Bought a mincer and only used it twice and it fused the full house. Wanted it to make sausages, burgers etc without additives. Was wondering if anyone had bought one that had lasted. Know Kenwood gets a good name but they are really quite expensive and wouldn't use any it for anything else as don't bake.

Has anyone used a manual one?

Thanks

  • I use a manual mincer, it's a Prestige one and it cost me £3 from a charity shop. I see the same one at charity shops reasonably frequently (there are some on Ebay but they are a bit dearer). It's pretty good, you do need to use a little bit of welly and it's not the friendliest appliance in terms of cleaning, but it's worth it because I know exactly what my mince is made of!

    I have a moulinex ginette, I doubt you would find one now though as mine was bought in 1981 as a first wedding aniversary pressy. Mine is still working fine. They still make something very similar.

    i dont have a mincer so I use a food processor to chop very fine, not the same but my burgers always turn out ok.

    Think the texture is different but still dont have additives etc which was my main aim.

    I have been looking out for one in the charity shops but havent come across one yet
