Atlas Pasta Machines
Atlas Pasta Machines
I was hoping that someone could help me figure out the difference
between an Atlas Marcato 150 Pasta Machine and an Atlas Pasta Machine
180. Or, if anyone has a better recommendation for a stand-alone
manual pasta machine, that too would be welcome!
Thanks in advance,
Julie

Julie, I have no answer for your questions; but I want to let you know that
I bought an Atlas Pasta Machine many years ago. I had several tables and
several houses over the years, and there were none/nothing that I could
attach my pasta machine to. There must be a simple answer, but my husband,
who is more than handy [a 'shop' graduate ;-) ] could never set it up for
me.
It's something to think about, and I'm sure there will be answers to my
posting here au contrare.

No overhanging countertop? Or even a thick cutting board that you could allow to
project two inches over the countertop?

I suspect you just didn't offer him the proper incentives, Dee... 8;)

Never could find anything that would work.

Perhaps he wasn't interested.
He'll pay!

FWIW, Alton Brown suggests rigging it up to an ironing board.

Yes, I saw and recorded that. I thought it was quite interesting. I kept
my ironing board for a long time (until 6 months ago, I think) just to use
for rolling out pasta, but out it went when I bought a stainless steel
table. It was too dirty to use, anyway.
As I recall, he used it OUTSIDE on his porch. I can imagine cleaning up the
flour that falls into all the nooks and crannies of this ironing board
before or after bringing it back into the house. Outside we have 'black
biting flies.' (A Southern gift.)
I have to confess I did buy a KitchenAid pasta roller, but have had it soo
long I'm ashamed to say; and have not used it -- yet!
But I will!
