Extrusion pasta makers perform very poorly! October 10, 2008 T. Sager (San Clemente, CA) I purchased this pasta maker as an acessory to my Cuisinart stand mixer. The mixer performs flawlessly, but sad to say the pasta maker does not. I have tried various recipes of egg pasta dough but anything then the lasagna noodles it is way to difficult to keep the pasta separate. Also extruded pasta in much denser then rolled pasta. This creates a much more chewy and dense pasta since the past is forced under pressure throught the plates. I will go back to the traditional Atlas pasta roller for much more easier and light pasta. Also it is very difficult to clean the area around the fixed metal bushing inside the feed tube without a special tool or long straight bristle brush.
I love it! October 2, 2007 S. Hayes (Bisbee Arizona) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I'm just sitting down to a bowl of linguine made with the cracked pepper recipe - tossed it with olive oil, garlic, and clams - and I am very, very happy. I only made a half recipe (which, by the way, works fine) and it really took no time at all. I find it much easier to use than the pasta maker attachment for my Cuisinart food processor. Does the pasta look like I bought it at the store? No. Do I care? No. I can't wait to try out all the other disks.
A bit of a disappointment August 27, 2007 MT (Michigan) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I was looking forward to this attachment making the process of pasta making a lot easier, rather than using the hand crank models. I am very disappointed in this attachment. I used the plain pasta recipe that came along with the attachment. You have to spend a lot of time breaking the dough into small enough pieces (the size of a grape) to fit into the attachment. You would hope that the small enough pieces would go thru easily, but they don't. You have to push them in somewhat. What is worse is that you can only put a couple pieces at a time. Too many and the attachment doesn't work well at all. Had to keep pulling the pasta out of it. The finished pasta pieces that came out of the attachment all stuck together. Lot of time pulling pasta apart. Cleanup is horrible. I spent more time trying to pick pasta out of every little nook and cranny than I did making the pasta. Actually ended up throwing the pasta out because it just looked awful. Going to try again but I have a feeling I will be pulling my old stainless steel hand crank model back out.
