- Ok, so this ended up being a rather epic video indeed. Trying out an automatic pasta making machine that is supposed to cost £170, luckily I found a little bargain on eBay for £22, but would you use it?

Well, this turned out to be rather epic indeed... I wanted to give it a fair go.... and we were well fed for the next few days on pasta! If you enjoyed this video check out more individual kitchen gadget testing videos here on this playlist ua-cam.com/video/olFYfhtScR4/v-deo.html .... also if you would like to consider getting one of these, i've found it on Amazon amzn.to/361QH8G
Well done Barry
All your videos are epic!
Barry, you needed to change it from Auto, when you use your own dough. It changes its spinning part way through. The first direction mixes the ingredients together, and the other direction extruded the dough. Please try it again!
Ghetto box Barry? Ghetto blaster back in my day 👍
@@susanhobbs2463 Typical bloke he didn't read the instruction book properly!
One of these days, you'll read the manual properly. It'll happen. I believe in you.
When all else fails read the directions. That is how many people get through all new products
Not likely
Best get the fire hose out.
Aloe is going to do nothing for that burn.
I don't he's brittish, its in his blood to make everything inedible.
@@alexlandsbergs Go away
Follows directions: works reasonably.
Wings it a little: Doesn't work. This machine is a lemon!
Follows directions again: works reasonably again... It Works!
Sounds like Barry 😂
...standard
Just think how boring Barry's videos might be if he properly read directions 🙂
@@munkustrap2 it's true... i'm not dissing Barry, i'm amused more than anything.
Whilst I like Barry, sometimes he forgoes common sense for the comedy... Honestly, I wish he'd drop the schtick a little bit. He's been cooking far too long to need to be told to stir an egg with the liquid before drizzling it through a small feed hole. If not, I really pity Mrs. Barry
Barry this machine is actually amazing (I have the larger one). If used properly it’s awesome. It’s a home version of an industrial pasta extruder. Watch tutorial videos to understand how to use it properly. It’s one of the best investments i’ve made.
I think Barry have a valid reason. He isn't "new" in kitchen anymore.
It's not safe time as you need to be there to cut extrude pasta and it's slow.
Mixer that can knead the dough + cutter is cheap, work faster and don't have dough left.
If you don't really new in kitchen and don't planned to make penne. don't buy this machine isn't a bad recommend.
put4558350 The purpose of a pasta extruder is to create shapes that can’t be created by hand. You can get pasta extruders that cut the pasta by themselves- for a small fortune. It does save time actually if used properly. The whole process is quick and efficient. Faster than using a roller.
I use this machine for rigatoni, bigoli, etc etc. Which can’t be achieved by hand. If I want to make lasagna or any other flat pasta I use my hand crank pasta maker. Traditionally some pasta’s are made by hand- and some are made from an extruder.
@@MisaMisuMajide Manual pasta extrudes also exist and cheap you know ?
... I just recommend cutter for beginner.
@@MisaMisuMajide I agree I have seen this macuine used properly and the pasta it makes is great. Unfortunately we have Mr B running the show so we get a Barrithon of User Errors instead 😂 😂 😂
Timothy Smith Honestly he isnt the first person i’ve seen use it terribly on youtube. The girl from Eater reviewing it was terrible! Watch that if you haven’t. I was cringing the whole time
well... you CAN use your own recipes as long as you follow the flour/wet ingredients ratio and let the machine do the dough. It basically means that you put the flavoring in the wet; very finely chopped, preferably juice - or in flour if it is dry powder. Like dried, finely ground spinach or tomatoes.
Also, for future testing, go find some videos of other people using the things. The manufacturer usually has an instruction video, and there probably are other people out there as well who have tried. Even though I enjoy your occatinal screw-ups, I enjoy more when you make things work :-)
when you put your kneeded dough into the machine it was still doing its kneeding mode as though you had just put flour and egg in. youd need to set it for a while, wait for it to beep and start its second mode.
Haha I was thinking the same thing!
I think he set it to the extrude mode from the start
@@ScarfmonsterWR It was set to auto on the top ;)
nope you're all wrong look at the cork screw extruder the second time. It's pushing the dough back into the mixing area
@@BaronFeydRautha yes... Because he just paused it when swapping the doughs so it continued on kneading then switched to extruding
I really think this might have been more successful if you'd read the instructions before you started.
