Hey Everyone!!
I had a quick question on what type of industrial food mill you would recommend. (I have searched the forum but cannot find where this was discussed directly).
I am about to start cooking my hot sauce commercially in a certified kitchen that will be a shared space.
At home after I simmer my peppers, vinegar and garlic I run through a blender and then a small hand held food mill/sifter to strain out the excess pulp, seeds. etc. This usually yields 4-7 cups at a time which is great for test batching or making the many samples I have been giving out.
When I go to start making this I want to scale up to 10-15 gallons. I will be using an immersion blender to keep it in the same pot but now I need to run it through a industrial size sifter/food mill. All the food mills I have seen would take a while to run 10-15 gallons at a time. The one I did find that I thought would be perfect, the company no longer makes it.
Has anyone had any luck with finding one large enough to run 10-15 gallons through or have a better idea. I have most of the other process figured out with scaling up besides this.
I need one that is mobile enough to move in and out of a kitchen that will be a shared space with others. I also have a bad back so I need to avoid trying to lift 150 lb machine each time to make it mobile.
Thank you!
This is the one I thought would work really well but they stopped selling it*
