tomato mill accessory for meat grinder?
We have a good meat grinder, a German made Krefft kompaktwolf r70, that rips through deer meat as fast as we can feed it. Rather than buy another yet another one-trick-pony, I'm trying find a tomato mill that is designed to fit on this grinder. Anyone have any idea where to look? Everything I see on web searches is in German.
We also have some less capable, smaller meat grinders that would surely give enough torque to crush tomatoes, but I can't think of the names right now. Royale, something like that? Regal? There are loud and driven with just a small slot key I believe. The Kreft has about a 5/8" hex drive. I know there are a lot of stand alone tomato mills out there. I don't want to spend $300 and have to make room to store it somewhere, but I wouldn't mind spending $100 for a well made accessory to hook it up to our Kreft grinder. Between the Kreft and a Hobart slicer and a pressure canner, extra bread machine and crock pots, I'm really not looking for another stand-alone appliance. I'd love to find something made for my grinder, even A grinder, but may end up with a victorio hand crank and some creative welding? Thanks for any help. |
