Sausage Fillers

Commercial sausage fillers, or sausage stuffers, are special tools for filling casings with tasty meat mixtures to make sausages. You can find manual and motorised versions to match your production needs. These filters are perfect for butcher shops, delis, and places that make lots of sausages.

There are manual, electric, hydraulic and vacuum sausage fillers available in the market.

Sausages are one of the most versatile foods out there, and there are countless ingredients you can use to make them. From classic meat fillings like pork, beef, and chicken to more unique options like lamb, venison, and even seafood, the possibilities are endless. You can also add a variety of spices, herbs, and other seasonings to create different flavour profiles. But sausages aren't just limited to meat fillings – you can also add vegetables, grains, and cheeses to create unique sausage varieties. Some popular ingredients to include in sausages are onions, peppers, mushrooms, rice, quinoa, and feta cheese.

If you're in the market for a commercial sausage stuffer, there are several factors to consider before making your purchase. Here are some important things to keep in mind:

• Capacity: The capacity of your stuffer is super important because it affects how much meat you can make in a day. At Restaurant Equipment Online, we get that choosing the right size is key to maxing out your production. Whether you're a small-scale producer or a busy kitchen, we've got sausage fillers for you.
  Our Tre Spade sausage fillers, in 5-litre and 7-litre sizes, are great for small and mid-scale operations. But don't let their size fool you; these little machines make filling casings a breeze! They're built to last and give you a lot of bang for your buck. With our sausage fillers, you can whip up tasty sausages and keep your customers happy.

• Motorised vs. Manual sausage filler: Manual sausage fillers are cheaper and more portable than motorised ones. They're perfect for smaller places since they don't need a power source and are easy to use. But they take more work to run and might not be the best for making lots of sausages. Motorised fillers are pricier and bigger, but they're also more efficient and user-friendly. They're a great fit for bigger operations that need to produce lots of sausages quickly and consistently. Plus, they often come with cool extras like automatic stop/start and variable speed controls.

• Stuffing tube size: The tube size matters because it determines your sausage diameter. So it's key to pick the right size for the thickness you want. We've got a bunch of sausage stuffers with different tube sizes. They come with funnels from 10mm to 40mm in diameter, so you can make all kinds of sausage sizes. Whether you're making tiny breakfast sausages or big meaty links, we've got the perfect stuffer for you.

• Ease of cleaning: Keeping your sausage stuffer clean is crucial for top-notch sausages. That's why we offer Tre Spade fillers with easy-to-clean features so your stuffer stays in tip-top shape. They have stainless steel cylinders, carbon steel gear racks, and aluminium gear blocks with self-lubricating bushes for durability and easy maintenance.
  Plus, our sausage fillers have a silicon gasket for a tight seal, and the detachable cylinder makes cleaning simple. And not to mention, they're dishwasher-safe! Just pop the removable parts in the dishwasher, and you're good to go.

Yes, sausage fillers come with different sized nozzles to make different sized sausages.

Yes, sausage fillers can also handle collagen and fibrous casings.

Yes! Some commercial sausage fillers have a grinding function, letting you grind and stuff sausage simultaneously. These combo grinder/stuffers grind meat and ingredients before pushing them through the stuffing tube. They're great for businesses that need lots of sausages and want to save time and labour.

If you make sausages regularly, a commercial sausage stuffer is a smart investment. It's more efficient and hygienic, and you have more control over ingredients and quality. You can find commercial sausage stuffers in various sizes and capacities, from small countertop models to bigger freestanding ones.

These filters are usually made with stainless steel, carbon steel, and aluminium. The cylinder and stuffing tubes are stainless steel, which makes them durable and easy to clean. Carbon steel is used for gears and other moving parts to handle the pressure from the meat mixture. The gear block is aluminium, which helps avoid overheating during long use.

Sausage fillers can be easily disassembled and cleaned with warm water and mild soap.

It's simple to use a commercial sausage filler. First, get your sausage casings and minced meat mixture ready. Pick the right stuffing tube size and attach it to the filler's cylinder. Load the meat mixture into the cylinder and start cranking or turning on the motor. The meat gets pushed through the tube, filling the casing and making sausages. When you're done, twist or tie off the ends to make individual sausages.

Sausage fillers work by using a piston or a vacuum system that pushes the meat through a nozzle into the sausage casing.

Yes, it is safe to use a sausage filler at home as long as you follow the instructions and safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer.
