Know before you buy
Brass dies create a slightly rougher, porous surface on the pasta. This texture is essential for helping sauces cling to the spaghetti, resulting in a more authentic mouthfeel and flavor profile.
This die is designed for Arcobaleno pasta machines. Before purchasing, please verify the diameter and locking mechanism requirements of your specific machine model to ensure a proper fit.
Yes, the 2.1mm measurement refers to the diameter of the spaghetti strand produced by the die. This is a classic thickness that provides a firm, traditional bite.
After use, allow any remaining dough to dry completely, then use a stiff brush to remove the residue. Avoid soaking the die in water or using harsh detergents, as brass can oxidize or tarnish if left damp.
Brass dies generally require a slightly firmer, lower-hydration dough compared to plastic dies to prevent sticking. You may find that a standard semolina and water recipe works best to maintain the structural integrity of the strands.
