Sausage stuffers... Water vs hydraulic

[lulabell]

Hello!
I am currently in the market for a new stuffer, with around a 50 lb. capacity.
I'm weighing the pros and cons of a hydraulic vs a water stuffer. I make a lot of course ground product and need to get through a few hundred pounds a day.
Any advice?
Thank you!!!

At a few hundred pounds a day, I think I'd go the full commercial route. A knee operated job for health and safety.

Something like the US equivalent of this:

FWIW....

Here's a 50 lb. hydraulic stuffer for about $2,000

Holy crap! I've been looking at a similar model, but it costs over three times that amount. Do you use one of these?

Change the name on the make and that's looks just like mine.

No problem at 600 lbs + per day (some days more depending on the batch) have been made using one of these

I payed $2000 for mine -- being in the right place at the right time

No, I don't use one like that.
I just happened to stumble upon it a few weeks ago.
