 Very sharp blades |

The unit is well constructed and with very sharp blades.
Don't drop it to the floor, because this will ruin the blades. |
Love the pasta bike

Recently bought the pasta bike because a friend had one and she raved about it. I've had mine only a short time and already used it twice and both times the bike did a beautiful job. First I made homemade noodles and then I made Graham Crackers. Both times the bike worked perfectly, easy to use and clean up was in seconds.
Highly recommend! |
I used it to cut out pretzel strips

| I tried all kinds of ways to roll the pencil size dough strings for pretzels. By hand, impossible, with a spaghetti tube on the meat grinder of my Kitchen Aid stand mixer, what a mess. Then it occurred to me to roll out a long strip of dough and use this from the drawer. If I'd run it over the dough twice, I could have created pencil sized strips, but I ran it once and made street vendor size pretzel strips. They were beautiful pretzels and so very easy. I didn't roll the crinkles out but could have easily. I just wanted to see what they did with the crinkles. Most faded away with the rise and during baking. I'm no longer dreading making pretzels again. |
The concept is great...

| When I ordered this I couldn't wait to get it. I had been making all of my pasta by rolling out my dough, rolling it up and cutting with a knife or a pizza cutter for years! I thought the pasta bike was going to be more versatile than it turned out to be. The concept is great but it, first of all, only cuts your dough with a crinkled edge. You can remove some of the disks and make lasagna noodles but you cannot push the disks closer together to make something like fettuccine. The slimmest noodles are about 3/4 of an inch wide. Probably the biggest trouble I have with the pasta bike is that when I press down and roll it across my dough one of the ends almost always comes apart and I have to stop midstream, lift up the cutter and fit the end back on, and then try to place it back exactly where I was on the dough when it came apart and continue rolling. For the price I guess I expected something much more functional. It seems a little junky to me but I will continue to use it while I look for something better. |