And I'd be less inclined to shout at the TV about it!
But that's not the Barry way! 😂
Instruction manuals are there as packing. Every bloke knows that. You've got a new gadget, one that goes 'ding!' when there's stuff. You haven't time for the vapid niceties of an instruction manual, so you flick through it, and are ready to go. You're a bloke, a geezer, you don't need no stinkin' instructions. It'll work. Eventually.🤔
@@brianartillery this comment made my day!! =)
As sure as the sky is blue and the sea is wet, Barry will skim through instructions. Like a boss.
You were close to operating this machine correctly on your first attempt. Your efforts got progressively worse on each attempt after that.
Dude, how are you not getting how the penne attachment works. It's a hollow tube shape
its the peril of youtubers, common sense is not a thing on camera ever. Easy mistake to make
@@LordDragox412 sadly this epidemic is contagious and has infected a lot of the platform
I was kind of hoping for him to try the penne without the centre piece of the mould/extruder head
LOL...! I KNOW!
Good ol' Barry "User Error" Lewis back at it again lol
I work in an Italian restaurant and we have something very similar to this but on a bigger scale and made of metal. Look up La Monferrina P3. You use different brass disks which changes the type of pasta, exactly like this. 3kg flour and 1.2kg eggs makes a perfect dough.
This. This right here is why I love Barry so much. Because he doesn't edit anything out, he shows you the whole process, good or bad. ❤
I just want to say i appreciate whoever puts the captions on these, i can hear perfectly fine but i do prefer reading subtitles sometimes and this channel always has good ones
I love when Barry makes his cuts in the video, counter looks clean and all is well in one shot and all hell broke loose a second later in another cut.
the directions said to pause the mixer and then add the egg mix in
When has Barry ever read the instructions properly?
@@rolfs2165 😂😂
Well at least it worked.
Lol i’ve just bought pretty much the same machine 2 days ago. Used it yesterday, and its amazing!!
Nordin Van den bulk I hope you used it better than he did!
I have this machine and it works great if you follow directions. For 20 it's a hell of a steal. I think you need to retest this one!
Barry this automatic pasta maker is basically a home version of an industrial pasta extruder.
I have this machine. It's absolutely amazing. You need a scale and measurements need to be exact. It makes perfect pasta Everytime if done right.
Barry You gotta use the pasta recepies that comes with the manual, then it works
I watched a few reviews of this where people followed the instructions properly and had no complaints even if they were expecting to hate it. Then I watched Barry charge in, get everything wrong and blame the machine. Classic :-)
I bought this machine a year or two ago and i love it. It works If you follows the instructions
I have one. You're supposed to beat the eggs and water together - it does say so in the instructions :P
I use it two to three times a week - no complaints at all.
Barry why didn't you just whisk the egg and water together 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
check out 17:00 until the end. He did it there (although it was beetroot juice, not water), seemed to go better
Came here for this comment... glad i wasn't the only one who facepalmed at that
When you put 2 tablespoons of tomato paste in the machine I laughed.... because that was never going to work.
Barry is exactly who should beta test “non-consumer friendly” products like this
I've had a lot of experience in a professional italian kitchen with an industrial machine, and this is exactly what one of those are like. It looks like it was just user error, so I'd love to see you make another video with this to try again!
I had a pasta machine similar to this many years ago. It was great! With a small kitchen and no space to roll, fresh pasta became a reality. Definitely have to beat the eggs, preferably with the water. Reading instructions before hand and having everything ready is also a massive help. Got mine at a close out store so it was about $25 rather than the nearly $100 it would have cost in a store. would love to have another. also, i've never seen a pasta video that was only egg and flour.
The way it works is it spins one way first to mix and then changes direction to extrude. Very simple concept really.
I have one of these. I’m not a food “expert” like you, but I have never had any of these problems.. mainly because I can follow instructions
I can't believe how much this channel has grown in the last 2 years I've been watching.
iv got 1had it for a year or 2 and its the best pasta i have ever had. but you do have to be spot on with your amounts
Is it only me that gets so annoyed at him not using these gadgets correctly?
He used to try. Now it just seems like he's putting on a show for the camera. Used to be much more entertaining
him and others. while entertaining at times, people watch to find out how they work and if they'd be worth the expense.
