I was thinking about this yesterday while cleaning the equipment in the picture above. One of the challenges many home processer face is just having enough work space to clean big items. I found a 2-tub sink with drain boards several years ago which helps a lot, but trying was clean can be tough without the space to do it properly. I also rigged up a short length of hose to the sink faucet so I can direct hot water to places that need rinsing or need a little pressure to flush debris off of equipment. Having that extra couple of feet of hose on the hot water line makes a huge difference during clean up. Many of you have probably already figured out that cleaning processing equipment requires some specialized tools like brushes to clean out grinder heads and plates, and stuffer funnels. I have accumulated most of the specialized brushes I need to get into the little cracks and crevices to get them cleaned correctly. If you are doing your wash down outdoors, a pressure washer is a great tool for getting things cleaned quickly, but it needs to be connected to hot water to really remove fat residue properly. For many of us, the local climate prevents us from cleaning outdoors for at least part of the year

I have a cheap electric pressure washer that was given to me and I run a hose from hot water in the garage and use like a low pressure steam cleaner. No soap no chemicals. Works great.

twilliams said in Hatch green chili bratwurst seasoning: processhead im with ya, i never tried them but a friend of mine has. He said it was not good at all I classify some of those formulations as novelty brats. Somebody makes a batch figuring some back yard griller will try them at least once to show to their buddies.
