cant do a couple batches? Dude cant be making salsa every day.

The only benefit a blendtec or Vitamix would have over your usual residential blender is the motor power and reliability. Capacity difference is negligible.

Neither will hold 40 lbs of peppers at one time.

Is he using a commercial blender or a home blender? A blentec or vitamix should hold up fairly well.

Lmao. Feel free to take this knowledge off my hands. I could use the memory space for other things.

Damn. I had them on craigslist for months and did not receive a single call and gave one of them away.

That is surprising. When restaurants close down, and the owners try to unload everything, or when the auction houses come in, those mixers are one of the first things to go.

The old Hobarts are gear driven. The new ones are variable speed, and use a series of rubber bands for the drive. A lot of pizza places that use a thicker, more dense dough hate the new Hobarts because their dough product is too thick, and it will snap the mixing shaft right off if they aren't paying attention. The manufacturer I represent is also variable speed/band driven, but we make a model specific for pizza with a higher HP motor and a larger mixing shaft, that's not prone to snapping with dense product. Hobart still hasn't figured that out, or hasn't done it well enough, so there is still a massive market for the old gear driven mixers.

You could get a pretty decent offer out of it I'm sure. There is a guy locally that does nothing but rebuild those old Hobarts, and I think he sells them for $5000 or so for the 60 quart models.

Then I guess that I will hang onto it and make a fucking machine out of it like I originally planned.

choo choo!!!

That roll around Sammic unit costs about $9000. It's actually a damn good price, if you've got the need for something like that.

[svauto-erotic855]

Of course you do...

It was left in a storage unit after the tenant moved out. She owned a bakery on Lovers Ln in UP that closed a few years ago; Ashton or Anstons bakery I believe was the name. There were two of them and I gave one away.

Chris, you can show him this too. This is a 8.5 quart table top unit. Works like a champ, powerful, but the bowl won't hold close to his amount. It will do more than his residential blenders are though, with a longer life, and more safely.

There are also these. This may be the route he wants to go due to cost, and not yet knowing whether he has a viable business on his hands or not. Just keep in mind, this is labor intensive. All manual operation.