I think he does try. He wants to see what the machine can do. It is very expensive so he might as well try everything.
he does it for show, it's really clear
You didnt even say what he did wrong. He told us the instructions. If what he did was wrong then the instructions were wrong
I have this machine and it's amazing. I like how you're judging a machine based on using it incorrectly. :)
Glad EditBarry made you come back and try again.
I have both of the kitchen aid pasta attachments; the roller and the one for shapes. They both work fabulously. This was painful to watch! 🤣
i feel like when you tried to help the machine you hindered it, and as a result when it didnt work as expected you blamed the machine, i didnt see an honest by the book run of the machine (whisked egg mixture added slowly to just flour)
Emmymadeinjapan got this to work just fine. READ instructions.
Not the same machine tho.
Emmy tends to excel in all areas. You're not being fair to Barry here 😜
my dad every Christmas usual got my mom a set of dishes or pots and pans never anything she really wanted so one year she kept talking about wanting an electric typewriter and so my dad got her one and he wrapped it and us kids got her some paper and wrapped that she kept telling me she knew what was there a set of dishes and a table cloth lol boy was she surprised in a good way lol that was the only year I think my dad fooled her on what he got her for Christmas lol they were married for 58 years
I’m here for Barry’s chaotic energy tbh 😂
Literally everyone in the comments ripping Barry to shreds 😂😂😂
It's interesting to read the comments and realise others are also irritated by the instructions not being followed. Partner and I repeatedly shouting at the TV 😅
Becauseoflisa he did by the end, if you watched the clip after the credits
Barry: Its really really confusing
*flicks through pages at speed*
Barry: I kinda don’t trust it
Me: 🤗 hehe I’m ready for this 😂
Loving the little bonus clip at the end 😁
Thank you. I would have missed that otherwise.
reading is power, i guess. manuals are there for a reason!
That machine is my only hope of ever making home made pasta, with 3 different conditions affecting my joints and connective tissues, I don’t have a chance in heck of making a firm enough pasta dough. I tried several times, but just couldn’t do it and the attempts caused me weeks of problems afterwards. So this machine really can make a difference, at some point, I just have to have one❣️❣️❣️👏👍🙌🌱🧑🎤💚☺️
You add flour in 1st., then mix your flavour mixed with the egg 2nd. Mine works perfectly.
Techmoan did a video about this (it's actually called the Philips Viva Pasta Maker) almost exactly two years ago, you can watch it, he struggled a bit too, although he read the instructions properly :P But jokes aside, although it seems a bit fiddly to use this machine I'd love to have it, it would make spaghetti nights a bit more special...
I remember Techmoan doing a video on one of these machines (same model I think!!), but he wasn't as hyped about it though, and he did read the instructions properly, but you had fun at least and that's what matters... :P
I have that pasta maker and it works amazingly once you figure it out
Just sitting here wishing that he tried one more time with the proper flour and egg/water amounts but scrambled... and I almost missed it because he played the Barry Goes Bye-Bye Rap before the edit in.
Laughing at "Barry Goes Bye-Bye Rap" 🤣
Barry Penne are hollow that's why it's two parts so you can CLEAN it.
I’m a bit late to the party but my husband bought me windscreen wipers for my car and a bath mat with matching toilet mat for Christmas one year. Let’s just say I’ve never let him forget it!!!!!
Never stop doing things your way Barry. Sod all these ‘read the instructions and it will work’ people, where is the joie de vivre, the panache, the verve of doing things that way. Here’s to a 2020 of machines on fire, gummed up beyond repair with ingredients, and the long 1000 yard stare of Mrs Barry walking to yet another disaster zone for our entertainment.
instead of a how to video this was more of a how NOT to video! LOL
LOL...exactly!
My favourite homemade noodles are probably spätzle. There is just something about them that can't be beaten (in my mind at least), and its the one my dad would occasional do.
For who don't know, Spätzle are egg-noodles, with sometimes a hint of nutmeg in the dough (otherwise egg water, some salt and flour like usual). The dough itself is.. more wet and sticky, if I had to describe it. And kneeding it is good for getting rid of some agression :p
Afterwards, you either can kinda scrabe it in the pot (but my Dad could never do that), or use something that looks (can be) a potato ricer. There is a third method, but I am not quiet sure of its translation. its kinda like a mandoline for it. That is the one we use.
