Any recommendations here?
Farmlands have one that looks pretty decent for $600 ish.
Been told your normal briscoes type doesn’t handle venison too well?
Cheers

A mate of mine bought one of those from farmlands last week and reckons it goes bloody good.

Check out Zeropak, they are an advertiser on here.
Zeropak TC12 has been a fantastic machine for me.
1st mincer was a briscos type, wore out the plastic gears on that.
2nd was good. Internals made from chinesium*, eventually the worm spur broke.
3rd and current is TC12. Loads of torque and it's easy to clean. All the internal edges are deburred, small details like that made a difference!
*most prevalent metal know to man. An allow made from iron, aliminium, bits of scrap and possibly cats that fell into the casting.
You get what you pay for with mincers. Talk to Craig at zeropak he'll give you really good advice
I've got a zeropak TC8 and it's fantastic, my first mincer from briscoes needed class 5 earmuffs to use.
@zeropak I grabbed your pattie maker recently, works a bloody treat!!! Big grunty pattie at approx 170 grams. I just cut them in have to make two thinner Pattie’s for the kids. A lot cheaper than the normal pattie makers

Ive got a Kenwood Pro 2000 but the Farmlands one looks like a good option too.
The Kenwood is $100 cheaper than the Farmlands one.
The Kenwood is 850W compared to 750W.
We put heaps through the mincer, have just done 12kg in a few minutes. Have had it for about 10 years.
I bring venison home, blink twice and my wife has put it all through the mincer, vacuum packed it and given it to relatives, friends, neighbours, passing tradesman and vagrants. It's an endless cycle. Love it.
We've killed Kenwood mincer plus couple of other cheapies. One of these days will buy a zeropac machine.
Be careful when you start comparing power rating for the machines, there's a trap. There are 3 numbers that can be used. Peak power, input power and rated power. Rated power is the true power rating which measure continuous power at the mincing head. This will always be the lowest number of the 3 ratings not all companies use this rating, the machine can be made to look more powerful than it is by using one of the other ratings which will always be higher.
Part of 19.5 kg wife has just done. She is particular that it is pure meat so very little sinew or fat sneaks through. I do the first prep and then she picks over it. Now she is out delivering it to all and sundry. These deer were meant to go to a charity but wife intercepted them :)

I run the farmlands one , doing straight fat makes them work, I save my meat up so end up doing 80 odd kg at a time , weakest part of all I have looked at and touched is lack of cooling (have not seen a Hakka one tho) mods so far increase air slot size and fit a 100mm fan on underside wired up to run when it’s plugged in
Recently did 6hrs straight running and was still semi cool to the touch
