Luvele Ultimate Meat Grinder LPMG700 Questions & Answers
Verifiedcan i grind turkey frames
Hi Dennis, thanks for your question. Our Meat Grinders are for meat flesh only, so no bones or hard foods. Turkey frames will not be suitable. Thanks.
Thank you very much. The mincer is great. I would not like to damage it.
Has anyone finely minced squid ? If so are there any issues with the fine outer skin affecting the mincing efficiency ?
Hi Jan, thanks for your question, any boneless meat flesh and fish is ok to mice. We have not tried to mincing squid before, so not 100% sure what the outcome would be sorry.
Thanks a lot. How fine can your machine mince squid ?
Hi again, as mentioned we have not tried to mince squid before, but I do not think there would be any issue grinding it with our 3mm plate, this is our finest plate. One thought, you would have to make sure there are not hard parts still attached to the squid, and it is just the fleshy part that you are processing in the grinder.
Is this grinder suitable for preparing raw dog food including bone?
Hi there, thanks for your inquiry. Our grinders are for meat flesh only, so not bones or hard foods. I am actually not sure what machine would be capable of processing bones .
Can I use it to grind up chicken bones to feed our dogs
Thanks for your message, Ill be happy to help. No grinder we know of is suitable for processing bones. In fact, I am not sure what type of machine would do this, apart from an industrial one. So our grinder will not be suitable for this, it can process meat flesh only.
Thank you for your honest answer. I will try to post a copy of a grinder that does claim to deal with chicken bones , hopefully you can comment on it: external link
Hi there, it may work a few times in a row, but it will not last. This is not what meat grinders are designed for. You most likely will not get more than a few weeks or months of use from a grinder (any brand) before the gear box gives in if you use it like this.
Hi, Iyes, have read the fine print on the Luvele website...but, has any one tried putting through soft bones like chicken bones. I need to make dog food for my dog, due to allergies, and I am looking for a good quality mincer under $1,400 that can handle some carrots, sweet potatoes and and soft bones. Thank you
Hi there, thanks for your question. Our grinder, like all home style grinders are designed for meat flesh only, so not bones or hard foods at all. I am not sure if there is any machine out there that can process bones.
Thank you for your response. Yes there are machines out there, commercial grade meat mincers from around $1,400 upwards go through soft bones easily. Looks like I have to go down that route. No worries, Thanks
You're welcome. Yeah, there may be some commercial bone grinding machine out there, but I would assume these are rather specialized and expensive. All the best.
Where do people buy this from as the website seems to be non existent
Hi Darron, thanks for your message, what website are you trying? You can order from external link
Good morning. I need to grind (fine) chicken bones to add to cat food. Does this machine do this ? thank you
Hi there, thanks for your question. Meat Grinders are designed to process meat flesh only, so no bones or hard foods. Thanks.
Thank you
Hi,
Struggling to find the difference between the ultimate and the eclipse grinders.
Is it just: 1) Looks 2) Motor strength Or are there more differences? Which one is the better one and why? Thanks!
Hi Paddy, thanks for your question, Ill be happy to help. The three main differences are the bigger motor, the quick release head lock and the included 3mm and 12 mm cutting plates. I hope this helps : ))
Thanks => I bought the Ultimate and am really happy with it. BBQing my first batch of Boerewors tonight!
We luv Boerewors, yum! Enjoy : ))
Where can I purchase this meat mincer? Is this the best model for home use? I don't want to purchase something that is not of top quality that I will have to get rid of after a while. Thank you.
I haven’t had mine very long but I am very happy with it, I purchased it on line from Luvele
Hi Lorraine, thanks for your inquiry. Our Ultimate Meat grinder can be purchased from the following link; external link Yes, our Ultimate grinder is ideal for home use. Thanks.
Can this mincer mince other things like carrot, garlic etc?
Our Grinder is designed for meat flesh only, so no hard foods. You will need a food processor for vegetables.
Is this suitable for grinding bone ie chicken thighs with bone in?
Hi Sally, thanks for your question. Our grinders are designed for meat flesh only, so no bones or hard foods. You will need to look for a commercial model for this type of work. Thanks.
thanks very much:-)
Is this product suitable for grinding bone ie chicken thighs? thanks
Hi Sally I wouldn’t recommend grinding bone with this meat grinder. I don’t think any domestic grinders would be suitable. You might have to look at a small commercial one. Hope that helps
thanks very much for your reply and advice, much appreciated
Hi Sally, thanks for your question. Yes, Mudda is correct, our Meat Grinders are for home use only, and should not be used to grinder bones, or any other type of food, other than meat flesh. I hope this help : ))
Will this grinder grind chicken carcasses?
Pretty sure this meat grinder is for flesh meat only, not bones.
I probably wouldn’t use it for chicken carcasses.
Hi Alison, thanks for your question. Our Grinders are not suitable for bones of any type, they are designed to process meat flesh only. Thanks.
Hi, I just purchased your Luvele Eclipse Meat grinder through your website. I've only just found this page and to be honest I was purchasing your meat grinder to make homemade cat food with. I was hoping to be able to grind chicken bones (as I've seen other people doing it with similar meat grinders) but after reading the above posts I'm thinking that this product will not do the job and I am best to cancel my order. I thought chicken bones were soft enough for a meat grinder of this power. Can you please update me so I can cancel if necessary, Thanks so much.
