Marcato Pasta device, Gold

The media could not be loaded.  This manual pasta maker is absolutely well-constructed. It’s elegant, cleans easily, and is truly one of those items that does one thing very very well.It’s pretty intuitive to roll pasta with this, but if you get stuck, there are YouTube tutorials with excellent tips and how-to’s.

Just to be clear. Review for Marcato Atlas Wellness 150. In gold tone (why not?!)I read a lot of reviews on Amazon and on line before I got this particular model. The reason I stated the model is, some reviews said the rollers peeled...stainless steel is not a coating, so I think it was a different brand and or model. (There is a brand that is just ATLAS and is not the same at all. Different company entirely! So. Be careful when buying.)I used immediately upon receipt. I was soooo excited.First, I have a kitchen aid mixer. I love it. BUT too heavy to pull out to make only two servings for dinner. Also, the rollers have to be changed out from the flat to a cutting roller. And the are also heavy... I have to stand up to use it because of the height. When making a lot of pasta this is a problem for me personally. But it works very well. BUT I though if I could get a MUCH smaller machine, I could sit down at a table and roll & cut smaller amounts.This is the perfect machine to do that.I have granite countertops and the whatsit would not fit..at all. So tried my table..perfect.Because it is low, you really have to " catch" the pasta as it comes out the back. Otherwise, it hits the base or whatever surface you are working on, and it sticks and you have to re-roll . But I caught on to that quickly. The handle is too long to sit in the middle of a counter or anywhere really. it had to be on the edge so the handle has space to turn. Not insurmountable, just took a few minutes to find the right corner location.I won't get the motor because I have the kitchen aid. At least I don't think I will.the Mercado Atlas is light weight, but sturdy..oh - yes the clamp vise grip....Is snug and secure when used properly. You can roll then cut, just by moving the handle! I love that! The handle attached kinda like a hand mixer, you have to put it in and turn a bit. Mine never fell out. One reviewer said theirs did.I used the recipe in the book and I rolled that amount though the machine. Only took a few minutes longer then the kitchen aid..since I was seated it was fine.

Got this to replace an older Italian made, hand-me-down pasta maker I had, that was rusting due to the previous owner washing it with water and soap. NEVER do that and always use plenty of flour when rolling your pasta dough and your machine will last many, many years. This one is lighter weight than my last one but that's due to the rollers being made from anodized aluminum, which is twice as hard as stainless steel, making the chance of metal particles less likely than with rollers made from stainless steel. As Marcato has patented this technology, there are no other pasta rollers that have this same feature. Made fettuccini with it today and it worked perfectly. If your pasta dough is pulling to one side, try these tips: make sure to let your dough rest for 30 mins at room temp before rolling it, longer if using regular American AP flour instead of 00 flour, this is vital as it lets the gluten relax, making the dough easier to work with. Make sure you knead your dough until it is smooth and silky, which can take as much as 10 full minutes, depending on your kneading technique. You can also try adding 1 TB olive oil to dough when mixing in eggs. Also make sure to sprinkle flour on rollers and on pasta throughout the pasta rolling process, whenever you start to feel the dough is dragging, even slightly on the rollers. (Retired chef here) So far I am very pleased with this pasta maker and see it lasting me many years.

The media could not be loaded.  This was my first time to use this pasta maker. I love it! The Atlas 150 is heavy duty, easy to use and cranks out the best pasta, spaghetti or pasta sheets for ravioli or lasagna. I’ve used it several time a since and have enjoyed every crank! I highly recommend!

Bom custo benefício

Muito fácil de usar. Ótimo acabamento. Eu nunca fiz macarrão caseiro antes e este foi o resultado da foto. Fiquei animada para comprar outros acessórios.

Muy recomendable para los que les gusta cosinar. La maquina hace lo que tiene que hacer, he hecho ravioles, spaghettis, lasaña. Ni un problema, es muy robusta, se nota la calidad de los materiales, creo que es de esos productos para toda la vida, solo hay que limpiarla en seco y listo (ahora uso un spray de aire comprimido y queda como nueva).

Non ha certo bisogno di recensioneProdotto perfetto per le mie esigenze

Ha llegado con una semana de antelación y muy bien protegida.La máquina un 10, funciona de maravilla.
