Disk Sizing Information
The Impress! Cookie Press and our new Disk Size
We decided to finally offer a press of our own and make all of our disks designed mainly to fit our press. It’s been hard offering an “aftermarket” disk product with so many different presses out there! Offering our own press that our disks are designed to fit helps us and our customers. By doing this we could eliminate the troublesome “what disk size do I need?” question.
After a LOT of trial and error a disk size was chosen that fit not just our press but as many others as possible, including nearly everything that our former “size M” fit. Why no more size “P”? We tried and tried to find a "universal disk size" that would fit presses that took our “P” as well as our “M”, but it was futile. The gap between the two sizes cannot be bridged. A “middle-size” disk that’s small enough to fit the smaller M size bottom rings will fall through or pop out of a size P bottom ring. And if it fits the P ring it is too tight to go into the smaller M’s. Honestly, the size P was such a small portion of our business, and such a headache with people mixing up the sizes that we decided to go with just one size. We’re very sorry that this affects a number of our customers. We didn't want to burden the "P" press owners but being a very small business, we had to make a good business decision. If your press just isn't a good fit for the new disk size, we did our best to make our new press a good value for those who want to make the switch! We included 12 super cute and unique disks found only in the box set.
That said, there are a few presses that fit our size P disks that MAY still work with our new disks. The key is centering the disk in the dough at the end of a filled cookie press barrel. When you then screw the end ring on, make sure the disk stays as centered as possible to minimize any leakage. Use only SOFT easy-pressing dough and re-center as needed.
Please see the list below of presses we know we DO and DO NOT fit. We apologize for the inconvenience
***Manual Presses that have a quarter (1/4) twist and lock bottom ring (ring for disk) - will NOT work with our new sized disks.***
***If you have an Electric Press scroll down to see information regarding Electric Presses before ordering.*** You will find that information under FAQ's and More.