Just cook them for a short time, they are thicker, and float to the top. You get them out and if you are fancy (be fancy), fry them up in butter. Maybe some onion.. some cheese.. Just soooo good.
I have one of these machines. It works really well for basic pasta. I've never tried adding veg or other pastes to it, so maybe that's the issue. I love it when I need fresh pasta versus dried.
We still have an unopened rice cooker that was a wedding gift 24 years ago. Eventually I'll probably give it to a charity shop.
Why wait so long to donate by that point it might be worth money on Ebay
Better question why arent you using it rice cookers are amazing
I’d of beat the egg before pouring in? Also added it to the flour straight away to make sure the machine give it plenty of needing?
You seem to deliberately sabotage some items by not reading instructions.
I think it's more that when Napoleon said "Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." he was speaking of Barry Lewis.
Barry only put in 5 strands of separated spaghetti and still managed to make more than he put in.
Spaghetti doesn't follow the rules of physics confirmed.
Sidenote of Philips design: I love how the boxes have the same design format whether it's either a pasta maker or a CPAP machine...
You had way too much fun with this!! Love it!!!
My boyfriend actually gave me both of your cookbooks for Christmas. Definitely a gift I wanted and Love!
My husband has bought me some AWESOME off the wall Christmas gifts.
One year he bought me my own soldering iron - I was training at the time to make stained glass.
Another year he bought me a wooden filing cabinet - I’m a writer and I needed somewhere to store/file my notebooks, story outlines, drafts and research notes.
One of the funniest however, he was at the time an IT manager for a very popular UK chocolate brand. All Christmas stock is made well in advance and so is Easter chocolates. So he said I can GUARANTEE a you never had this for Christmas before and probably never will again... my gift for Christmas was an Easter Egg and a chocolate bunny! My parents found this hilariously funny and told EVERYONE they know... lol
I do miss him working for willy wonka, the staff shop was AWESOME!
Many years ago, I had s Ron Popeil (infomercial czar) version very similar to this, and it worked beautifully.
It seems it has a built-in timer or something when you put the ready made pasta in it still needs time to mix, then it'll push it out.
Rememebr it doesn't just automatically push it out when put individual ingrediants in.
Putting in ready made is just going to over need the pasta even more.
Pasta extruders work by forcing the mixture through the holes, the mix would normally be a grainy dry texture as once it’s forced through it brings the dough together, so you can’t have a wet mix or a hand made dough added to the machine as it’ll be too wet....
Barry your so amazing I’ve been watching you for ages love you so much keep uploading . Thanks😀
Hello...this may help. Measure the flour into the larger plastic cup and level it off...dump that flour into the machine's basin...turn power on. Now, in the smaller plastic cup that comes with the machine, place your raw egg...stir it...now with that egg still in that cup..add the water to the proper level mark....Now, slowly pour that egg & water mixture through the slits/holes in the lid of the machine, again AFTER you have dumped the flour in and the flour is being mixed. Have a lightly floured pan or plate ready to receive the pasta...as the pasta is "extruded" out the "dye" (the disc thing) cut it to desired length...about 10-12 inches.The machine will stop when it's done...you may be able to set the machine on "extrude only" if that's an option if you still have dough in the machine. I have a Philips pasta maker too but the larger one...these pasta makers for home use are all basically the same. You can freeze the pasta but place it in a ridged container so it doesn't get broken into a million little pieces when it's frozen or smushed. Have you sauce of choice already before you cook the pasta. To cook pasta, bring a pot of water to a boil, then add salt (no oil)...place pasta in the pot of boiling salted water for maybe 3 to 4 minutes...Homemade pasta cooks very fast compared to the hard-dried pasta from the grocery stores. Nothing better than homemade pasta! I add in garlic granules and dried parsley when the machine is turning the pasta dough....there are any number of creative things you can come up with!
Frank Spencer/The generation game come to mind...
I hope you and your family are well!
I LOVE watching ALL your videos!
I honestly didn’t know how easy it was to make homemade pasta! I will DEFINITELY try this with my mum at home! It might be a little tricky as I am almost blind but I’ll find a way around it and maybe find a couple of tricks to make it easier fir me as I usually so!
