760 watts per horsepower. I rather doubt that you could push meat fast enough to draw more than 3 or 4 hp.Edward Ronald wrote:How much electricity is required to run this machine?

I have a hard time to feed the grinder I bought, which is similar to this.

There are other things to consider beside horse power, like you can see here, on a short video.

Also some ideas adding motor to grinder, I think one hp. is plenty.
I think the one on top was made from available stock on hand.

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail.
To me it takes much longer to wash the grinder parts, then to grind the meat.
I also cut the meat much smaller then you can see on the video, because I mix it with the spices before grinding.
Some people grind twice, after that the meat needs very little mixing.
(Of course it depends on what kind of sausage one makes.)
I hate to use my mixer for the same reason.

Its actually 5.4 hp, 240 volt, 50 hz plugged into a 10 amp socket. The lights dim for a second when 1st switching on. The brand name is MBL inside a triangle. Its a bit of an overkill but after using the little mincer i have a welcome addition. Have 4 plates & knives which i have sharpened, but will eventually get a couple more
