| 142 of 152 people found the following review helpful  What a great attachment!!, By This review is from: KitchenAid KPEXTA Stand-Mixer Pasta-Extruder Attachment (Kitchen) I got the opportunity to test this attachment out for KitchenAid and I learned a lot from the experience. This attachment makes pasta making relatively easy and is well built, (made in Italy). I found making pasta to be, while challenging at first, pretty straightforward. My first impression when I received the attachment how well built it is. The pasta press, (another name for this attachment), has six different plates for making pasta. (The plates are, Spaghetti, Rigatoni, Fusilli, Bucatini and two different sizes of Macaroni). The plates come apart for cleaning, (something I learned when cleaning it after one of my times making pasta). There is also a cleaning brush, multi-tool for pushing and taking apart the pasta press at the bottom, a case for the plates (stores the other five plates, while one plate is installed in the pasta press), and the instructions.The Pasta Press is made of heavy duty plastic and comes apart easily for cleaning (except when you have...

I absolutely love this attachment.I make pasta at least once a week now, and it couldn't be easier. The attachment came with good recipes that are easy to follow for great pasta. I have the pasta roller and cutter attachments that I use for rolling wide noodles, but for regular spaghetti or any other shape the plates create- this is incredibly easy. The storage of the plates in the lid looks nice and is VERY convenient. The design produces VERY little waste. All in all probably my favorite attachment so far! Very well done, KA!! 57 of 61 people found the following review helpful Weigh the Flour & Measure the Eggs, By This review is from: KitchenAid KPEXTA Stand-Mixer Pasta-Extruder Attachment (Kitchen) Be warned: your first few attempts won't be so great.According to the recipe, you should have fresh pasta extruded in the time it takes to boil water. Last night, after 5 previous attempts, I made my first successful batch ready in time for the boiling water. The other batches were fine, but last night was the first time the process went quickly. Here's my advice: Weigh your flour and carefully measure your eggs. 1 cup sifted flour weighs 112 grams. The eggs need to measure 7/8 cup. Once I had those exact proportions, the process went fantastic. I love this attachment. It requires less time and kneading than roller pasta. Plus, it's as fun as playing with play dough. Remember it's a science and an art. It's a science because you MUST use exact measurements. It's an art because it takes several tries before you're pro. The downside for me is that the pasta shapes get large and bloated after boiling. I want my pasta shapes to stay small. But... Read more |
