which Kenwood do you have? This one?

Frustrating that I don't have a large enough kitchen to hold all the kitchen appliances I want to have..

Not that one, ours is a Kenwood Chef Premier, similar price though. I bought the mincer and a small whizzer thing in a sale. Top tip is to run a slice of bread through it when you're done and it does half the cleaning for you!

If you want seriously good mince then get a metal body one and put it in the freezer before mincing and keep the meat as cold as possible without actually freezing it.
The idea is that the cold metal combined with cold meat helps to keep the fat solid while mincing. If either are too warm the mincer will 'smear' the fat in the process.
I've got the attachment for our Kenwood and it's pretty darn good, nearly everything's metal and fairly easy to clean, gets used for grinding pork for polpette and chicken/prawns for wontons. I was worried the food mixer wouldn't have the torque but it makes mince meat of it.
