Can't give you a per hour estimate but I ground 5 lbs. in about 12 minutes. Using a course grind but grinding the meat a second time. HTH.

i see no real differance but beware that they are not the power they claim. but if your just doing small batches it is ok for a entry level sausage maker. but if you make 20 to 50 pounds at a time like we do then you really want to step it up to a more heavy duty grinder. our cabellas 1 hp grinder will do 600 lbs a hour and not slow down. hope this helps paul

at least an hour -- that's all i've tried. i must admit i use it for an unintended purpose: grinding foam rubber for model railroad scenery purposes in lieu of buying commercial product. i just got it & am still learning how full to fill, what setting, how long, etc. it seems a good machine, and ought to be quite satisfactory for its intended use. ajs

The only thing I could find in the manual, or on the box, is "Volts: 120 A.C. Only. Hertz: 60". Nothing about wattage. I did go back & read older questions. Someone called KitchenAid & found out it was 145 watts.

We use ours with a frech press and only grind for 6 seconds. It isn't completely unifrorm, but it works for an inexpensive grinder.

This is built at the level of your Kitchenaid mixer--a substantial piece of equipment, well designed and rugged, that will last for years. I'm very happy with it. No, there is no residue.I didn't think that thin plastic was appropriate in a device that experiences the forces involved in grinding, and did not think that a plastic grinder would be durable. I'm very pleased with the choice that I made.

I don't have the 600 professional, but all the Kitchen Aid mixers are the same on the ends. That's where this attaches to and Kitchen Aid made all the ends the same size so extra attachments could be used on any mixer. Hope this was helpful. Also, I wouldn't be without this grinder.

60 and 120...........I returned the one I purchased because I was not able to true up each of the grinding wheels. The bearings were also extremely loud which leads me top believe they would not last very long. I have purchased 2 Rikon 80-805 Slow Speed Grinders and have not had any issues for over 2 years.

Jennifer. I worked for a Hobart/Kitchenaide repair shop for over 8 years. All Kitchenaide accessories will work on all modern Kitchenaide mixers. My grinder has been used on 3 different models of mixers and each has performed well. I have used my grinder to make flours and meals of corn, wheat, buck wheat, rye, rice, spelt, millet, amaranth, black beans, almonds, peanuts and sorghum. I ground 40 pounds (about 3/4 bushel) of corn this past week with the grinder attached to a model KP216M1 (600 Professional). Your Accolade 400 is a medium powered mixer and will easily handle this grinder. Please remember not run the mixer with grinder for longer than 20 minutes without giving the motor a rest to cool down. Jennifer. I worked for a Hobart/Kitchenaide repair shop for over 8 years.

I'm not sure. Looking back, I actually spent $20.00 and it burned up almost immediately. I think it wouldn't grind over 1/2-3/4 cup at a time.

I cut the head off a bold that replaces the one holding the handle on. I put 2 nuts on it together so it can not over tighten, took the handle off and just use the headless bolt with my cordless drill (18V DeWalt in low gear). I grind 3 cups of wheat into 4 cups of flour in less than 10 minutes.

120 volts and just like the KitchenAid site, the owner's manual is silent on amperage. But knowing that American kitchen counter accessory outlets often are not rated for more than 15 amps total at the receptacle, we can guess it draws 15 amps or less. Using P=IV, and that most counter-top ovens max out at no more than 1,800 watts, we again arrive at 15 amps, max. I could look at the back of our 3-time replaced KitchenAid oven (same model) but we finally gave up on it and KitchenAid. It is a piece of junk, as is KitchenAid customer service. Electrical burning smell came from the function knob that finally failed completely. Thankfully we bought it at Macy's and they credited the full purchase price toward a beautiful Breville oven! We love that Breville! We used to have 100% KitchenAid appliances in our home and every single one of them has had premature problems - we're now down to one.

Batteries Plus can make one for you. I had it done, higher mAH rating. Take the whole mixer to Batteries Plus. I think the cost was around $20.

No, to operate this grinder you need an air compressor and is too big for that job I better recommend a Dremel tool it's very handy and it works with 120 Volts like any appliance in you're house.

I don't know but how much would you pay me for my entire machine??? Mine did not grind small enough for me and no longer want it! Are you interested?

I called KitchenAid (1-800-541-6390) the 150 model is a tilt head mixer. The dough hook pictured is NOT for this model. They recommended K45DH, which they sell for $14.99. Also, the burnished aluminum beaters/dough hooks tend to discolor slightly when washed in the dishwasher.

I don't know about your machine that does work very well with my KitchenAid attachments
