Beginners Equipment

[Rick]

Just wanted to mention to all the beginners out there, don't forget to check out any used restaurant equipment stores in your area.

Unfortunately with the economy the way it is, there are a lot of restaurants, meat markets, bakeries, etc. going out of business every day. Their loss could be your gain! Over the years I've been able to pick-up a nice Hobart 20 qt. mixer, Hobart bowl chopper and Globe meat slicer, all at very reasonable prices. Currently I'm looking at a Holding and Proofing Cabinet that provides both heat and humidity for my fermented sausage making as well as bread proofing. All commercial equipment that you as a home sausage maker or baker will never wear out!

You'll find that most of these equipment stores give pennies on the dollar for this equipment and you can get some good deals if you have cash in your pocket! Remember, cash is king always!
