!!!!here are other products in the market that can simplify the pasta-making
process. However, they require that the dough is made by hand or by using a
powerful stand mixer. Then putting that dough into an extrusion attachment
by hand. And the amount of pasta types you can prepare with those
attachments is usually limited to a small number. !

Assembling the Viante
Pasta Machine!

he various components need to be assembled in the following order:!
!
!
Introduce the mixing blade in the mixing chamber (Image 1). The rear end should go in first. After the front end is in
place, the mixing blade should be straight and in place. Once it’s in place the metal shaft should be inserted. !
!
Insert the thin end of the steel rod/shaft into the opening of the mixing chamber and then the mixing paddle. Push it
through until it is fully inserted. You may need to rotate the steel rod slightly in order for it to fit into place. (Image 2)!
!
Guide the mixing chamber into the motor base. Align the steel rod and the arrow-shaped lock on top of the mixing
chamber with the small openings at the back of the motor base. (Image 3)!
!
Twist and slightly lift the mixing blade until it fits comfortably into the slot. Once correctly inserted, it will “click” into
place. !
!
Fully insert the steel end of the extrusion screw in the opening of the extrusion chamber and twist it until it “clicks”
into place. (Image 4)!
!
Select your desired pasta disc and position it on the opening of the extrusion chamber so that the small grooves on the
disc fit comfortably on the three tabs of the extrusion chamber opening. (Image 5).!
!
Secure the disc by placing the disc holder over the opening of the extrusion chamber and tighten it by screwing it in a
clockwise direction. (Image 6)!

!!!!!!! ow is time to make pasta with your Viante Pasta Machine. !
!
There are many different recipes you can use. Here’s the basic
recipe:!
!
31/3 cups (500 grs) plain flour. !
2large eggs (60g eggs).!
1tblsp extra olive oil. !
120 ml (4oz.) water.!
½teaspoon salt.!
Extra Flour for Dusting. !
!
There are additional recipes in the instructional Manual supplied with the product. Feel free to make
changes to the recipe but make sure you achieve the right consistency so the dough is not too dry
or too wet and it can extrude easily. !
!!
N!

1
Place the FLOUR in the mixing bowl and close the lid. !
!
Slightly whisk the eggs, salt and olive oil together. !
!
Remove the small lid from the main lid. !
!
!
TURN ON THE MACHINE and begin to mix. !
!
Slowly pour the whisked eggs through the small lid opening. Do it in small increments and allow 10 seconds
between each pour. !
!
Start pouring the water in very small increments. Allowing each increment to mix for 30 seconds. Look for
the right dough consistency which should not be homogeneous, but, rather, be in small pea-size pieces (not
too dry, not too wet. See next page). The dough should not be sticky and should not stick to the mixing
blades. If it does, make sure the slider is in the CLOSED position and sprinkle a little flour (tea spoonful) and
see if that’s enough. Repeat if it’s still to wet or until reaching the right consistency (small pea-size pieces).!
!
Allow to mix for two minutes. !
!
!
!
!
!
You might not need to use all the water. It depends on the amount of eggs and the type of flour and water
hardness. The best results are achieved by looking at the dough and realizing when the right consistency is
achieved. The right dough consistency is shown in the next page. That consistency is able to fall down to the
extrusion chamber and be pushed out smoothly. !

MIXING THE INGREDIENTS!

1!Right Dough Consistency!

1
You might not need to use all the water. It depends on the amount of eggs and the type of
flour and water hardness. The best results are achieved by looking at the dough and
realizing when the right consistency is achieved. !
!
Normally, adding the ingredients and allowing proper mixing should not take more than:!
!
5 minutes. !
!
If you let the ingredients mix for a long time they might become too elastic and sticky. And
it could results in a harder to extrude dough as it sticks to the mixing blade and mixing bowl.!
!
!!
1!REMEMBER!!

1
Once the mix has achieved its right consistency, pull from the slider on the side and place it in the
open position. You don’t need to to remove it completely. !
!
!
Once the slider is put in the opened position, pasta will fall into the extruding chamber and will
start to come out of the front where the die disc is. !
!
As the pasta comes out, sprinkle some flour on it to avoid sticking. !
!
Once the desired length is achieved, cut the pasta using the wire cutter provided. !
!
Extrude all the dough in the mixing bowl. If some of the dough sticks to the mixing components,
remove the lid and move the pieces of dough by hand. This will solve the problem. You can repeat
this step if needed. !
!
Once all the dough is extruded, you can turn off the machine. !
!
All the dough in the mixing bowl should be able to be extruded in approximately 15 – 20 minutes. If
the dough consistency is too wet it might take a longer time as it’s harder for the dough to fall
down into the extrusion chamber. !

EXTRUDING/CUTTING THE PASTA!

1
Like any complex product with many moving parts, the Viante Pasta Machine requires
proper cleaning and maintenance in order to deliver gourmet-grade pasta with each use.
Please consider the following instructions very carefully:!
!
All of the removable components are dish-washer safe. !
!
Make sure you don’t use the heated dry feature in your dish washer as it can cause
discoloration of plastic components and/or melting if you place plastic parts near the heating
elements. !
!
Use the provided brush to remove dry dough and flour from hard-to-reach areas. Especially
within the extrusion drawer or chamber. !
!
Use your fingers to remove all the sticky dough from moving parts before putting them in
the dish-washer. !
!
Use the provided needle tool to clean the dies properly by removing the dough in them. !
!
Use a wet cloth and mild soap to clean the body of the pasta machine. !
!
Do not submerge the pasta machine body as it will cause damage to the electrical
components. !
