Flour, eggs and milk the one I did IIRC. Get a gadget, it's hard work without one as the mix gets more viscous and elastic the longer you take. At a pinch you can push it through the holes in the bottom of a stainless steamer/colander. Or maybe (not yet tried this) use the large holed plate in a potato ricer. As for the washing up, get someone else to do it. It sticks to everything rather tenaciously

Buy a press.
I have tried collanders, graters, mashers and all other bits and bobs with holes in 
You need a press or the Knockn grater - it is just too messy otherwise; in fact, it is stupidly messy anyway!

For valentines day mrs joe got me a spätzel maker!
I've got the one that's like a pan lid with holes in.
It worked well though I put too much mix on it the first go and they started cooking before I managed to push it all through.
Worked a treat though. I used the recipe that came with the device but I can't remember it at all.
As an aside my local coop supermarket keep the crispy onions that go on top if käsespatzle if anyone wants to add that extra crunchy treat.

Friend of mine used a plastic bag with a hole cut out the corner and a pair of scissors. Squeezed the mix through with one hand and cut it every so often with the scissors in his other hand as it dropped in to the pan.

My missus (German) uses a Spätzlepresse. Makes the goo in a mixing bowl. Puts a dollop in the press. Presses into a saucepan filled with water on a rolling boil. Fishes out with a holed ladle into a bowl with a drain off and lid. Repeat until all goo gone. Usually served with roast, veg and homemade gravy. It is a bit of a faff but then so is her potato salad. And they are both delish. We've bought the packet stuff on occasion. It's OK but as you would expect not quite as good as the made fresh. Kids love it.

Try a potato ricer - works a treat for me!

You know it makes sense.

Convert, bought one of them.. with the idea that they were more than half the price of the press... didn't work.. just made a mess..
However, i am normally prepping them for 13 people!

You definitely need a spätzlepress, and try and see if you can find a bierkase to use.
A lot of people just use emmental and it´s nowhere near as good.

flangesax, I admit it, I do secretly sniff the wrappers and have been told to keep my bierkäse out on the balcony a few times
