MELTING BUTTER: Use the measuring scoop / butter melter to melt 3 tablespoons
of butter to drizzle over the popped corn. Use softened butter or margarine only as
refrigerator or hard butter will not melt during the popping process. The melted butter
should be added to the popped corn in a separate bowl and NEVER while corn is still
in the popping reservoir.
5.
Place a heat-resistant bowl under the popping chute to collect the popped corn.
Depending on the type of kernel or corn used, one batch may yield up to 5 quarts
of popped corn, so it may be necessary to switch to a second bowl during the
popping process, if using a 4-quart bowl. Never operate unattended.
6.
Plug into a 120V outlet, preferably on a separate outlet from other appliances to
prevent the circuit from being overloaded.
7.
Move the switch to the ON position. Popping will be complete in approximately
two to three minutes.
8. When popping is complete, move the switch to the OFF position and unplug the
cord from the outlet.
9. Some popped corn or unpopped kernels may remain in the popping reservoir.
Make sure all popping has stopped before removing the upper cover and
measuring scoop. Using hot pads or oven mitts, carefully remove the upper
cover and pour any remaining corn, including unpopped kernels, into the bowl.
IMMEDIATELY replace upper cover, as the cover has heated during the popping
process and if it cools while in an uneven position, it may not properly t into the
groove on the popper.
10.
Drizzle melted butter and sprinkle salt over popped corn, if desired.
11. Before popping another round, check the popping reservoir and make sure it is
empty. Using hot pads or oven mitts, remove the upper cover, turn the popper
base upside down over a countertop or container, and remove any remaining
kernels. Wash and dry measuring scoop and properly replace on upper cover. If
popping a second batch, be sure the popping reservoir is completely empty and
only use fresh kernels.
CAUTION: On occasion, a hot unpopped kernel may be thrown from the popping
chute. DO NOT pick it up, as it will be hot. To avoid contact with hot kernels,
keep your face and hands, as well as children and pets, at least 40 inches away
from the popping chute while operating popper.
