Below is a detailed guide that walks you through making fresh and dried wheat noodles at home in India, what small equipment you’ll need, basic small-scale machine components if you want to step up production, and a few Indian suppliers for machines and raw materials you can contact. 1) Quick overview — home-friendly method Basic Wheat Noodles (vegetarian, no eggs) — simple, low-cost, easy to scale a little by hand. Good as fresh or air-dried noodles. I’ll give step-by-step recipes and production tips for both, then cover equipment, small machinery for scaled production, suppliers, storage, and hygiene/food-safety notes. 2) Method — Basic wheat noodles (simple, low cost) Yield: ~1 kg flour gives ~0.85–0.9 kg finished noodles (fresh). Ingredients (for ~1 kg flour batch): Maida / all-purpose flour: 1 kg Salt: 12–15 g (about 1.2–1.5% of flour) Cooking oil (vegetable) or melted shortening: 20–30 g (2–3% of flour) — improves dough handling and texture Water: 350–420 ml (35–42% hydration) — adjust to get a firm but pliable dough Optional: a little semolina/sooji (50–100 g) blended with maida for bite Why these proportions? Home wheat noodles are typically firmer (lower hydration) than pasta — 35–42% water gives a workable dough that rolls thin without sticking. Salt and oil help texture and shelf life slightly. 3) Step-by-step (hand / kitchen method): a) Weigh & mix dry ingredients. In a large bowl, combine 1..

Transfer paper printing (Laser or Inkjet): Print one design on transfer paper, then use a heat press to transfer it onto Blends, cotton, or polyester. This method is suitable for low- to medium-volume, full-color customization. 3)..
