How did the smoked sausage turn out Yam?



How about this biscuit? Oldmako might know this joint in Norfolk. Friend sent this to me and no I don't have Facebook. Or instagram.

Our sausage turned out great as always.
60lbs of deer/pork about 1 lb links
cold smoked in our smoke house while it snowed I think. Hard to keep track of the days things happen when old and retired.
also 10 lbs of summer sausage.

have 6 lbs of Canadian Bacon( pork loin) curing now in the fridge, will hot smoke next Sunday or later in week

that biscuit looks like it would be hard to eat and very messy to eat but may taste very good

what is the RPM of the 2hp motor?
do you need to spin the generator at any special speed?
might try changing pulleys again to get more torque , but may turn the unit too slow to get enough output

3450 on the data plate. 1200 RPM on the rotor.

Output is about 70 AC volts unloaded. About 80 DC volts unloaded. Enough to kill me I suspect if I don't keep my fingers away from the electrics.

1200 on rotor, does that mean you are turning it above the recommended RPM at the 2 to 1 pulley set up? 1725
what is your target RPM and Voltage you are shooting for?
or is it amps you are targeting?
Maybe a 3 to 1 would be better
