Marcato Wellness - Cleaning and Maintenance; How to Remove and Replace the Blade

Lay the pasta on a damp clean tea towel. Cook immediately. If you plan on storing the pasta
(for 1 month at the most), you can use the handy Marcato Tacapasta Drying Rack to allow it to dry.
Pasta dries in about 5-6 hours, depending on temperature and humidity,
and can be stored in suitable kitchen containers.

Cut the nished sheet into 10 in. (25 cm) lengths (Fig. 12).
Attach the selected cutting accessory and start feeding the sheet through
the rollers to form the desired pasta (Fig. 13).
Note 1: If the rollers are not able to cut, it means that the sheet of pasta is too soft.
In this case, we recommend kneading the dough with your hands, adding some
our, and feeding it through the smooth rollers again.
Note 2: If the sheet of pasta is too dry and is not “gripped” by the cutting rollers,
we recommend kneading the dough by hand and adding some water.
Feed the dough through the smooth rollers again.
TIP:
For fettuccine, the
recommended thickness
setting is 5 on the thickness-
adjustment knob.
For tagliolini, use setting 7.
For the thinnest possible
pasta sheet, feed it through
the rollers twice at setting 9.
