I tried the Gvode and this roller easily out performs it. I am absolutely happy with it.
Starting with the proper dough is a big part of success here. I followed Emeral’s recipient for semolina pasta dough; 2 1/2 cups (course) semolina flour, four large eggs, salt: mix, kneed, let rest wrapped for 1/2 hour .
It will be a bit stiff. Smash it out to 3/8 or 1/4 inches thick before running it through at the first setting. I run it through and double it up and run it again a few times until it’s a homogenous, neat sheet. Then I’ll run it through at each more narrow setting until I have the thickness I need for each type of pasta I’m making.
For tortellini or ravioli, I take it to the thinnest setting. You can see through it. It’s plenty strong too, as long as the starting dough is right. But beware, as each setting rolls it thinner, it gets longer. I cut the strip into manageable lengths as it grows.
The coarse semolina flour works well. My pasta has a rich yellow color as well as making smooth and strong sheet. The resulting pasta grips sauces a bit better.
Using a drier dough leaves almost NO mess in the machine. I have yet to have to clean it.
The roller has a built in plastic part that is designed to break if something like a todler’s hand get pulled into it. It snaps to prevent making a 30 foot-long toddler noodle. Kitchen aid doesn’t sell the replacement part but someone reverse engineered it and it’s available for sale online. It’s a bit costly, but better than having to just throw the roller away. If I have any complaint about this product at all, it would be that kitchen aid would make this failsafe feature more known in its literature, as well as making the replacement part more available at say, $5 per. At this point people are simply tossing the broken rollers out or buying new ones. Seems like and easy oversight to fix.
Anyway, a happy camper here. It’s absolutly easy to use ( if you have some experience rolling pasta to start with) and makes ravioli making fast ( if you have one of those pattern press thingys). It’s kinda fun, too. I hum Italian restaurant songs and play up the wee bit of Italian blood I have to the max... while drinking red wine. Thank you, ancestors, for all of this !
