Yes, the eight-inch plate is versatile enough for flour tortillas, rotis, and other flatbreads. Just keep in mind that doughs with high gluten content, like flour tortillas, may spring back slightly more than masa-based doughs.

While you can technically press dough between sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper, the included custom liners are designed to prevent sticking and ensure a clean release. They are reusable and feature a helpful sizing guide, making them the most efficient option for consistent results.

The food-safe powder coating is designed for easy maintenance. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth after use; avoid submerging the press in water or putting it in the dishwasher, as this can compromise the finish and the steel over time.

The eight-inch plate is the maximum diameter for a single press. If you prefer larger tortillas, you can press the dough to the eight-inch size and then gently roll it out further with a rolling pin, though this press is optimized for standard-sized, authentic tortillas.
