Pasta Machine Thickness Chips

For ages I have mainly used the largest and the smallest settings on the pasta machine (I have an Imperia one with 6 settings). I can't see much difference between the first 3 settings. I decided to spend 5 minutes making some reference chips from some scrap.

There really isn't much difference between the first 2 settings, hardly worth having. So now I can check and see what the settings correspond to. Not sure how much I will use it but I am glad I now know not to bother with setting 2 at all.

  2. Great idea! I've made similar type things before but not for the pasta machine thickness. Sometimes I make something and want to repeat it and can't remember what thickness I used. This would be a good way to measure. I think I will have to make myself some.
