeChop could edit the title of this thread and change “Tub” to “Tube”. In the future, that would make it easier for someone else to do a search on this topic and find this thread.

Grimpuppy n fact the manual reads to add 100mg water and not delay after mixing
Should that be milliliters instead of mg? I did a #5 batch last night used 7 ounces of water which is about 200 ML. Used my 10mm tube and it stuffed like a dream. As a note, smaller stuffers with smaller pistons with handle the smaller tubes much better than larger diameter piston stuffers will.

ml.
100 mg of water is a very small amount. -

Grimpuppy g and ml water weight are the same in “water” volume vs weight. i use a metric scale to weigh mg water weight. you may be much happier to do all metric weight. More precise and easier to work with when your scaling recipes. I follow the mixer instructions. If you wait too long after the mix it will turn into cement… Very hard to stuff. Just for facts: Most commercially processed meats / Deli have as much as 50% water batched in. That $10 a pound deli ham cold cut is $5 water / $5 meat . That’s why it turns slimy after a few days. The additives give out and the water starts to escape

Grimpuppy 200ml=200g “water”

Grimpuppy What is the knife? New website will have some better features for stockouts. FYI I was meeting with brett the other day and we were talking about stock-out reports and with seasoning we are still running around 99.5% fulfillment, it is equipment that has hurt us this past year. We also talked about Victornix being fairly far behind on orders, so I was wondering if it was one of those knives?
Yes, It is the Victronix 6” boning knife.

Maybe I am not doing the conversion right? . When I converted it, 100 MG of water is 0.10 ML.
200,000 MG water = 200 ML which equals 7 oz.

Grimpuppy ok I think I see the problem. 100g for 1 kg of batch 1kg= apx 2.22lbs. I am so sorry. I gave you the incorrect information. 100ml of water= 100grams by weight. It was totally an oversight on my part. When I do a batch of 1kg I add 100grams water by weight. I make no excuse. Just oversight. Here is one of typical recipes converted fm Chef’s 60lbs:

Grimpuppy can’t believe nobody beat me up over that error. I see your confusion. Sorry again!!🤭

Ok guys, I’m using a lem stuffer , 1/2 inch OD tube, 21 mm collagen casing, I want to go to 19mm collagen casing, will casing fit over tube or am I into having a fight with it, (I’m having a brain failure, been metric since 63 now in US , everything is being quoted in mm or inches, but no definitive US/IMPERIAL / METRIC OD Direct conversion, manufacturers should put both dimensions on sites for tubes). Any help appreciated.I’m not going out to buy a micrometer for 1 use

Google will convert millimeters and inches for you. There is a chart I posted earlier on page 1 of this thread listed casing and tube compatibility.