Hi Emma. thanks for your message. Firstly, to organize a return you will need to email us at Luvele.com.au. Regarding grinding bones, no domestic style meat grinder should be use to grind bones. Meat grinder are designed for processing meat flesh only. Some people do use grinders for soft chicken bones, however this does put a lot of stress of the motor and gear box. While it can work, whats to stop a customer placing a slightly harder bone in the grinder and it getting caught and breaking the grinder. This is why we say that bones of any type should not be placed in the grinder. Thanks, Tim.
Hi Tim, The Eurochef looks exactly that same as the Luvele BUT there are a number of poor reviews on this site on the Eurochef (leaving black residue in the food) This is thought to be from the parts grinding together and leaving residue in the food....is the Eurochef the same as your brand and, if so, has the residue issue been fixed? https://www.productreview.com.au/listings/euro-chef-electric-meat-grinder
We have used the meat hrinder fairly regularly since our purchase last year. In that time we have never had a problem as described above, although i had experienced it with another brand. After sales service to answer questions and sort a problem of our own making (husband put a few parts in the dishwasher that it tells you expressly not to do). Amazing support. I would buy Luvele again for any kitchen equipment!
Hi Greg, thanks for your question. We have not had any customers with this issue. Cheers.
Hi, I'm looking to purchase a meat grinder/mince to do chicken and its soft bone! Would this be adequate to do the job ??
Cheers Jeff.
I think you will find this would be ideal. We use it for Pork and turkey and the occasional turkey bone slips through and we have had no problem. It is very robust and it there is a blockage, simply use the reverse feature to correct. Honestly far better than our more expensive small professional model.
I honestly wouldn’t put bone through. That’s not a reflection of the machine but my respect of it. I might let a bit of cartilage through.
Chicken bone is fairly soft Mat, I thought with it being a mincer/grinder it would manage
hi Jeff,
Thanks for your message,
Unfortunately this is not a commercial grinder, we can't recommend you but any bones or frozen goods through the grinder. It's only designed for meat with excess fat removed.
Regards Tim
I use mine to mince chicken carcass (frame) regularly for our small dog food, use the widest plate and pre chop (cleaver) the frames to fit the shute, just dont force the pieces through, let the mincer do the work, put it through a second time if you want superfine but not necessary, never clogged or had a problem, awesome mincer.
Hello, we live in Melbourne and want one of these as a Christmas gift. Can we get it before Christmas if we order it though you?
Hi there, Thanks for your question. If you place an order at luvele.com.au before 10am this morning and select express post, then we can do our very best to get your order to you by Monday the 24th. Unfortunately at this time of year there are no guarantees however.
Cheers,
Tim
Hi there, we have bought a grinder recently and after using it for a couple of times, it stopped working today. It actually turns on, but it stops working after just a few seconds. How can we fix it?
Hey Mason, Thanks for your message and support. I'll be happy to help with a fast solution :) It does seem odd as we haven't had this issue before. Can you please send us an email, preferably with a video of the issue, this will help us assess if its a fault faster than you having to send it back.
Our email is support@luvele.com
If it is a manufactures fault we will replace or refund you :)
Let me know via email so I can get you sorted ASAP.
Appreciate your patience in advance.
Kind Regards Tim
Will this mincer be able to process very fatty and sinewy cuts of beef?
Hey Billy, Thanks for your message, As our grinder is designed for home consumption we recommend that you remove all excess fat and sinew before using our grinder. It won't matter if there is some fat and sinew, however for best results it's better removed.
Thanks Tim
My partner has put the mincing parts in the dishwasher. When I found them the next day they were extremely tarnished and with a black coating, I was furious to say the least.
I scrubbed them up though haven't used them yet. Are you able to tell me what the long term affects of this are, how it will effect my mincing in the future and is there anything I should do before using it again?
Cheers
Emma
Sorry to hear.....the manufacturer's specification says specifically not to put any parts of the mincer into the dishwasher, so I have made sure I always soak them in soapy warm water (for about an hour) then hand wash them. I suggest you contact Luvelle direct and ask them for advice. Sorry I can't be more help.
Hi Emma, Yes Mia17 is right here, we do recommend washing with warm soapy water, as the hopper plate and head and grind screw components are not dishwasher friendly. Please email me at support@luvele.com, I will send you out a replacement.
Kind Regards Tim
Is this mincer suitable to grind chicken meat containing bones? (neck, thigh, wings?)
Sorry I can't help. I have never tried to mince bones. I would contact Luvele.
Hi Annakeee, Thanks for your message, Unfortunately we can't recommend using our Meat Grinder for any bones or frozen goods, the gearbox and motor aren't designed for this purpose. This is designed for household consumption, so you may be better off considering a commercial grinder that is built to take the task.
However If used correctly our meat grinders will last a very long time, I can't think of many if any warranty issues with this models motor and gearbox, it's a very robust meat grinder.
Thanks all the same
Tim
