Impeccable Culinary Objects (ICO) ICO033 Tortilla Press, Cast Iron

It was easy to use. It made very nice tortillas

I was after a tortilla press but I was a bit skeptical about which one to buy based on reviews of several brands (most reviews were mixed). I strayed away from cheap ones and decided to spend a bit more and go for cast iron.I’m happy with my purchase of the ICO one. I’ve used it several times to make corn masa tortillas for tacos (usually 10 cm size) which it does quite well and makes light of the job. I’ve not tried any other kind of dough.This is unseasoned cast iron, so it came with some protective paper - this wasn’t much use because my dough stuck to it, however it works fine using non-stick baking paper

The media could not be loaded. Crap handle snapped first time i used it

I've never used one of these before but it has transformed my tortillas & rôtis. So quick & easy to use.I bought this for making rôtis & haven't used it for a while because I'm now on a low carb diet. I was craving nachos when making some with bought tortilla chips for my son so I looked up a keto recipe for tortillas & made some using this to get the dough thin enough. It worked brilliantly.I have also made keto wraps for sausages as an alternative to hot dogs.The only drawback is that it only comes with 2 paper circles. Now I need more. I tried silicon liner as an eco alternative but it's too thick. To get thin, even tortillas & rôtis it needs greaseproof paper or baking parchment.So glad I bought it.

Worked well ad better than other cheap versions I've used.However on the second time out of the cupboard the handle snapped under stress. Not applied a huge amount of force and unfortunately did cut my finger quite badly.

Well worth the outlay, sturdy press, should last a lifetime. As a novice to making tortillas all I would say is practice makes perfect. Great tool.

Really poor. Followed the cleaning instructions. Within an hour a small rust spot appeared. Made sure it was dry again, within 4/5 hours the whole press was riddled with rust.****Update**** after the seller contacted me and really bent over backwards to help I received a replacement and was given some care advice.A few weeks and a few uses later and I think I have it cracked.I recommend regular oiling as this should stop any rust from occurring. I also recommend buying one of those bbq grill sheets and cutting two discs. Put your dough ball in between them that way no dough should touch the press and the beauty of the grill sheets is that you can then put them straight on the pan. Why? Well one issue with the dough is that it is very elastic and will retract and shrink in size and you end up with a tiny thicker tortilla. If you put the discs straight on the pan the tortilla or flatbread will stay that size and be thin.It’s not perfect as they can be a little feathery round the edges, but for the speed I can get them done I can live with that.Again oil regularly and avoid too much contact with water.

Purchased for son-in-law as a birthday present. He is delighted with it.

It is very good to make tortillas, first you have to know the amount of dough to use, approximately a ping pong ball will give you a tortilla of about 4" in diameter, you must place the ball in the middle of two plastic circles and press a little to get the thickness required.Do not press all the way down. Good Luck 👍

Muy buena , todo es saber utilizarla , como consejo útil es que dejen bien suave la masa ,en poca cantidad y utilizar dos trozos de nylon para que la masa no se quede pegada en la tortillera

Does not work as described. Returned item back.

Prodotto pessimo al primo risciacquo ha fatto la ruggine non pressa bene la pasta x fare le piadine se potessi lo renderei subito

I have been making corn tortillas for the past couple years using a manual method of flattening the dough using a pie plate. This worked well but took a lot of muscle power and more time. The tortillas also couldn't be too big since I couldn't get consistent thickness.This tortilla press makes it so easy and quick to roll out the dough, just one press and the dough is flattened. I can make larger tortillas too. There is one trick I learnt to getting the tortilla thickness consistent and that is to spin the dough and press it a second time - works perfectly. Also, I used plastic to line both sides of the press which makes it easier to remove the pressed tortilla as well as cleanup is quick.Love the product, pretty sturdy although the handle seems to move a bit and the screw loosens when pressed a lot, it just needs to be retightened - simple solution.
