9. Allow fresh pasta to dry before cooking.
NOTE: Do not block the vent holes in the front of the appliance.
Avoid getting flour or anything in the vent holes. If flour should get in the vent holes, unplug the appliance and tip the appliance all the way forward until the vent holes are pointing straight down, and gently shake the appliance up and down over a rubbish bin to remove any flour.

9 Helpful Tips

FLOUR
You may use many types of flour when making pasta with your PASTA MAKER, including semolina pasta flour, all purpose or whole wheat flour.
MAKING COLOURED PASTA
You can use any vegetable juice you like instead of water when making homemade pasta. To achieve your desired colour of pasta, use smaller eggs or remove some of the egg mixture so you can add more juice to fill to the top of the Water Measuring Cup. Pour this liquid into the appliance through the opening in the Lid and MIX for 3
-5 minutes.
DOUGH CONSISTENCY
Depending on the humidity, you may need to add additional flour or liquid to your pasta dough to achieve the correct consistency.
If the pasta mix is too moist, add 1 Tbsp. of flour at a time through the opening in the Lid as the unit is on MIX.
If pasta mix is too dry, add 1 Tsp. of liquid at a time to achieve the desired consistency.
If the dough is too wet and becomes one large clump, it could push open the Lid of the Mixing Container. If this happens, turn the unit OFF and unplug, separate the dough and add flour.
If your pasta is sticking together, the dough is probably too wet. Add 1 Tbsp. of flour at a time. Additional water or flour may be sprinkled through the opening of the Lid.
EXTRUDING PASTA
To extrude longer pasta, place the unit close to the edge of your counter or table so the pasta can continue to flow toward the floor. Cut at the desired length by running the back of a table knife flush against the Pasta Die
Take care not to drop the appliance off the bench top. .
Page 13 of 26
COOKING FRESH PASTA
Cooking pasta "al dente", or firm and chewy, is preferred. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your pasta and personal preference. Be careful to not overcook your pasta. Thinner pasta, like spaghetti, takes as little as 30 seconds to a minute to cook. For 500 grams of pasta, cook in 4 to 6 litres of boiling, salted water and remove immediately. Rinse in cold water to stop the cooking process.

10 How to Make Sausage

1. Fit the sausage horn in the locking ring and attach to the appliance as described previously. Secure to the face plate with the locking ring.
2. Slide a length of natural or synthetic sausage casing (up to 1 meter) over the horn, leaving about 50mm hanging at the end.
3. Prepare Meat: You can use ground or finely cut (up to 1cm cubed chunks) of sausage meat, fish or poultry etc. but make sure it is unfrozen, then with the appliance turned off, open the lid, add up to 1Kg of the meat, fish or poultry and seasonings of your choice. Adjust seasonings accordingly. Additional small amount of filler, such as chopped, cooked vegetables or rice etc. also can be added.
4. Fit and Close lid.
5. Add in (up to 1Kg) pre-cooked Vegetables herbs, peas, corn, carrots etc. if required.
Cut vegetables. into small pieces first. NOTE: vegetables must be cooked and soft.
6. Switch appliance to MIX and blend ingredients for 30 seconds. Turn appliance OFF and let the motor fully stop.
7. Turn appliance to EXT and hold the twisted end of the sausage casing firmly. As the ingredients are extruded it will begin to fill the casing and will push away from the horn.
such as rice, potatoes,
Page 14 of 26
When the casing has filled to the desired sausage length, hold the sausage in place with one hand and detach the filled casing form the horn and place the sausage on a flat surface.
To make the sausage into smaller sections of sausage, use your forefinger of your other hand to compress sausage firmly into an oval shape. This will reduce the amount of sausage in the casing allowing you to press down hard with your forefinger ready for twisting.
Wherever you want you first sausage length to be, twist the sausage 3 times.
Continue these steps until all of your shorter lengths of sausages are made.
To separate your sausages, use scissors to cut at the twists.
NOTE: DO NOT OVERFILL CASING: meat and food expands when heated and will split the casing.
To help relieve pressure inside sausage casing, use a toothpick to poke a few holes in each of your sausage before cooking.
Ensure all surfaces and utensils that come in contact with the sausage as it's being prepared are clean.
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water often. Bacteria thrives at room temperature.
Always keep meet cool and refrigerate as soon as possible.
DO NOT leave meat sitting out.
Keep your working area clean and uncluttered

11 Cleaning The Appliance

Do Not Immerse the Motor Housing or Plug in Water or Liquid.
Please take care of your PASTA MAKER by following these simple instructions and precautions.

Dough needs to be the correct consistency. Refer to “How to Use
Appliance” section for instruction. Set the die in very hot water for a
minute prior to making pasta. You can always correct your extruded
pasta by putting it back into the mixing container and starting over
before it dries out.
Switch to MIX for a few seconds. This will relieve pressure on the
locking ring and die. Use the wrench to help unscrew the locking
ring.
Noise equals power. But loud clunks are not normal. Stop and be
sure your appliance is assembled correctly. Also refer to the
“Cleaning The Appliance” section to be sure it is clean.
Some hot steam escaping from the pasta die is normal during use
and is caused by the friction heat from the pasta being extruded
through the die.. Don’t touch dies when hot during and after
extruding.
Can’t line up Pad Lock Symbols on faceplate
If you can’t line up the Pad Lock Symbols on your faceplate, this
indicates that the faceplate is not clean and there may be excess
flour build-up. It must be removed from the locking area, container
and faceplate. Make sure there is no flour in the white screw hole.
