- How to use you Hamilton Beach popcorn popper. All you need: 1 TBL Spoon Oil. 1/2 - 3/4 cup popcorn seeds. Plug in machine, add oil, let it warm for 2 min, add kernels, cover, and in about 2 min you'll have fresh popcorn. This popcorn maker machine is super easy to use and provides a much healthier option than microwave popcorn. Plus, it's done in about the same time. The only difference is you have a small machine to clean up instead of the unhealthy chemicals and junk in the microwave bags. Add some butter to holes on top to let it drip in while it cooks. Or just add your own melted butter afterward. UPDATE: I'm told this machine works great for roasting coffee beans. I've never tried it, but it makes perfect sense.
Oh my goodness! Thank you! You saved the night. I could not find my directions.... 🙏
love it! So glad to help.
Very helpful thank you
These are the best. the Betty Crocker one is built cheep. Though I have not compared the priciing.
A+ my friend. This one is running strong.
Mine burns the corn and pop like 3 seeds. Im.wondering whats wrong
I follow those steps and I get tons of unpopped kernels :( cannot figure out how to get all the kernels to pop.
If the machine is working (heating correctly) AND your kernels are fresh, then you should get a good batch. But YES... you'll always have a few that don't pop.
Coconut is a must.
I actually haven't tried coconut oil with popcorn. We have it in the cupboard. I'll have to test it.
@@thanethebrain There is no better fat on the planet for making popcorn than coconut oil, gives popcorn the distinctive and decadent aroma, also the flavor of butter without using actual butter.
@@lewisway6811 My wife is in 14 day quarantine... I guess it's a perfect time to try!
@@thanethebrain Wishing the best for her, also don't forget the Flavacol Popcorn Season Salt.
I tried to cook tunafish with this device and was very disappointed. I believed that the stirring action would help achieve a very uniform cook but it was not successful. Next time I will not add the coffee beans to the tunafish, perhaps the beans were to moist.
I hope you were aiming for tuna casserole. The rotating bar would make a mess of tuna! haha
@@thanethebrain It was terrible, I still do not understand what the coffee beans were for. The tuna burned and created a crust while the inner tuna smear and seared to the metal arms. Later on after I thought it was clean my grandson tried to make popcorn and I hadn't cleaned it well enough, I could smell if from the den but he was oblivious to the smell. It only took a few handfuls and he became disgusted by it. My wife is also very upset.
@@shawn8054 How in the world did you decide to cook Tuna? Sounds like a stretch.
@@thanethebrain I had intended to create tuna croquettes. The arms created a spread or smearing result, there was little stretching. It was a mistake I will never make again, I will likely stick to more traditional cooking methods in the future if for no other reason than to stay out of trouble. My wife reminds me daily of my blunder and I cannot emotionally handle any more failures.
Does your popcorn ever taste chewy using that? I have one, and everytime I've used it the popcorn is never crispy.
I always seem to get good popcorn. I suggest you try different oil and/or kernels?
@@thanethebrain I've tried a couple of different brands of both kernels and oils. I did notice that doing it your way improved the taste. I would put the kernels in immediately and then plug in the popper.
@@clydenoel4243 My French relative once gave me this hing about cooking... and I think the same can be said for popping kernels... "When in doubt, add more butter!"
Thanks for sharing.
This is helpful. Wonder if it’ll work for coffee bean roasting
I've been told this is a perfect machine for coffee!!
@@thanethebrain please make a vid roasting Coffee Beans 🙏
Can you use it with out oil?
I think you need some oil to help the kernels get hot fast and pop. If you don't use oil, I think kernels will scorch and burn and not pop very well.
I've used the same measurements and I only have a few popped ones
uh oh... it's possible your unit isn't heating up enough. Or if the kernels are REALLY old, maybe they are bad? But it's probably the machine.
@@thanethebrain thanks for the advice! I bought my kernals a day before, so it is probably the machine!
Yes, same problem with me. It appears is a common problem with these machines...
Same as Stir Crazy.
After 10 cycles wont work anymore. A common problem if look in the internet. Really bad design
bummer my friend. My machine has held up well.
I just bought mine off of Amazon but based on some of the comments and reviews I chose the extra 2 year warranty for five dollars!
Absolutely the worst popcorn popper that we have ever had, tried all kinds of different popcorn with the same results, DID NOT POP!!!!!
Ken Knopp oh man... sad to hear. Was it user error? Question: was this the ONLY popcorn maker you ever bought? If so , that means it was also the absolute BEST popcorn popper you ever bought as well. Lol
Thane Walton we have had a lot of air poppers and my wife really likes popcorn so I got her one like in your video and every time we try to use it again it is very disappointing. I have has much more success with a cast iron fry pan. we have tried many different kinds of popcorn with no success, not sure what is wrong.
@@kenknopp5327 Follow step by step, Ken. I know it will work.
You are right. Mine is not working anynore. It just heat at max for 20secs and thats all. Everytime is just worst. Send it to warranty...
