have had the most efficient results by using a garbage disposal to grind apples w/o any liquid to aid grinding; but one needs a big motor. With a medium motor it has to be fed slowly so as not to overheat.

The problem with standard garbage disposals is the motor engineering. Because garbage disposing in the kitchen usually takes no more than a few seconds the motors are not engineered for continuous use. Therefore they overheat quickly. Are there any commercial disposals designed for continuous operation?
