Raw Worm Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I'm make a mixer for my presto pot. The question I have is, what is the best RPM for the motor? Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kajan Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 You want the RPM's to be between 35 and 50. Make sure it has torque' suggested in previous thread. I think its 21" lbs. You need a 4 blade paddle, is much better than 2 blade. 3/8" nipple and open valve. If you need any more help feel free to Email me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone2long Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I used a rotisserie motor and works great! Plenty of torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rednekf150 Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Very nice!!! Do you ever have any issues with burning?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBK Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I used a 12vDC motor, I think it is 25 rpm and 21# torque. It works great. I used bears paddles (you can buy them off bears baits site). I have seen the 2 blade ones and they do not mix the plastic half as well as bears 4 blade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
