Product Information
Full details
The Vogue 5-Wheel Dough Cutter is an essential precision tool for professional pastry chefs and bakers who need to create uniform strips of dough quickly and efficiently. Its primary benefit is the ability to maintain perfectly consistent cutting widths across multiple rows, significantly reducing prep time for items like pasta or pastry squares. A key caveat to note is that because of its wide expansion capability up to 490 mm, users must ensure the locking mechanism is securely tightened before use to prevent the wheels from shifting during heavy-duty cutting tasks.

Troubleshooting
The cutting wheels are shifting during use.

The wheels are dragging or tearing the dough.
Check the wheels for any dried dough buildup and ensure they are properly cleaned; check that the dough is at the correct temperature (slightly chilled dough works best).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the cutter, loosen the tension screw at the end of the shaft to expand or contract the wheels to your desired measurement. Once set, tighten the screw to lock the blades in place. For maintenance, the cutter should be hand-washed with mild detergent and warm water immediately after use to prevent dough residue from hardening on the blades. Ensure the device is completely dry before storage to maintain the integrity of the hardware. The tool is compatible with most standard dough types, including shortcrust, puff pastry, and fresh egg pasta sheets.
