What pasta machine would you recommend? I'm looking for something very durable.

We use one that attaches to our kitchen aid mixer and it’s amazing. So fast and easy to use.

[–] JaCrispy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

This is what I use too and I really like it

[–] tjhart85@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Us too. We had one like in the OP's pic and it worked great for years, but, the attachment is on another level.

Combine that with the cheese grater and you're most of the way to heaven.

I really wanted to get that one but the price tag was a bit prohibitive. In .au I was looking at ~$150 for each attachment, and I'd need one for each roller - laminator, spaghetti, fettuccini.

I ended up getting a manual one which does the trick - I'm never making pasta for more than 4 people.

[–] Milx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Me too. If you have a mixer already it's worth it.

I was gifted an Atlas 150 for Christmas and as a beginner I really like it. It seems to be well made. It’s a lot of fun to use.

Marcato Atlas works great. TBH, I have never used anything else, so others can be good too.

[–] McSquanch@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I agree with everyone else (Mercato Atlas) and would add that should you ever want to venture into other pasta shapes, Mercato has a good range of accessories.

The one in your picture should be the marcato 150 atlas I bought mine a couple years ago for 50$ still works great till this day.

[–] vvvvv@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Before buying, check that you actually like homemade pasta. I bought Marcato Atlas knock-off and turns out I don't like the pasta from homemade dough (1 large egg per 100 g flour), preferring Barilla, etc.

+1 for the Marcato Atlas
