What does the "press" do? It's pictured in all the illustrations but they never show how you use it.

Kristen; if yours aren't being cut cleanly you may need to roll your dough thinner and/or press harder with the pin. Pressing harder will also seal them better so they don't come apart when cooking. If you're having to peel them off the tablet, you're not using enough flour before laying down the dough sheet. Use a sifter or flour shaker to dust the whole tablet. (Some people use PAM spray, but, yuck. Just use the same flour you used to make the pasta.)

You put your first sheet of dough on the silver tray and then you push down with the white tray to create your indents. Take off the white tray, add your filling to the indents, and put egg wash on dough between filling. Lastly you will cover with your second sheet of dough, and roll over entire thing with a rolling pin. The edges on the silver pan will "cut" the ravioli out with the pressure from the rolling pin. It's more like a mold then a press.

That is how I use it as well but the metal doesn't cut the dough well enough and then I end up peeling them out and off of the press- which is why they tear so easily and are then wasted once they split open.

No. There are no guide rods on this press. The picture is definitely NOT accurate. You'd think that the seller of this item (or ANY item for that matter) WOULD put an accurate picture of an item, so the customer at least has an idea of what they're getting....... NOT! All they care about is making money! By the way, this is a bench top press. not a stand alone.

There is a ballon that squeezes the hand. There are balls that are supposed to massage fingers and the palm is supposed to get warm. No air to fingers. It needs serious redesign. The balls are barely felt. The squeeze is waaay too much and personally it made my thumb joints extremely painful from the squeeze. Definitely not a recommend from me.

Honestly I don't really know how to use the entire thing because the one I'm selling is unused. You should try to youtube it.

It just slips past the cheese and runs out the bottom. I have only used it once and I think I over-pressed my Monterray Jack but won't know for a couple months. I have not yet figured out how to manage pressing without a guage. The press is quite beautiful and easy to clean. I like its low tech design but hope I haven't made a mistake in getting one without a guage.

That means you're really not clicking it into place. You have to push very hard (and pull really hard when clicking it out of place) If you look at the very top the legs, there will be a little circle with a hook like thing on botg sides. That has togo into the little blue space at the top. It's really tricky but you will hear the click and make sure it's clicked on all 4 sides

No, you don't. But it works as a handle too if you plan on pushing it around.

It's cardboard or wood press...whatever they call it. If it's not being placed against a wall, I wouldn't buy it.

I am sorry, I purchased this but have not even removed it from the package. My press works fine without it.

No, that press was never designed or cannot be converted to work with three hole. The turret ring would not support a three ring turret.

If you press up/on it will fade up the last last set level. If you then press down/off it will fade out. If you press and hold up/on it will fade up until you release it. Same then for press and hold down/off. And I agree that visitors don't get it! But I love the fades.

It pushes out with a push button. It is a bit touchy which I found cool since I could glide my arm along the side of my torso and produce the illusion of it acting like the game. I will admit the handlers weren't kind but the product came out fine.

It does go in a press. Most presses use a standardized thread this will fit into, I use an RCBS. Lyman publishes several books about reloading.

No I,m afraid not ..the only thing I could think of is that you use the press handle ...pushing away from you with your left hand rather than pulling towards you with your right......mmmmm if you get my drift.Either way it's one heck of a juicer.

no. it also is a bit of a piece of crud. the touch screen also is a press not a touch. it is a good marketing campaign for a bad product. i hope you have found this helpful
