5.0 out of 5 stars Works great, and still working great after 6 months of use, January 6, 2009

This review is from: Imusa VICTORIA-85008 Victoria Cast Iron Tortilla Press, 8-Inch (Kitchen)
I started making my own corn tortillas, and at first used a glass pie pan (put dough inbetween two pieces of zip lock plastic, and then squash with the pie plate.) I would have to press hard, and rotate the round pie dish to get the dough to squish out to the right size/thickness. It worked well, but I was afraid I would break the glass dish and cut myself I had to use so much pressure. It was sort of a rocking swirling motion to get it to press out right. It worked, but I had to lean on the plate too much. I had used a skillet bottom, but you couldn't see how big/thin the tortilla was, so if you don't buy this, try a pyrex pie pan on two plastic sheets of ziplock material.

My husband purchased this press for me, and it is so easy to use. I use two pieces of ziplock plastic, cut to fit the press, and my flour (Masa Harina) has a recipe on the back for 4, 8 and 12 torillas. These make balls about the size of a ping pong ball or golf ball. They squeeze out perfectly... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Makes Excellent Tortillas, December 27, 2008
By 
Caymus (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Imusa VICTORIA-85008 Victoria Cast Iron Tortilla Press, 8-Inch (Kitchen)
This is an excellent tortilla press. We just recieved one and yes, it is a bit greasy out of the box, but this is not a hinderance. It made very flat, thin, and (most importantly) consistently good tortillas.

In order to avoid contact with the grease (which there from the manufacturing process to prevent the cast iron from rusting - not necessarily a bad thing), we took a 1 gallon Ziploc bag (food grade plastic) and cut it at the seams to create two pieces of plastic. We then trimmed the plastic sheets to be slightly larger than the press. This works wonderfully, we only need to peel the pressed tortilla from the plastic sheet and lay it in to the griddle.

We would recommend this press to anyone interested in making their own tortillas, sopes, or other dishes requiring use of a press.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great for me!, November 23, 2008
By 
This review is from: Imusa VICTORIA-85008 Victoria Cast Iron Tortilla Press, 8-Inch (Kitchen)
The one I received had little grease on it, not that it would have bothered me much anyway.

It also presses the tortillas paper thin. In fact, I had to be careful not to get them too thin at first.

Recommend lining each side with plastic when pressing. Then transfer pressed tortilla to a piece of wax paper then onto the grill. That's just the easiest way we found to tranfer them.

Served warm with some queso fresca - yum!
