    Emmy, if you put the dye in the freezer for awhile and then hit if firmly on the counter, the pasta should come right out.

    • @telford32
      @telford32 6 месяцев назад

      I was going to comment the opposite that if you clean right away and not let dry a good flushing with hot soapy water would probably clean the dyes pretty well, but either way I could see it not being too bad.

    I finally had to throw away my Set it and Forget it the other day. I've had it for 10 years and it was my mother's before that, and who knows how long she had it. That thing got a lot of use, it lasted forever and it worked wonderfully. Not sure there's anything I didn't make in it except for soup. I bought the extra baskets for it so I could "grill" fish. steaks, veges, etc. Was going to buy another one but opted for an Air Fryer Toaster Oven instead. Regretting that decision. Sadly the As Seen on TV stuff today is nowhere near the quality of the Popeil machines.

    @robertapearson3507 5 лет назад

    Wonderful!!! Brought back memories of when I worked in a small pasta shop. The Ronco machine is exactly like the large, industrial machine we used - only in plastic & much smaller. The dies on the industrial machine are made of brass and would heat up as the dough was pushed through them. This would limit the amount of pasta you could make at one go. The clean-up factor is just the same, big or small. Those pesky little holes full of dough!!! We just soaked them in cool water for quite a while and then scrubbed them with a stiff brush. All the dough came out very easily. Most of it sort of dissolved in the cool water. You could also blow through the die once it has soaked long enough. We didn’t do that in the pasta shop, of course! But, at home, you could do that and then wash it well. Loved the video. I have no suggestions for you. Looking forward to your next one. 👵🏻🐾💕🇨🇦

    @williamdegnan4718 5 лет назад

    I miss a similar machine I had. 1. You can, if you like, mix with a different die installed while your intended die stays hot in the water bath. Switch out before extruding. 2. You can add some oil to the bath, which may help. 3. Try pouring your oil with the spout at the top, for more control. 4. If your pasta starts out ugly, you can add it back in to the machine.
    Cleanup is a pain. I would make several runs in a row, to freeze. Make the effort worth the trouble.
    Your videos are always fun to watch.

    You can clean out the holes in a few easy ways. But the easiest one is to get a plastic bowl or tupperware container, add enough water to cover the die plus a but more and add either white vinegar or bleach. 24 hours or so later the holes are clean and you just wash up the die as normal. Hope that helps people!

    I have the pasta maker with all of the dies and I love it. I use it at least twice a week, I have made lasagna, ravioli and many others, I have had my machine for 22 yrs. I have a little pointed pin just for cleaning the dies and clean up is a breeze. I use the spirolina flour and it makes delishous pasta. The noise doesn’t bother me as I am used to it. One tip- let the pasta dry in the dies before you clean them, tap them on the counter lightly and most of the dried pasta will come out.

  • @theoriginaledi

    I feel like the dies might clean easily by soaking them in hot water for just a little while, spraying them at fairly high pressure with the sprayer on your faucet, then giving them a simple wash with soapy water to get any residual dough off.
    I could, of course, be wrong. :D

    Omg I loved those early 90s infomercials when I was a kid! We didn’t have cable tv, just a giant aerial antenna because we lived in a small country town and my sister and I would wake up in the middle of the night and watch the only thing on - Ronco infomercials, until the TV went blank for the end of programming! Haha! I still dream of turkey jerky being made in his dehydrators Hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣

      Have a look at the other comments above yours though, from people who've already used and cleaned it! To recap: either let the pasta dry in the holes or freeze the dyes before trying to clean them. Either way, the pasta falls right out on it's own!

    • @liverocks62
      @liverocks62 Год назад

      It’s really easy to clean, I promise. You just have to let it dry up first, it will come off like a breeze, the holes will clean up better if you let it dry a bit also.

I have a weird built-in BBQ in a rockwall in my kitchen, and it fits perfectly in there. I just bought this pasta maker based on this video, very excited to try it :)

    I had this and I bought the extra dyes too (see order form). The catch phrase for this machine is NOISE EQUALS POWER. To clean, WAIT until everything dries then knock the dough off the parts then clean. Use a toothpick for the dyes. Cleanup is only easy if you wait! BTW we used our machine a lot, especially fun to bring to potluck parties.

      I had a yogurt machine. You had to get the milk warmed up to the right temperature (115° fahrenheit), over night cooking time. If that was not enough, more cooking time. Chilling time. I used it about three times and it was easier just to buy the yogurt. It went to the back of the cabinet and there it stayed. I was moving and I gave it to a friend of mine.

    I gave my dad this pasta maker for Father’s Day one year. Probably 1993, and I was 12... and as part of the deal he asked me to make pasta once per week for him. I was an ace with the ronco pasta machine. This machine started my love of cooking. I made fresh pasta for our family for years until the machine motor gave out.

    I have one I got when they first came out. My favorite was always the angel hair pasta. I use to make it for my parents, I added a mixture of dried herbs with the flour & egg. Mostly garlic powder & parsley. Try it, it's very good. They had a metal tool that came with the thing to clean the disks holes out. I enjoyed the Ronco commercials too. I also have 2 of the Ronco dehydrators too. I used those a lot, when I dried mints , it would scent the whole house. When adding spinach to the pasta machine, you can blend fresh leaves into the liquid mixture using a stick blender.

All my Italian friends were buying them, so I thought...why not? I never used it but thought, one day, I will. Now that I'm retired, I thought I should try. It's not a Ronco. Watching your video has definitely helped. I'm excited to make lasagna with my famous 4 hour meat sauce.
