Very nice.

I had original landjaeger molds from a sausage plant, but my wife said i tossed em  :-\

You have been a member since 06' and you have been withholding this kind of information from us. I think somekind of punishment is in order. I think if you sent me 2 lbs of landjaeger you could be forgiven.  ;D Welcome to the family. I can see already you will fit in just nicely around here. Cause I am going to start making sausage  instead of just thinking about it, and my fav is Landjaeger. I usually say if you have any questions just ask but I don't think that is neccesary. But we are always here if you have any. Do you mind sharing your recipe?

[Quarlow]

OK just read Rytek's book and it looks like you need an humidity dryer.So much for that idea.

I think NePas did some of that sausage a few moths back.  I think he even post photos as he made them.  Might want to give him a shout to see how he did it.

Cold smoking today. I use a old refrigerator for ferment and drying.

[SouthernSmoked]

Very nice.

Will be keeping a eye on this one!

[lumpy]

Keep us informed. I would like to see how the wood forms work.

[Tenpoint5]

That's quite the set up. Is that a little homebrew we see in the background?

[Brewoz]

Saturday night took them out of the molds and hung them to dry at 80 deg.



Sunday in the smoker with cold smoke for 4 hrs +.




Out of the smoke onto the table here's a pic that shows the flat form.



Now into the drying mode for 3 to 6 weeks



Refrigerator will maintain 60deg at about 70 - 80 RH.

[classicrockgriller]

That's just too nice.

3 to 6 weeks?  WOW!

[Brewoz]

The refrigerator is not just for sausage. I get thirsty too.

[punchlock]

Now wait just one minute here! You can't just post a photo like that and say "I get thirsty"!   ???;D

I think an explanation is in order, tell us about this rig you have here, we're all ears.

[lumpy]

Could you give us the dimensions of the wood forms.............please ;D
