Brilliant machine to do the ‘hollow types of pasta

I ummed and ahed about buying this. We make home made pasta quite often using the flat noodle type machine but I liked the idea of cooking with other shapes too. Anyway having bought it ,I found it works pretty well providing you take care with the consistency of the dough. I completely ignored the recipe as we already have one that works every time... I make mine like this...11.5 ounces of bread flour + 1 Egg processed to ball up and add a very little water drop by drop until it is soft and squidgy like play dough I mix it in the food processor.. That makes enough for 4. Home made pasta is more filling than ready made. If you make it too dry, it will be REALLY hard to crank through the machine (see below). The machine has Metal/plastic disks with the pasta shapes cut out like a play dough extruder but more sophisticated.. The set up is rather like a mincer ,it clamps to a table.but wouldnt clamp to our kitchen worksurface because of the need for the handle to have space to turn . . Put the disk in the end and fix it in place. Break off a sausage of dough about 3 inches long and as thick as your thumb. Feed it in and then turn the handle. It takes a while to go through all your dough .As each piece becomes shapes, cut them off and lay on clean tea towels to dry a little. When all is done, pop them in boiling water and cook. I think it takes about 20 minutes to get enough pasta shapes for 4 people There are two handle holes.. Only one is for the cutting action. Check with the leaflet before cranking to make sure you are using the right one. (The other is if you have a different attachment detailed in the leaflet) Cleaning is a little tedious because you need to carefully dismantle the cutting disk to get all the dough out. There will be about an inch left that wont crank through on the axle and some gets caught in the actual cutter disk.. A toothpick helps. Other shaped disks store inside the body of the machine which is useful. If you find the crank handle impossible or very stiff, save yourself some grief ,take your dough and stick it back in your food processor and add a few drops of water.Take a little bit and try it for 'feel'. You soon get to know how moist to make it. This was a good purchase for us because we already make pasta and so it adds to the arsenal of shapes we can produce. I think you do need patience though. If you are looking for instant effortless pasta shapes, this might not be as useful as it appears. My advice would be to try some home made pasta without a machine a few times and if you find that fun and fulfilling, then this will be quicker and easier and just as fun , else probably not.

This is a really solid machine, especially when you bear in mind its price. Very easy to use and to clean.

The plastic cog broke shortly after purchase. I got a replacement quickly enough,but tge aame fault occurred. All the internal parts are hard plastic. Nevertheless, not worth the money. There is no spare part replacement availablr for eithef of the two internal cogs, which are the parts most likely to break. The warranty by tge manudacturer is for two years. Unfortunately, I was two months out to make any claim. I had raeely used the machine, but when I dud I found it difficult to turn the handle, despite meticulously following instructions with regard to making tge dough gof the pasta. I would therefore advise against buying thus product. Plastic will always let you down at dome point. I was disappointed because I wrongly believed Marcato to be a reliable company. Their metal products are okay and can be relied upon.

What I expected, but great fun for my husband who makes good pasta and for us who eat it. Better than a fun factory.

The item was poorly packed which resulted in the wire on the cutter being snapped. Also the metal handle is slightly off making it jam against the locking ring nut. As such I have not used the item yet.

Good quality product delivered on time

This make pasta ... but you need to be quite strong to turn the lever. I also found that the pasta dough has to be very dry otherwise the pasta comes out like soft dough out the other side and does not hold its shape at all. This is also not easy to clean, best to leave the remaining dough to dry in there and pick it off over night. Pasta also came out very thick. I am going to keep trying to use this machine but so far I do not recommend.

Ürün güzel paketlenmiş 2-3 gün içerisinde geldi eksiksiz bir şekilde gönderen ve getiren firmaya teşekkürler. Kullanımı kolay ama gerçekten sert bir hamur yapmak gerekiyor. Buzdolabında söylendiği şekilde hamuru yarım saat bekletmek faydalı oldu kesme sırasında yamulup şekli bozuluyor yumuşaksa hamur. Tek sorun mutfak tezgahına bağlanamaması masaya bağlamak gerekiyor. Masanın üçgen kısmına oturtmak gerekiyor yoksa kolu döndürmek mümkün değil o nedenle mutfakta masanız yoksa benim gibi salonda kullanmak zorunda kalacaksınız. Direk makineden makarna çıktığı için ortalığı batırma gibi sorun olmadı. Onun dışında temizliği çok kolay söylendiği gibi bir kenarda kurumaya bıraktığınızda kolayca hamurlar üzerinden dökülüyor. Parçaları takıp çıkarmak hem pratik hem rahat. Henüz tek bir kalıbı kullandım. Kullanımı kolay ,yormuyor en önemliside ortalık batmıyor sırf bu yüzden bile alınabilir. Çok büyük bir bölümü plastik ama kaliteli olduğunu söyleyebilirim.Ben çok memnun kaldım tavsiye ederim.

Je suis totalement épatée par cette machine à pâtes Atlas Regina de Marcato ! Possédant déjà plusieurs produits de la marque, je savais que la qualité serait au rendez-vous, mais celle-ci dépasse mes attentes. ✔ Pourquoi je l’adore ? ✅ Enfin des macaronis maison ! 🎉 J’en rêvais depuis longtemps et cette machine me permet de les faire avec une facilité déconcertante. ✅ Hyper facile à utiliser : La prise en main est rapide et les instructions sont claires. ✅ Robuste et bien conçue : Fabriquée en acier chromé et plastique résistant aux chocs, elle est solide et durable. ✅ 5 matrices incluses : Idéal pour varier les formes de pâtes fraîches maison. ✅ Nettoyage simple : Un vrai plus comparé à d'autres machines du même type. 📌 En résumé : Un produit exceptionnel pour les amateurs de pâtes maison ! Je suis ravie de mon achat et je recommande sans hésitation ! 🍝✨

Es justo lo que quería para complementar la "Atlas" de Marcatto que ya tenía, y funciona estupendamente. También es fácil de limpiar, lo cual es otro punto a favor.

J'avais envie de savoir faire des pates de forme différente, pas uniquement des spaghetti. J'ai trouvé cette machine, et malgré le peu d'informations qu'il y a sur elle sur internet, j'ai décidé de l'essayer. J'ai jusqu'ici essayé 3 des 5 formes disponible, et je n'ai pas grand chose de négatif à dire dessus. Assez facile d'utilisation, bien qu'elle soit quand même un peu dure à tourner. Les pates gardent bien leur forme de sortie. La machine est très facile à nettoyer. Le seul point négatif est que, pour la fin de la pate, il reste, entre la piece qui pousse la pate et la pièce contenant la forme, 1-2cm de pate qu'il m'est impossible de faire sortir, mais c'est peut être une erreur d'utilisation de ma part.

Följde pastareceptet som följde med och maskinen gick sönder direkt. Blev för tungt för den att trycka ut degen. Jag gör pasta fler gånger i veckan för hand och ville ha den för att göra makaroner. Köp inte.
