Cabelas sells an attachment for their meat grinders that is made out of porcelain covered cast iron I think, it's a very nice unit,and makes great applesauce as well, 2 weeks ago we got together with some friends and made and canned over a thousand quarts of applesauce and pressed about 300 gal of cider. We used the Cabelas units for the sauce,and my bladder press for the cider.

I'm not saying you are wrong but if you do you might consider not eating out in restaurants because many of them use aluminum kettles.
