Product Description
Got the dough? We've got the machine. From spaghetti to lasagna, no one says no to homemade pasta.

Amazon.com Review
These sturdy plastic plates work in place of the metal cutters of your food grinder to produce thin and thick spaghetti noodles, thin flat noodles, wider lasagna noodles, and macaroni. Turn the mixer speed to 10, drop walnut-size pieces of dough into the food tray, and catch the noodles as they're extruded through the plates. When you're through, put them in the dishwasher. Then store them neatly and easily in the included case, which doubles as a food stomper. --Betsy Danheim

Thanks a million! June 27, 2008
I teach pasta making classes on a regular basis and have always used a hand cranked pasta machine. Last week a friend brough over his KA rollers for me to try. We attached them to my KA mixer, and WOW! It was incredibly easy and made the absolute best textured pasta I've ever had - EVER!
I was so excited by the thought of being able to make extruded pastas with these plates I was going to jump on here and buy them right away --- that is until I read all these horrible reviews. THANK YOU EVERYONE!! I guess I'll stick with my fettucine, linguine and lasagna and buy the wonderful rollers instead!

Nice idea; looks good, but doesn't work too well & will kill your mixer! June 4, 2008
I was eager to try this gadget out last night with my new mixer and food grinder attachment, so I followed the Basic Pasta Recipe in the manual. After letting the dough rest for 15 - 30 mins by the cool window-sill (didn't have space in my fridge), I hooked up the attachments with the spaghetti plate, set the mixer at Speed 10 according to the instructions and dropped a walnut-sized dough ball into the chute. It took a while for the dough to extrude and eveything stuck together. I tried to sprinkle flour as it came out but it was difficult, since the strands hung straight down. Even when I lifted them up to dust them, they were still stuck together. I tried a few more times, shutting down the mixer every few minutes as the motor was getting really hot. I thought the problem would be resolved by using the fettucine plate (thicker strands), but the strands still stuck together since the "holes" were placed vertically. My Heavy Duty Plus mixer was burning up and I didn't want to "kill" it, so I stopped the machine, put the dough and srands in a Ziploc bag and threw it into the fridge. I had had enough - there was flour all over the counter and mixer from trying to dust the extruding strands which didn't help make them "unstick" at all; and clean up was even worse. I spent more time trying to get the dough out of crevices, the plates, and even the grinder cover than I did on making only a small portion of pasta from the dough! The only thing I like about this set is the bowl clips and that might be the only reason I would keep this set, since I got it for less than half the price at another store during a sale. This morning I decided to have egg noodle soup for lunch, so I boiled the spaghetti and fettucine strands separately from the soup. They tasted great! The rest of the dough - I guess I'll have to roll it out and cut it manually. Note: I added 1/2 tsp baking powder to the flour to make the pasta/noodles lighter and more airy in texture. The problem could be with my recipe, but that doesn't fix the burning motor problem, so I would recommend using a manual pasta machine or the pasta roller/cutter attachments rather than burning up your mixer.

KitchenAid SNPA Pasta Maker Plates for Food Grinder April 5, 2008
I wish I hadn't of bought this. I read another review where they said smoke was coming out of their mixer. I thought towards the end of making pasta with these attachments, that mine too would burn up the motor. I have the pasta rollers and cutters. More expensive but soooo much easier to work with and less stress on your mixer.

Love the container that holds all the blades, bowl clips, etc. in one place. It keeps it all together, so I'm not constantly looking and rummaging through drawers to find the parts. However, I was not aware that I needed the grinder to be able to use these blades. I thought they were add ons for my pasta rollers (duh! right?) Anyway, I had to order the grinder before using these blades. I just received the grinder, so have not had a chance to use the blades yet. I am, however, looking forward to using this set, especially with the price of pasta going sky high along with all the rest of the groceries. (THANK YOU OIL COMPANIES!!!)

Have always wanted to try making pasta. This is an easy way to do it. I thought it might take some practice to get it right but my first batch of pasta turned out great!
