For the family who loves pasta, this electric maker is definitely the answer to home made pasta.  This electric pasta machine is state of the art created with chromium plated steel and containing tempered steel gears.  As an added plus, the brushings are self-lubricating.  The self-lubricating brushings keep the machine operating at peak performance.  The durability of the Imperia 220 assures the owner that the maker will continue working with little extra care for years to come.  Pasta tray is included with the pasta machine.

With the Imperia 220 Electric Pasta Machine, the gourmet cook can create a variety of pastas for every taste.  The dough roller can be set to 10 thicknesses with easily adjustable settings.

This commercial grade Imperia has a roller length of 220 mm or approximately 8 1/2 inches.  The pasta thickness can be increased up to 5 mm or almost 1/4".  For the cook on the go, pasta can be created at the rate of 12 kg an hour.  That's over 25 pounds of pasta in an hour!  All this power and all that is required is a 110V outlet.

The electric pasta machine is a favorite among Italian chefs and gourmet cooks because it only occupies 9" in width and approximately 10" in depth on the kitchen work island.

This kitchen giant is in the $1500-$1700 price range for the basic pasta machine with tray.

Accessories are a must for making all shapes of pasta.  Accessories include five different cutters allowing the professional chef or the home chef to make

  • 2 mm spaghetti,
  • 1.5 mm capelli d'angelo (angel hair),
  • 2 mm tagliatelle,
  • 4 mm trenette,
  • 6.5 mm fettucine,
  • 12 mm lasagna

Each of the above mentioned cutters can be purchased from between $100 each to $150 each.  Those are the best prices we have found.

This is the best 5 star pasta machine for the gourmet cook in the family.

Of course, as with any small kitchen appliance practice makes perfect.  Once the pasta maker is in the home, follow the manufacturer's instructions for first use or refer to the article on how to clean and care for the appliance.  To keep this appliance your top choice for years to come, it is essential to follow the cleaning instructions to the letter.  Water is the enemy of most pasta makers, but it is the greatest enemy for the Imperia 220 Electric model.

Additionally, to keep the new appliance your top choice, experiment with pasta recipes and the choice of ingredients in your dough.  After all, the machine can only do so much.  It is the gourmet cook who brings the best of recipes and machines together.
