Usage

• Setup:

  • Place the popcorn machine on a flat, stable surface.
  • Ensure that the machine is plugged into a suitable electrical outlet.

• Preparation:

  • If applicable, lightly coat the popping chamber with a small amount of cooking oil or non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for oil type and quantity.
  • Measure out the popcorn kernels according to the machine’s capacity guidelines. Avoid overfilling to ensure proper popping.

  • Pour the popcorn kernels into the popping chamber or bowl, depending on the design of the machine. Close the lid securely.

• Popping:

  • Allow the machine to operate until the popping slows down significantly. This typically takes a few minutes, depending on the quantity of kernels and the machine’s power.
  • Do not open the lid during the popping process to maintain proper temperature and avoid burns from steam.

• Completion:

  • Once the popping slows to a few seconds between pops, turn off the machine and unplug it from the outlet.
  • Carefully open the lid and remove the popped popcorn. Use a spatula or scoop if necessary to avoid burning yourself.

• Cleaning:

  • Allow the machine to cool before cleaning.
  • Wipe down the non-stick popping chamber with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the non-stick coating.
  • Clean the lid and any other removable parts as per the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Storage:
