Are ther any issues with dough sticking to the pin?

If you continually put some flour on the surface of the rolling pin it should not stick to your dough. The rolling pin will give many years of great enjoyment in making any recipe calling for a rolling pin. this one is easy to use and has no problems.

I only make gluten free stuff, and it does stick. If I cover it with flour first, it does not. I find rice flour and starches to be a lot stickier than wheat flour.

I use all-purpose flower on my pin when I use it to flatten the dough and don't have problems.

Yes. Just use flour. It is the best pin I ever had. The dough is easily rolled out.

Not any more than any wooden rolling pin. Just sprinkle a bit of flour on it when working with sticky dough as you would with any other rolling pin

I purchased my J. K. Adams FRP-1 rolling pin for use when making pizza dough. I rub a little olive oil on it after each use before I put it away. So far, I have had no problems with sticking.

I've never had any problems with sticking. Always grease the pan (I prefer butter, oil works too) before putting the dough in. I've done sourdoughs that were allowed to sit overnight in the fridge to retard the rising, and even then they didn't stick, came right out after baking.

I do not have a problem with food sticking. I do not put it in the dishwasher, and wash by hand.

I'm not an expert chef or anything . . . but I've never had a problem with the noodles sticking to the pan. Then again I always add a little olive oil too. I love using the two handles to transfer the pasta and they pretty much stay cool.

Before buying my 5891, I read of this 'sticking paddle' problem. Since buying, what I have been doing prior to baking, is rubbing a little oil ( butter, olive oil or whatever edible lube is close at hand ) onto the stem. My paddle has not yet stuck.

The pastry cloth is great for rolling most any dough. I keep mine floured and ready. Stored in an airtight container. I must use the pin cover with some very sticky dough. Works on every rolling pin I have. The dough is so sticky it sticks to every type of naked pin. Flour both pin and cloth and happy rolling.

No, and I have used it very hard. I have processed enormous quantities of Parmesan cheese, pie crust dough and onions in multiple batches - like repeatedly 15 - 20 times, having to unlock, empty, and relock over and over, and have not had any issues.

I haven't had any sticking issues. I do not use high heat.I usually use medium to medium high heat when I am using the fry pans . This is my second set of Calphalon and both sets have been wonderful. If you continue to have sticking issues, contact Calphalon and see what they have to say.

I keep my pasta dough just as dry as possible, as dry as the machine will accept and still work. I have had no problems with sticking.When I make the dough in the processor it is still rather granular, rather dry.

Dear K. Beene....This is very tricky indeed. The most important thing is the quality of your dough. It has to have a good consistency and that means you have to have the dough very soft indeed. The best and the most ideal way to avoid the tortillas sticking to the plates, either upper or the lower one, is that you make sure that you set the temperature to the MAX and do not lift the upper plate immediately but leave it for at least 20 seconds and then lift the upper plate and having done that you will notice that the tortilla had not stuck to the plate and now the tortilla is ready to be flipped. I hope you will find this suggestion suitable and workable. I did exactly this way and it was okay. Try it and I am sure you will succeed in your efforts. Write to Amazon about your experience after applying this method......farhatullah sharif

I have not experienced this issue. I have made several cabinets and the pins are tight as expected.

I don't think it's a problem. The softness of your dough defines more the thickness of your tortillas. It's a bit more difficult with softer dough but well worth it if you want thinner tortillas. I've been using plastic wrap on both sides of the press which sticks pretty well when you squirt some water on the press before covering it.

I was concerned about the same. What is even worse I'd that my dough sticks to the basket. I was happier with an inexpensive wicker basket and a linen towel.

Simple use warm water (no soap), and air dry. Do NOT oil as this will impart a flavor into your dough (maple is a hard wood and will not absorb much oil... so it will stay on the surface). I dust mine with flower before using so the dough doesn't stick to the pin. Then a simple sip with a wet towel does the trick.

No sticking problems. If I cook something that is adhering I put some water in the pan, heat it to boiling for a few moments and then it all comes off easily. I don't think you should ask us re safety but research it on a reliable website on your own. I really like the cookware.

Ours used to also get stuck in the bread until we started a year ago spraying Pam [or store brand] onto the paddle. It has only stuck 2 out of 50 times [we make bread every week]. You can try spraying the pin where the paddle goes BEFORE you insert the paddle. That might help.

Honestly don't know...thee is a coating however, and I think it is stated in the literature I read online before ordering. My wife has had no problemwith her dough sticking ...she had alot of problems with her previous machine and that is one reason I bought the Chef's choice for her....she did experiment with her receipe...and ended up using the one that was recommended in the literature that came with her machine. Again I reiterate she is very satisfied with the chef's choice ...last batch after Christmas took 65minutes....30 to mix dough and 30-35 minutes to make.bob maggiore
