Re: Very Old Farmers' Bulletins call for Saltpeter, can I use it?
redzed The only real curing salt that I can buy is Instacure or similar online through Amazon or, like I did once, I had a nephew in the US buy me some from Sausagemaker.com and bring it with him. Potassium Nitrate is available in chemical stores but it is difficult to buy easily, with all the terro...

Very Old Farmers' Bulletins call for Saltpeter, can I use it?
My father bequeathed these to me long ago. As a Rotarian he had a fellow Rotarian in the US mail him these bulletins in the early 60s They all mention saltpeter as the curing salt About 2 oz for 100 lbs of meat. Is it ok to use saltpeter once in a way for the long dry cure that I want to do as given...

FL-C culture was not available easily in India so I too tried natural sources , but not butter milk, and definitely not the store bought buttermilk. I had Thermophilic and Mesophilic bacteria that I use for cheese making. Not knowing which of the two works , I decided to add both. But since both cul...

Spring loaded Ham Press
I found this ham press to be a very simple affair.
Very light weight and can be placed vertically or horizontally for cooking.
I have just received it. But it requires the meat to be in steamer bags and I have ordered them too.

Nylon Casing
I saw this casing on Ali Express and bought a 100 meter roll. It is a 5 layer nylon material and cannot be smoked. But I read that a single layer casing can be smoked. Its extremely strong and virtually indestructible. But its difficult to link. It came with three rolls of cotton thread and a nozzle...

Coincidentally, I received the dry 23mm casings that I had ordered through AliExpress . Last year I ordered the supplier's minimum order quantity of 20 meters. He supplies them in 2 meter lengths. I found them to be good, a great value for the money, though some of them did have a few holes. The nex...

redzed, I used 2.5gms of Cure #1 per kg of meat. Maybe a couple decimal on the higher side (2.8). Maybe the pinkness could be because these were still moist just out of their (steel) casings after about 30 minutes of steam at 70C. Yes, using cellulose or collagen casings would be the easier way out,...

I have not given up on this folks. I think I have found the reason for those air pockets. I was using 3/4" steel tubes that were pushed into the nozzle, which does not leave space for the air to escape. After consuming a lot of sausages in the process I realized the ideal air release would be the st...

I do have an idea to try out. ....Those do seem excesive That could be my fault. The contents was still coming out t...

Not yet. but I think i'll order a hank of the 22-24mm. Trying to work with thinner sheep casings is absolute madness. 22-24 will be good for kabanosy and wieners. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wholesale-Commercial-use-90-meters-length-diameter-22-24mm-sheep-sausage-casing-sheep-cover-sheep-skin/3...
