I replaced the Kitchenaid with the OMCAN .45 hp tomato squeezer.

If I had it to do again I would probably go one size down to the .25 HP machine.

The .45 HP machine is a little large and a bit heavy and has no splatter shield. I do love it. Maybe I need both!! Tomatoes are squeezed as fast as I can feed them. Also there is less prep because the throat is a lot larger than the Kitchenaid. It's at least five times faster than the Kitchenaid.
I bought the All American 30 qrt canner (14 qrts at a time)to keep up with it.
I also figured out that I can pass the sauce through a sieve after straining it in the machine. This significantly reduces the time boiling off the water.
Hopefully all the above will reduce tomato processing time by well more than half and save my marriage.
The first plants went into the garden today.
