Goldie09 Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Does anyone know where I can get a small scale sinking crayfish pellet making machine? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsaanAussie Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 All you need is a hand cranked meat grinder/mincer. Get one that you can change the plates for various size apertures. Buy a metal unit not a cheap plastic bodied thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldie09 Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 Hi, thanks for the reply. In this way I am wondering how to get a regular cut length as I plan to market to ornamental crayfish pellets and not farmed Yabbies or red clawed. We have a small crayfish farm and thought as food as a sideline as well as own use. Just researching the possibilities. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsaanAussie Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Attach a "wiper blade" to the shaft of the mincer so that you can adjust the distance to the extrusion plate in the mincer. The plate is stationary and the shaft rotates with the blade cutting the pellets to length. But, you should have a search of the web for how people do this. Many fish feed makers extrude as "wet noodles" which they then dry and cut up later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