CANNOT wait for your next video!!I hope you and your family have a wonderful Thursday and a lovely weekend when it comes!! ;)
Aren't you supposed to beat the egg and water mixture? i see photos in the manual as such!
I´m smelling a dose it Pasta episode with Ashens
OMG we got a 1980’s RONCO pasta maker... yeah the “as seen on tv” one... we used it constantly for like 4 months and then the plastic let go... I mean, 30+ year old plastic right......... we had picked it up at a second hand store for a whopping $7cdn! I’d love one of these new ones but haven’t been able to find one in our budget... they make great pasta really fast... and fun for kids!
You have to imagine that he was also like this with the first girl he was ever with. Hyped up, didn't know the proper sequence of events, but successful after multiple failed attempts.
Does everybody go through that though..?LOL At least, with that half the fun IS trying to figure out how everything works and trying to get everything just right! Like in most things in life but especially so in this case...Practice makes perfect!
My worst Christmasgift I think I've ever gotten was not bad, just hillarious. I got a cookbook with pictures. Like, where you got an instruction and there was a picture to show you how to do it.
I got this book from a family-member when I was on my last year of chef-school😅
I have a pasta maker similar to it . I can ( and do make 12 different kinds ) The mixtures are picky . Too dry or wet , won't work . On mine I soak the pasta die ( macaroni , shells , etc . ) in hot water while making the dough . Then I take out the die and give a quick spray of cooking oil out of th can on the back side of it . Wipe it off and see if it works . If not just reverse the spin and try wetter or dryer until it is happy . great stuff man and a great price for it too ! My lasagna die is a flat line across . The die s yall leave overnight to dry then use the brush to clean most out , then wash them .
I got home and my phone buzzed
YES BARRY UPLOADED
Try using just the yolk of the egg for your pasta. It makes it slightly firmer and changes the flavour to be much creamier.
Everyone's coming to the comments to complain about all the things you did wrong, i honestly love the fails the most 😂
Could it be as the machine is designed to make the pasta it doesn't know what to do when you give it the pasta dough ready made - interesting idea for a gadget though, maybe not worth 3 figure hehe!
The continued adventures of never reading the manual and expecting it to work.
Get the ingredients for some cookie dough into the machine - extruded cookie bits ready to bake!
There are even actually cookie discs for it. I haven't used them, but they exist.
Even though I completely understand what you meant, After reading your comment all I can't stop myself from wondering how cookie dough would taste like and turn out, if you boiled it like pasta instead of baking it...? LOL, this will probably bother me for the rest of the day!
I FREAKIN LOVE U BARRY! U ARE SUCH AN UNDERRATED UA-camR! U DESERVE MUCH MORE RECOGNITION! SENDING LOVE FROM NYC 🍎!
The brand of this pasta machine is "Philips" and that's a Belgian brand, known for its quality. That explains the fair price, it is also known for its safety.
And also: the mould for the "lasagna" I think is actually for Canneloni. 🤔
For the record: I am not an influencer but a proud Belgian 🇧🇪😉
If you're blessed enough to own a fantastic Kitchen Aid Mixer (expensive but worth every penny), you can buy a superb pasta maker attachment.
You are supposed to mix the water and egg together. Also if you add flavoring mix into the wet ingredients or you throw the measurements off. I have seen this machine used and it worked perfectly.
That Mac and cheese thing from the last video is still the best thing I received for Xmas this year.
I mean, you probably can stick your own dough, but switch it to whatever mode is other than "Auto"?
This was stonking!
Why would you use the scissors instead of the included tool baz
I had an automatic pasta maker it’s soo good it’s a Kmart home brand and was 25$
Loved the video, keep it up!
Still looking forward to the day where Barry is actually using a machine according to it‘s manufactured purpose without him complaining that his misuse of said machine would be the machines fault...
My mum bought a pasta maker this past week for herself(Philips brand too). She tried doing it 2 days ago & failed so we'll have to try it again soon. Think she didn't put enough flour in.
11:35 If anyone ever thinks Barry doesn't want to impress his audience, he single-handedly grapples with his arch nemesis, just for us.
The thumbnail looked like you had meat mince instead of pasta, and l thought what a brilliant tip for another reason to use a pasta machine...not. 🤣
Got interested in this, searched it again and seems to work fine. Typical Baz
