The Buffalo CH133 is a real grafter. In a commercial setting, you need equipment that just works, and  this mincer delivers on that promise. It’s got the power for demanding tasks but remains straightforward to operate and  clean.

Oliver Bennett – Catering Equipment View Profile →

  • Best Feature: The motor is surprisingly quiet for its power, a real plus in a noisy kitchen.
  • Consideration: It's quite heavy, so it is best suited for a fixed spot on your worktop.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Bridge Inn in Ripon, North Yorkshire, decided to upgrade their kitchen to start making their own gourmet burgers and  sausages in-house, moving away from pre-packaged products to improve quality and  flavour.

"The Buffalo mincer has been a superb addition. It’s reliable, fast, and  gives us the exact consistency we want for our burgers. Our customers have noticed the difference, and  it has simplified our morning prep routine significantly."

Michael Davies – Head Chef

The move allowed them to increase their gross profit on their best-selling burger by 15% and  launch a popular 'Sausage of the Week' special.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Place the unit on a flat, stable, and  non-slip surface near a power socket.
  • Before first use, wash all removable parts (pan, head, worm, blade, plates) in warm, soapy water.
  • Assemble the mincer head correctly, ensuring the blade is fitted with the flat edge facing outwards towards the plate.
  • Secure the head assembly tightly to the motor unit before plugging it in.

Keeping It Going

  • Always disconnect the mincer from the mains power before cleaning or performing maintenance.
  • Disassemble and  hand-wash all parts immediately after each use to ensure maximum hygiene.
  • Ensure all components are thoroughly dry before reassembling to prevent corrosion.
  • Periodically check the cutting blade for sharpness; a sharp blade produces a cleaner cut and  puts less strain on the motor.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Meat Mincer

Not sure what to look for? Here are a few key things to consider when picking the perfect meat mincer for your business.

Output Capacity (kg/hr)

Be realistic about your needs. Match the machine's output to your busiest service to avoid bottlenecks during prep time.

Mincer Head Size (e.g., #12, #22)

The size number refers to the diameter of the cutting plates. A size 12 is a fantastic all-rounder for most restaurants, pubs, and  delis.

Motor Power & Durability

A powerful, heavy-duty motor like the one in this Buffalo meat mincer size 12 will handle frequent use and  tougher cuts without overheating.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for models that are simple to take apart. Removable stainless steel parts make achieving top hygiene standards much easier.

Helpful Features

Don't underestimate features like a reverse gear for clearing jams or included accessories like sausage stuffers, which add huge value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does 'Size 12' mean for a meat mincer?

A: It's an industry-standard size for the grinding head and  plates. It's a versatile size, perfect for most commercial kitchens that aren't operating on a huge industrial scale.

Q: Can this mincer grind small bones, like chicken carcasses?

A: No, this unit is designed for boneless meat only. Attempting to grind bones will likely damage the blade, plate, and  motor.

Q: How does the reverse function actually work?

A: It simply reverses the direction of the internal screw (the worm), which pushes any clogged meat or sinew back up the feed tube, clearing the blockage without you having to take it apart.

Q: Is the 130kg/hr output realistic?

A: Yes, this is the maximum output under ideal conditions. Your actual throughput will depend on the type of meat and  the fat content, but it's built to handle high volumes efficiently.

Q: Why are there two different-sized plates included?

A: They offer different textures. The 6mm plate gives a finer mince, great for pâtés or smooth fillings, while the 8mm plate gives a coarser, chunkier texture, perfect for rustic burgers or bolognese.

Q: Are the grinding parts dishwasher safe?

A: To ensure longevity and  prevent any potential corrosion, we strongly recommend hand-washing all the removable stainless steel and  aluminium components.

Q: Can I mince frozen meat?

A: It's best to use well-chilled or partially frozen meat for the cleanest cut. Mincing fully frozen, hard blocks of meat can put excessive strain on the motor and  components.

Q: How do I assemble it to make sausages?

A: You assemble it as normal but replace the grinding plate and  blade with the sausage stuffing nozzle. It's a quick and  simple swap.

Why the Reverse Function is a Kitchen Lifesaver

Ever had a machine jam right in the middle of a big job? It’s a frustrating and  time-consuming problem. When mincing meat, tough sinew or gristle can occasionally wrap around the grinding worm, causing a blockage and  bringing everything to a halt. Without a reverse function, your only option is to turn everything off, unplug, and  painstakingly dismantle the entire head assembly to clear it out by hand.

The reverse function on the Buffalo CH133 mincer completely eliminates this hassle. Think of it like a get-out-of-jail-free card for your mincer. With a simple press of a button, the motor spins the worm in the opposite direction, untangling the blockage and  pushing it back out of the feed tube. It means you can clear a jam in seconds, not minutes, and  get straight back to work with minimal disruption.
