KitchenAid Food Tray for Grinder & Strainer — Large 7.5x12.5" Dishwasher-Safe Hopper

The KitchenAid KSMFT Large Food Tray expands your stand mixer into a high-capacity feed hopper for the KitchenAid Food Grinder and Fruit & Vegetable Strainer attachments.

If you already use KitchenAid attachments to grind, stuff sausages, or strain fruits and vegetables, this large plastic Food Tray helps you move bigger volumes through the attachment without constant refilling. It snaps onto the Food Grinder (model KSMFGA) and works with the Sausage Stuffer Kit and Fruit & Vegetable Strainer, creating a steadier, cleaner workflow while sitting on your stand mixer. The tray is dishwasher-safe on the top rack and sized to hold larger batches so you can process more in fewer passes.

How does the Food Tray speed up batch processing?

The tray creates a larger collection area to hold ingredients before they enter the grinder or strainer, reducing interruptions caused by frequent reloading. It channels food directly into the attachment feed tube and helps keep your countertop tidy during continuous use.

• 7.5" x 12.5" molded plastic tray holds bigger ingredient volumes.
• Fits the Feed Tube of Food Grinder model KSMFGA for stable feeding.
• Reduces stoppages so you can grind or strain longer without pausing.

Will this tray fit my existing KitchenAid attachments and mixer?

The KSMFT is designed specifically for compatibility with the KitchenAid Food Grinder model KSMFGA, the Sausage Stuffer Kit, and the Fruit & Vegetable Strainer when those attachments are used on a KitchenAid stand mixer. It is not compatible with the discontinued Food Grinder model FGA. Stand mixer and grinder/strainer attachments are sold separately.

• Compatible with Food Grinder KSMFGA (required, sold separately).
• Works with Sausage Stuffer Kit and Fruit & Vegetable Strainer attachments.
• Not compatible with discontinued grinder model FGA; mixer not included.

How easy is the tray to clean and store?

The Food Tray is constructed of durable plastic and is top-rack dishwasher safe, making cleanup quick after tasks like grinding meat or processing fruit. Its flat profile and manageable size make it simple to store alongside other mixer accessories when not in use.

• Top-rack dishwasher safe for fast, hygienic cleaning.
• Compact 7.5" x 12.5" footprint for convenient storage.
• Durable plastic resists stains and food odors with normal care.

What tasks does the tray make easier in the kitchen?

Use the tray whenever you need continuous feeding into an attachment—grinding large batches of meat, pushing multiple vegetables through the strainer, or filling sausage casings more efficiently. It helps maintain a steady flow for recipes that require processed ingredients at scale.

• Large-batch meat grinding for burgers, meatloaf, or meat mixes.
• Faster fruit and vegetable straining for sauces, purees, and preserves.
• Simplified sausage stuffing by holding and guiding product for the stuffer kit.

Who is this for: The KitchenAid KSMFT Large Food Tray is for home cooks, hobby butchers, and small-batch preserve makers who already own (or plan to buy) the KitchenAid Food Grinder model KSMFGA and want to speed up processing while reducing mess. It’s ideal if you often prepare large quantities, want to streamline attachment use on your stand mixer, and prefer dishwasher-safe, easy-to-store accessories.
