Fresh Pasta Machines: A Comparison Between Domestic and Professional Models
If you’re looking for a pasta machine for home use, there are two excellent options from Philips Pasta Maker:
- The 7000 Series is the most powerful: it mixes and extrudes up to 750 grams of pasta (about 8 servings) in 10–15 minutes, with a 150–200 W motor. It’s ideal for those who want to make larger quantities and a wider variety of pasta shapes quickly and easily.
- The 5000 Series is more compact and stylish, producing between 250 and 500 grams of pasta in 10–15 minutes with an extrusion force of 725 kg. It’s perfect for regular home use and kitchens with limited space.
Want larger quantities and more shape variety? The 7000 is the best choice.
Looking for a more compact model with a refined design and medium capacity? The 5000 is ideal.
