Got a question about making sausages? Here's some frequently asked questions.
Spooled casings are far easier to use than unconverted product due to the fact that you just set up and go rather than hunting for ends and constantly untangling as you would if using un-spooled products
Sheep casings for the chipolata sausage: approx 12-16 to the lb
Hog casings for the thick sausage: approx 6-8 to the lb
Ex narrow hog for something in between: approx 10-12 to the lb
A 300g Gourmet mix is enough for 5lb meat.
1 bundle of sheep casings(80 yards) yields approx 40 lb of meat
1 bundle of hog casings(100 yards) yields approx 100 lb of meat
1 bundle ex narrow hog(80 yards) yields approx 60lb of meat
Just soak in water for a couple of hours and they will just slide off.
