Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of KitchenAid SNPA Pasta Maker Plates for Food Grinder Attachment for Stand Mixers

Customer Review: Nice idea; looks good, but doesn't work too well & will kill your mixer!
Summary: 1 Stars

I was eager to try this gadget out last night with my new mixer and food grinder attachment, so I followed the Basic Pasta Recipe in the manual. After letting the dough rest for 15 - 30 mins by the cool window-sill (didn't have space in my fridge), I hooked up the attachments with the spaghetti plate, set the mixer at Speed 10 according to the instructions and dropped a walnut-sized dough ball into the chute. It took a while for the dough to extrude and eveything stuck together. I tried to sprinkle flour as it came out but it was difficult, since the strands hung straight down. Even when I lifted them up to dust them, they were still stuck together. I tried a few more times, shutting down the mixer every few minutes as the motor was getting really hot. I thought the problem would be resolved by using the fettucine plate (thicker strands), but the strands still stuck together since the "holes" were placed vertically. My Heavy Duty Plus mixer was burning up and I didn't want to "kill" it, so I stopped the machine, put the dough and srands in a Ziploc bag and threw it into the fridge. I had had enough - there was flour all over the counter and mixer from trying to dust the extruding strands which didn't help make them "unstick" at all; and clean up was even worse. I spent more time trying to get the dough out of crevices, the plates, and even the grinder cover than I did on making only a small portion of pasta from the dough! The only thing I like about this set is the bowl clips and that might be the only reason I would keep this set, since I got it for less than half the price at another store during a sale. This morning I decided to have egg noodle soup for lunch, so I boiled the spaghetti and fettucine strands separately from the soup. They tasted great! The rest of the dough - I guess I'll have to roll it out and cut it manually. Note: I added 1/2 tsp baking powder to the flour to make the pasta/noodles lighter and more airy in texture. The problem could be with my recipe, but that doesn't fix the burning motor problem, so I would recommend using a manual pasta machine or the pasta roller/cutter attachments rather than burning up your mixer.
