@@DadGotThis Doing it the old fashioned way is great, and if this was strictly a how to make pasta dough video I could understand doing it by hand because not everybody has a stand mixer. But if they're following this video to make their dough they most likely purchased the pasta making attachment and have the attachment and the stand mixer on the counter and ready to roll. They paid between $300 and $400 or more for the mixer, they're going to want to get as much use out of the mixer as they can to justify the cost. Just a thought.
I had no issues. The top popped right off and if you flour the dough enough going through you get very little mess. I used the little brush that came with it and ran it under some cold water and scrubbed.
Enjoyed your review, that looks a super cool attachment you have there. I always think there's nothing quite like fresh pasta, I like making home made lasagne with mine but I roll it out by hand... Maybe it's time I invested in one....😊 Have a fun week and I'll catch you again very soon...👋
On all pasta machines no matter the type you have to pull the knob out to change the setting, and they feel wiggly. I just bought this roller/cutter combo but by a different name, but same thing. I'm interested in the spaghetti cutter. I want regular SPAGHETTI, not Angel Hair!
You will notice the instructions spell Attachment as Arrachment and the picture of the three kinds of pasta labels spaghetti as fettuccine and fettuccine as spaghetti.
@@patimeller7738 You don’t know if the machine works well until you buy it. Prior to that all you have to go on is what you see and what you see demonstrates bizarre lack of care. It’s not just spelling. They mislabel pasta. Pasta is relevant.
Did the central knob control get improved after your review? You sure convinced me to treat myself to one anyway (to make my own Chinese wonton skins too!)
I have this machine, having just purchased it. You did a great video but the my main issue is the clean up of the unit. No numbers to reach customer service and while I have emailed them two times to two different email accounts, no reply and no reply either on their Facebook page. Tough to love a product when you can't get through to customer service when there is an issue.
I had no issue cleaning. Popped the top off ran some water through it and scrubbed it with a brush as I turned the wheels by hand. What issue are you having?
@@DadGotThis I just got the KitchenAid professional 600 and I really can't afford the price of the KitchenAid one so you're telling me this will be okay then for 600
You don’t need to let it dry. The purpose of the rack is to store it while you finish all of it and get ready to boil it. It is so it doesn’t stick together.
I’m a little confused by your question. You attach the unit to the mixer. When you turn the mixer on it turns the rollers which you feed your dough into. The knob adjusts the width between the rollers for how thick you make the pasta.
@@DadGotThis I tried to attach again and this time all rollers were turning . at first only one roller turned. Evidently I did not attach securely the first time. Thank you for your info.
@@darkninja67 you are totally right! I will throw the mixer out. It’s not like I was making a RU-vid video to demonstrate techniques and have some fun. 🤔
Forte is not fortee. Everyone makes that mistake. It is pronounced the same as fort! If you pronounce it correctly everyone will say you are making a mistake.
