- If you are in the market for a new popcorn maker, then you're in the right place. This is an electric hot oil popcorn popper. A motorized rod on the base rotates to agitate the kernels and prevent the kernels from burning. Watching this popcorn maker is a very visually pleasing process! This Betty Crocker version is very similar to the Stir Crazy and Popflix models. This is a great alternative to cooking your popcorn in the microwave or using the stove top method. We picked up this particular model at Canadian Tire.
I love how you can flip it into its own bowl too! With some of the other old-school ones that just spit the popcorn out I feel like it gets cold before you can melt the butter on it all, this one looks like it keeps everything nice and hot until your ready to eat and its all done! Nice
Nice video, `cept, could you give approx. amounts of how much oil, and kernels are you using? I like your butter generosity too.😉🥰 Thanks much.
Awesome review! I agree I’m not a huge fan of microwave popcorn either. I like your honesty instead of saying it’s great and perfect you say to melt butter elsewhere. I respect that . All in all I think this is pretty cool!! Left you a like 🌟 happy holidays!
how much oil and kernals? I don't have the instruction booklet
Great review guys! I feel like I need this popcorn maker with all these Netflix and streaming movie night sessions 😋❤
Avocado and olive oil work great too 😊
Why do you guys use oils?

It is really very helpful and useful review. It works very well and it is very interesting. Enjoy the full tutorial. 💕💞💖
I have one of these popers and love it mic corn nada
Microwave popcorn is HORRIBLE. Ever notice how your mouth feels weird after eating it? I don't get that with naturally popped corn. I picked up one of these (the Popflix brand) new at a liquidation place for like $16.50 (60%, pff) regular $39.99 at Walmart, because that's what this place carries, is mostly Walmart stuff.I got sick of my old school air popper, with it's spout headaches of firing popcorn and kernals all over the kitchen, no matter what I did. So I saw this cool thing and though"hey, at least it's contained!" lol. I was wondering about the butter dispenser thing and how well it worked, I have my doubts and you answered them. I figured as much, just melt elsewhere and distribute more evenly. I see people leave that lid off even in Popflix own instructional short video and it seems like it acts as a steam escape and I did see steam trying to escape yours, from there and from around the bottom where the lid/bowl meets the base.
Just wondering if that excess steam makes the popcorn wet? Can't wait to test it, but I want to get some ghee and coconut oil and try those as the oil needed for these machines. Refined coconut oil has a high smoke point over 400 - 450F and clarified butter (ghee) is 485F So, more than suitable for it and already butter. The secret to movie theater popcorn (aside from all the artificial trash they put in it flavorcol) is coconut oil. That's why it's so rich tasting and it works well for theaters, because it's a shelf stable oil without refrigeration. The problem is, their coconut oil is coloured and such and has artificial flavours and garbage in it. But, if you want to replicate it even better than movie theater, just use "refined" plain coconut oil, not cold pressed.
The smoke point is higher with refined and only refined should be used for these machines, because they warn you against using anything other than vegetable oil (which is B.S., it's only because of it's high smoke point which many other oils and ghee can easily match). Even light tasting olive oil, I suspect works and was almost going to try it, because it has a high smoke point (it's basically refined extra virgin) and very neutral taste. But now that I've researched, I think I will go exclusively the coconut oil or ghees route. I really like the ghee idea and people online say it works great with these machine, and if you so choose, use it as topper too. It's great as a topper too because it lacks the solids and moisture regular butter has. (so you don't get soggy popcorn) But I also want to try refined coconut oil.
What's the oil for, make the seeds move around the bottom easier? and/or stop burning?
1:45 right cause the butter would just drip on the top popcorn, and if you watch the top popcorn kind stays put.
makes sense.
I'm interested in buying this and that was what I wanted to know. thank you.
Y’all smoke weed?
Great review 👍
Thank you for the video..
the top isnt for melting butter its to vent the hot air it says so in the instructions :)
I think you misread the instructions. That reservoir is definitely for adding butter. As per the instructions, page 6, and 8.
If you are not melting butter you need to keep the lid off when popping. I always use avocado oil also.
Very helpful 👌
GreAt review
Can I pop without oil?
You didnt recommend it or give it a score or say it was good even. Not really a review. It's listed for $49.99 now. Can I use beef tallow or bacon fat instead of vegetable oil?
What happens if you just use butter as the oil in the first place? Will it burn?
Yes
Can lard work?
YOU CAN NOT LEAVE THE BLACK LID ON WHILE COOKING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These are fun to watch and I liked when I had a roommate that owned one but they get nasty and obviously can't be submerged so they are hard to clean. I think a regular air popper is better because you don't need oil and they take up less cupboard space.
we need more drunken cooking shows
hahaha wait.... what?! 10 tbsp's of butter?
And why dirty two bowls??
Also, try using room temp butter for better melting. But i doubt 10 tbsp's will fit in that tray. Sheesh.
Look up Jeanie B Delicious on TH-cam. 😂😂😂😂😂. You could be her kid!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Veg oil????????? Nooooch!!! Coconut is so much better.
betty bit the bisket after 4 uses
