The Pasta Maker has a safety feature so that
the appliance will not work unless the mixing
chamber and lid have been securely locked into
position.
Step 9 - Adding water
Ensure the mixing chamber lid is locked in
position and the power outlet is switched on.
Switch the power ‘ON’ using the ON/OFF
switch to start the mixing process. Mix for
approximately 1 minute.
WARNING : THE MIXING PADDLES TURN
EXTREMELY FAST. DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS
INTO THE MIXING CHAMBER UNTIL THE MIXING
PADDLE HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED MOVING.
Remove the measuring spoon and add water
in a slow steady stream using the quantity
required in your recipe (see recipe section of
this booklet).
Do not add all of the water. Hold about 20% of
the water in reserve.
When adding water to the flour mixture, pour
water along the entire length of the opening in
the lid. This ensures that the water is distributed
evenly.
Be sure to replace the removable measuring
spoon when you are finished adding ingredients
to the mixing chamber. This will prevent
ingredients from escaping.
Suggestion : To prevent ingredients from escaping
the mixing chamber while adding water,
partially cover the opening with the
measuring spoon.
Not all water may need to be added due to
varying moisture contents in different flours. Be
careful not to add too much water.
Allow the Pasta Maker to mix and knead the
dough for approximately 3 minutes or until the
dough resembles small “pea sized” pieces.
It is important to add extra water to the mixing
bin slowly so that the correct dough consistency
can be achieved. If too much water is added, the
dough will begin to stick into a large mass. If
this occurs turn the Pasta Maker to the ‘ OFF’
position and push the slider into the closed
position so flour cannot enter the chamber. Break
the dough up into small pieces, sprinkle it with a
little flour and allow the Pasta Maker to re-mix
and knead until it resembles the required “pea
sized” pieces of dough (see trouble shooting
page 14).
