TunaHead here again with a quick followup to my 4/26/25 comment. Johnny Paa at The Sausage Maker has reached out and informed me that these casings can be stuffed DRY and if rehydrated should not be soaked longer than 5 minutes. Thats great information.
Thanks Johnny!

I used the 43 mm casing in a salami project. I like this product and am impressed with how resistant the it is to rupture. (I stuffed the bajeebers out of it!) Pro tip: These natural dry casings do not like to sleeve nicely onto the stuffing horn after rehydration. Make your life easier by assembling the horn and it’s threaded base then sleeving the quantity of casing you need onto the horn before rehydrating. Just soak the whole horn assembly and casing together in warm water for 5 minutes and you are ready to stuff.

Used these casing for Pepperoni. I was very pleased with the end product. Keep in mind that you will only get approximately 15 lbs. per sleeve, not 26 lbs.
