It is said that the process of kneading the buckwheat flour (from the water mixing to the kneading stage) is crucial for making delicious hand-made soba. The Ishikawa-style mixing and grinding machine, Soba No. 2, performs this important task with a quality surpassing that of human hands. Our product efficiently carries out the most challenging task in the soba-making process, which is the water mixing. There is a traditional saying in soba-making techniques: "One bowl, two rolling, three cutting." The "bowl" refers to the process of mixing buckwheat flour and water in a wooden bowl to form a dough ball, which is the water mixing. "Rolling" means to roll it thinly with a rolling pin, and "cutting" refers to cutting the rolled soba dough with a knife. The hand-made soba process can be broadly divided into three parts, arranged from the most difficult techniques: "one kneading, two rolling, three cutting." Additionally, to emphasize the difficulty, there is an expression that says, "Three days for cutting, three months for rolling, three years for the wooden bowl."
