Any kind of flour can be used (bran or bran-
flour). The dough can be kneaded
only
with
eggs or with a mix of water and eggs. Water
can be partially replaced by spinach or well-
cut vegetables in order to obtain green
noodles.
Because the flour’s humidity
changes
according to the kind, the environment and
the place where it is stocked, the indicated
quantities have to be adapted to the kind of
flour which is used,
lowering or increasing
the quantity of water.
The dough is the right one when, at the end
of kneading, it is as big as coffee beans.
If the flour forms lumps you have poured in
too much liquid.
In this case
, before turning the switch from
KNEAD to DRAWPLATE
you have to add
some more flour and knead a little longer. If
flour does not form a ball and is too floury,
add some more water.
For the dough for the sheet of pasta which is
to be re-kneaded please use “00” flour and
add two eggs per kilo of flour (maximum).
With these quantities you will obtain a very
stretchy dough which is easy to knead.

• then make sure that the plastic cap
(
Fig. 1
) which replaces the drawplate is
correctly positioned and the ring nut
(
Fig. 1
) is tightly well-screwed on;
• lastly lock the mixer (
Fig. 1
) tightly in its
seat by means of the head-knob (
Fig. 1
)
or tighten the mobile support in the TR
75/E (
Fig. 1 bis
see page 21).
Pull up the pool cover (
Fig. 3
) and
always
put in the pre-established ingre-
dients in the following sequence: flour and
then, after closing the cap, all the other
liquid elements.
In order to obtain the right dough, you need
to create the right ratio between the weight
of the flour and the weight of the liquid part;
in order to obtain a very good product, the
flour has to contain a humidity percentage
of no more than 15%; this allows the addi-
tion of water equal to 35% or up to 38% of
the flour’s weight. If you are using flours
with different humidity contents, please
change the quantity of the liquid in the
opposite ratio. Moreover, in order to better
use the machine, the product inside the
pool has to be higher than at a minimum
level which coincides more or less with the
position of the mixer axle.

3.1 USEFUL ADVICE IN ORDER TO OBTAIN GOOD DOUGH
3.2 QUANTITIES IN ORDER TO OBTAIN GOOD DOUGH
Pour the desired quantity of flour into the pool; it needs 7 eggs per kilo of flour:
• Supposed weight of an egg: 50 grams.
• If you take 1 egg away you need to add 50 grams of water.
