This may come off as a dumb question but is this all I need to make pasta or do I need another attachment? Also is this all I need for ravioli?

If you have a kitchen aid stand mixer you are ready to make ravioli and any other kind of pasta. You can're bet home made pasta. Good luck and have fun.

Sorry for the delay. This looks like a great pack. Yes it has all you need. You use the pasta roller first. Then attach any of the other attachments to make the type of pasta you want. Looks like there is fettuccine, spaghetti etc. cutters. Also it has the Ravioli attachment, that's all you need. happy pasta making. You will notice the difference in taste and quality with your homemade pasta, and doesn't fill you up as much as store bought pasta. Yummy.. Naturally there are other attachments that you can buy. Such as the pasta extruder attachement to make large or small macaroni, fusili, rigatoni, bucatini, or spaghetti. Hope this is helpful Sorry for the delay. This looks like a great pack.

This is more than enough to make flat pasta types. however there is another pasta press kpexta that makes hollow noodles of different types. Of all these accessories i found the only disappointment to be the ravioli attachment. You are much better off making those by hand after making sheets of pasta with the sheet press.

All the attachments are in the kit. And everything for ravioli is included as well. I did font it helpful to buy a pasta hanger to hang the freshly made spaghetti. But you can also spead it out on parchment paper if you make a lot.

There is another attachment called the "extruder" for pasta types like Penne, hollow spaghetti, etc. with that you are complete for almost all types of pasta. Have fun.

It doesn't look like it. Seems odd to me that they would sell the two cutter attachments without the roller attachment. http://www.amazon.com/KitchenAid-KPRA-Roller-Attachment-Mixers/dp/B00004SGFS/ref=pd_sim_k_4 contains both of these cutters, along with the roller attachment. The set makes homemade pasta a breeze to make.

I while I did not try it for perogies, I did try a cheese ravioli and was unimpressed with the machine and mess. The pasta roller attachment is great and easy to use, but I found it easier to roll out my own filled pasta. Good luck.

Yes, we always use it to make ravioli. It works perfectly. Just make sure to moisten the edges before crimping.

Not if you're talking about the 'form' for making ravioli themselves. This will make the 'sheets' of pasta/dough that you lay on the ravioli form. This was really fun for my granddaughter and I to play with; check videos on line. Tip: Be sure your dough is a little drier than you might think.........to get the LONG sheets.

The machine is fabulous, got perfect results the very first try ( I have been making pasta for years). It will produce two sizes of "tube"pasta, much like pene rigatti, which could easily be stuffed with a bit of patience. The other shapes are not hollow. I do suggest, however, that if you want larger "tubes" use a manual machine (Atlas is perfect) and make large tubes on a piece of pvc pipe, sealing the edges with water.

The attachment did not work well at all. It was very difficult to use. I found it easier to roll out the dough,stuff and place in ravioli dish and cut with pastry cutter.Size was about 1 inch-very small.

Yes, my spouse has made pasta with it an it seems to work fine. She had to improvise as there were no directions with it.

You, indeed. The past maker rolls out the sheets of pasta that you'd need for ravioli. If you'd like scalloped edges to the ravioli, you'll need to buy a ravioli cutter wheel. Otherwise, all you'll need is a sharp knife, eggs, and a good recipe for the filling. Enjoy!

Hi Carol, yes I've used mine to make ravioli ... easy. Sheets are somewhat small but thats part of the fun to make your own homemade pasta...Just make two sheets, first one lay out and put your filling on top spaced equally, then place the 2nd sheet over, dab a little water or other liquid around the fillings so the layers will stick then press down gently along the edges of each ravioli. Cut with knife, or decorate edge ravioli cutter. Simmer gently.

I use this for both pasta and panettones. Works better than US all purpose for these. King Authur makes a good 00, but they don't really sell it over 2 pounds.

I love my Limited Edition Pasta maker. I got it esp because of the claim o the coating and in Florida the humidity is so high that I need all the help I can get and my pasta does not stick. I use it all the Tim for small servings too. Just one egg and 100g all purpose flour. I do not hang the fettuccini, but let it dry on the counter sprinkled with flour. Just like my Italian cooking instructor in Pimonte showed me. She had the same exact model in her restaurant kitchen. Yes you have to have a table top skinny enough for the attachment. My " island" permits it fine.

I dont use it for spaghetti. But I would cook the pasta in pot on cook mode. , drain then add sauce

yes, I have used the roller without cutting the pasta in strips for lasagna or ravioli. Cutting the pasta is a two step process, first you use the rollers until the pasta is at the thickness you want and then you can use the cutter, but you don't have to.

I have the pasta attachment instructions for the DLC7 pasta maker and would be happy to send same on to anyone who wants it...I find the pasta maker much too difficult to assemble and haven't used it in over 30 years. Originally purchased for $125.00 at Marshall Fields in Chicago. I now am back to using a manual Atlas machine.Asiana

The set I have has cutters for linguine and fettuccine, typical widths for those pastas. The cutters are deep enough that I suppose you could roll a thick piece of dough and make thick egg noodles, but, yes, that would be a function of the roller, not the cutter. As far as I know, they don't have a noodle cutter for anything a wide as pappardelle. The noodle cutters also do a nice job cutting very thin pasta, and the roller has settings from 1 to 8, 8 being thin enough to be transparent. This attachment makes pasta-making very quick and easy.

Either use less pasta or use more water, and stir it mid-way. This gadget is great for getting the pasta done quickly, and it's wonderful to not have to wash the huge pot I was using before. I use it a couple of times a week, and am happy with it.
