In 1782 he was commissioned to maintain the large organ in the Marienkirche in Lübeck. His son Johann Christoph Kaltschmidt (* 1748; † 1819) worked in Lübeck from around 1780, where he appears in the address book of 1798 as a brewer and organ builder in the Beckergrube , Marien-Magdalenen-Quartier 208. He also worked as a piano maker and piano tuner . His son Jacob Heinrich Kaltschmidt became a linguist in Leipzig.
