Audis, Orange 5s, ****™ coffee machines, wood burners and single malts are sooo last year.

Who has got one of these?

They are teh awsum.

Pasta is the new coffee.

Pasta is the new coffee.

although it can bung up your bean to cup machine if you use the fresh stuff.

We’re all modern up here, we’ve got a proper tumble dryer instead of one of those.

does it make this?

Pasta? 2007 wants its food fad back.
For the urbane man about town it’s all about pulled pork from a pop-up restaurant and even that is starting to wane.
Are you posting from the grim north? Still wearing snow-wash double denim?

It’s all about the low carb diet in here these days.

Nope, but who else got this for Xmas:

Making your own pasta just doesn’t fit into the time window

Still wearing snow-wash double denim?

<brushes mullet>

What’s your point?

We have one….and the pasta drying tree thing.

Bought in Garda.

I didn’t match much at all in the other ‘typical STWer’ thread, but I do have a pasta roller.

It doesn’t get used much, but might just get roller out Sat. lunchtime 🙂

I’ve just installed this in the cellar.

It generates just under 1kW with the reactor operating in its top range. Not quite enough for the ring main but it copes fine with the lighting circuit.

Waste fuel rods are small in number but still a problem to dispose of.
A bit like my old porrrrno mag’s !

Gold-plated…

d_s – I have no idea what that is but I need one.

It’s like Mamod on steroids.

Please may I have a link to whatever that is derek

Thanks

You should google David Hahn. The poster boy for home brew nuclear power. 😯

Wilesco Atomic: http://modelsteam.myfreeforum.org/archive/wilesco-atomic__o_t__t_24897.html

wow!

I love old toys: “Look, it’s a mains electricity powered high pressure steam generator for children – what could possibly go wrong?”

Pasta? How 1990’s.
Pollenta? How 1990’s.

MrSmith has it. It’s all about getting someone else to do Niche* cheap/easy food for you these days and no, that doesn’t include Pizzas from Dominos.

*bit more expensive than you would want to pay, but you are on the move so it seems ok, so long as you only do it 4 times a week (but wind up doing it 5)

my mums got one. the pasta is awesome.

bought her this for mothers day a couple of years ago.

sent one of the italians from work on a mission to get me a rotella tagliapasta as that was the latest required gadget.

pasta drying tree thing

Got to be the most middle class thing I have ever seen.

I really, really need one of these

Possibly a collection of them..

Many shades of loveliness!

we have one (no pasta tree though!), it was a gift and sits in the cupboard doing sweet fa. The pasta we made once was nice but life’s too short

Got one of these to deal with the sirloins when we’re sick of steak.

And this is great for melting cheese to put on toast..

That Wilesco is gorgeous! I’ve got a normal one, but that thing…

I was only joking about the Wilesco being a proper N station….

And this is great for melting cheese to put on toast..

now that is awesome, specially with the horns 🙂

“Look, it’s a mains electricity powered high pressure steam generator for children – what could possibly go wrong?”

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!

These are amazing!

I’ve got one – the pasta machine not a steam engine – and a drying rack just like the one above

say what you like but fresh pasta is lush

no audi though

<<personal shame content>>
Caught myself looking at sous vide machines the other day thinking that would be good 😳

Pfft! You screaming bunch of lords! I’ve just had this installed in my back garden

All kitchen utensils are now redundant

say what you like but fresh pasta is lush

isn’t plain old dried pasta using durum wheat or whatever, a good source of energy and excellent for athletes tubby IT managers bimbling round trail centres whereas fresh pasta isn’t very good for you?

Caught myself looking at sous vide machines the other day thinking that would be good

yes I have done that

how about a thermomix like the tem sky chef has?

I’m off to Binners’ for lunch!

Home made fresh pasta ravioli filled with spicy butternut squash, chilled £4.99 Pinot, candles, Dido on t’CD player. Shagtastic.

4od Simply Italian

It’s got one of these in it:

Yep I bought one for my wife for xmas last year. What with my coffee machine and new 29er I’m becoming quite the typical stwer!

dildo on the cd player? that’s a new one

mine came from santa along with this book which I mentioned to him after a rec from STW, and it is very good indeed.

You could use it as a milk frother for the ****­™ coffee machine.

Digital perfection.

Is plain old dried pasta just fresh pasta that has been dried? (thats how I make my dried pasta, with my machine that looks exactly like the machine in the OP – still don’t own an audi though.)
