USING YOUR STIR CRAZY® POPCORN MAKER
1. Place the base on a dry, level surface, away from any edge.
2. Put vegetable oil and corn into the popping base. Spread corn evenly over popping surface.
Do not substitute butter, margarine, shortening, or lard for vegetable oil as these will burn
or smoke excessively. Do not add more corn or oil than recommended. Specialty oils may
be used, but some experimentation may be necessary to find the best popping results and
flavor you prefer. Do not use more than 3 tablespoons of any oil.
**If using a gourmet/premium grade of corn, use less than amount of corn specified.
3. Place the cover on the popping base, making sure the handles of the cover fit securely into
the handles of the popping base. If buttered corn is desired, divide recommended amount
of refrigerated butter into 6 equal-sized pats and place in a single layer in the butter well.
Snap the butter lid on top of the butter well. Popcorn will be buttered as it pops.
4. Plug the cord into a 120 volt, AC electric outlet only. Press the "
"ON". The stir rod will rotate as long as the corn popper is on. Do not shake popper during
popping cycle. In 4 to 5 minutes, the popping cycle will be completed. Press the "
power button to turn "OFF".
5. If butter is not completely melted in butter well, use a pastry brush to push any remaining butter
through the buttering holes. Snap butter lid securely back onto the butter well. This cap must be
on the cover before the popper is inverted.
6. Make sure handles of cover are placed into handles of popper base. Using hot pads or
oven mitts, grasp handles firmly and turn popper upside down, turning popper away from
you. Lift popper base away from cover, being careful to avoid escaping steam. Always turn
the popper away from you, over a countertop, so that residual hot oil or hot condensation
running out will not cause burns. Tip: Popcorn is done when there is a 1-2 second pause
between pops or if the cover has lifted or is turning. To avoid scorching, follow step 6 as
soon as popping cycle is complete.
7. Popcorn is now ready for serving. Sprinkle popcorn with salt if desired.
Popping Additional Batches of Popcorn - If you plan to pop more corn immediately, transfer
popcorn from serving cover to another serving bowl. Wipe the interior of the bowl and butter
lid to remove excess condensation. Follow steps 2 through 6 above.
• A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of
manufacturing oils – this is normal.
• Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling – this is
normal.
