Took me 25 years

Before I finally broke the grinder attachment to my KitchenAid mixer. It started cracking the mixer end of it about 5 years ago. Grinding up a brisket yesterday, the housing cracked to the point of being unsanitary for further use.

For a $40 attachment, 25 years is pretty good durability. Worth every penny.

Just ordered a replacement model made of stainless. Not made by KitchenAid, but it should out last me and maybe my kids too.

Cast aluminum? Yep, it will take decades, but eventually it's going to give out. Sintered metal? an abomination. Kill it with a hammer. Cast steel is the only realistic way to live forever, but that cast aluminum is still a cadillac.

It's entirely stainless steel.
