HELPFUL TIPS

POPCORN
The 2.5 OZ. STAINLESS STEEL POPCORN CART is designed for all regular and
premium brands of popping corn. Yellow corn generally pops better than white
corn, while some brands of kernels have a harder outer shell and may result in
fewer popped kernels. Try different brands to find which you like best.
Always use fresh popcorn. Dried out, stale, or old popcorn pops poorly
as it has lost its moisture content and may scorch. We recommend
storing popcorn in an airtight container in a cool place.
Occasionally popcorn does not pop. This is usually the result of environmental factors
sush as freshness and moisture content of the popcorn, or variances of popcorn
type. Unpopped kernels do not necessarily indicate a defect in the appliance.
When filling the Kernel Measuring Cup, make sure to not fill above
the marked line. Underfilling can cause less kernels to pop and more
unpopped kernels to come out of the unit. Overfilling can cause popped
corn to burn and smoke, as it will over fill the Popping Chamber.
SMOKING
If your 2.5 OZ. STAINLESS STEEL POPCORN CART begins to smoke during
cooking, it may be due to grease build up. In order to reduce smoking,
make sure that you clean the inside of the Kettle between uses.

5. Let the Kettle sit for 15 – 20 minutes to cut the grease. (Time may vary – use
your own judgment depending on the amount of cleaning necessary)
6. Empty water. If necessary, use the scrubber side of a
cleaning sponge to scrub inside of Kettle.
7. Rinse inside carefully and dry.
8. Wipe outside of Kettle with damp cloth and dry.
NOTE: To protect the motor plug from getting wet, never immerse the Kettle in
any liquid. Never place any parts in the dishwasher. Always wash by hand.
