Here’s a link to my video showing what products I use to make the popcorn:
• Movie theater popcorn!...
Popcorn Biz Owner Experience here...Suggestion: Always keep your front Drop Down Tray in the open position while popping (Mine all have sides to prevent spillage) Also I keep the glass doors open to prevent chewy popcorn, my customers want it Crunchy not chewy. Steam makes it Chewy, especially if not served immediately. So, if you for some reason don't want the doors open, at least open them partially so the steam can escape.
Yeah, they need to put like metal louver type vents in them, but thatd be hard to do; n glass I guess.
I did what you mentioned so I won’t get chewy popcorn and no matter what I do I always get chewy popcorn. Can you give me step by step instructions to get crispy popcorn please and thank you.
Please can I message you on WhatsApp
@@RaquelC17Having this issue as well!! 😫😫🥺🥺
This may be the answer to my problem. I can't seem to get rid of the chewiness. I've used several brands of kernels and changed the oil ratio as well. So I'll definitely try limiting the steam!! Hoping this helps, I have an event soon. Thank you
I managed a roller skating rink and made popcorn on a daily basis. When you go to make your first batch... you just turn everything on. Wait for it to get to temperature and THEN dump in your ingredients. Once it's almost done popping, dump the popcorn while everything is still running. The stirrer will help clear the pot of popcorn. If you wait too long you risk the chance of burning your corn. Now you're ready for a 2nd batch.
Have you ever had a problem with chevy popcorn? I have a machine and I have an event soon. I've been testing it and it seems like no matter the brand or oil ratio it's chewy. 😫
I TRIED THIS AT HOME!! IT TASTES SOOOOOO GOOD !! THANK YOU FOR SHARING!!
I was watching a movie theater person make it, and they mix the salt in with the kernels before adding to the oil. I do it this way at home. My machine turns on the stirrer with the pot heater, so I have to turn them both on. However, I never thought to run warmer early, so I'll try this, thanks.
I don't have the machine, but I have just started using the coconut oil. Really makes a difference. Thanks. :)
I use a cookie dough scoop for the coconut oil, just push the side button and it releases the coconut oil into the kettle.
thats a great idea....
THANK YOU! I am having a Drive In Theater for halloween. And I’m going to be the Popcorn server, this was what I needed! 😁👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Awesome! Sounds fun!! Good luck!
am i the only one but this is entertaining to watch
some articles I’m seeing say it’s better to salt the popcorn after you pop it but I guess I’ll stop overthinking it and throw in some flavicol before popping. I just got a stir crazy but maybe I’ll upgrade one day. I’d like to see a video on how to clean your machine. Thanks dude!
I guess you could really do it either way. That would a preference I suppose. I just feel it evenly distributes the salt doing it before.
Good video for introducing inexperienced people to the popcorn machine. Nicely done.
Thanks
@Harry Harry not enough is the right answer. I live on boat and there isn't any room for one but my wife lives on land and I am trying to get her to buy one. Sadly, she hates popcorn so I am fighting a losing battle there methinks.
You video is the best… because of the shirt! 😂
I just got through making more coconut oil from a truckload of coconuts. Now to get the safflower to mix with the coconut oil. Got the Flavacol and butter ready. Usually I am putting in popcorn from the garden but I wonder if the 50 lb bag can be found in non-GMO?
We love our popper! The only problem is sometimes the popcorn comes out so strongly it pulls a lot of un-popped kernels with it
If you have a popcorn machine like the one in the video (there are several brands, all the same kind of thing) you can sift out the old maids (unpopped kernels) and recover them from the old maid tray in the bottom of the popper. Then if you like you can try to pop them again. I never bother, popcorn being so cheap I just toss what's in the old maid tray.
Thank you so much for your videos I finally decided and bought me the same machine as yours, you made it so much easier to choose I can't wait to get mine on Thursday thank you so much for your help.
pls how much does a popcorn machine cost?
@@tondojennifer2094 $213
I have a machine and buy the ready made pouches. I heat the oil til it smokes with the stirrer on but seems there is alot of waste. I will try your method
Love your Van Halen shirt 😁
You made a very helpful video keep up the good hard work
thanks for making this video. So about how much kernels would you say your adding with the 2 scoops? And how big was your measuring spoon for the salt? I made my first batch of popcorn last night with my Vevor cart style popcorn machine and it turned out tough and I was really bummed about it. I used approx 2 tbsp coconut oil and about 1/2 cup of kernels and it wasn't even enough to overflow out of the kettle when it all popped. I'm thinking that was part of my problem was just not adding enough kernels so it would force the overflow flap open and release the steam. I am thinking maybe I need to use closer to a cup of kernels. It's an 8oz kettle so what are your thoughts on this? Think it will work in making my popcorn crispier? Thanks for any advice you can offer.
This was very helpful! Thank you!
U r good at explaining things...☺😊☺
I Watched a lot of videos of how to use popcorn machine and your video is helpful thank u!
Liked the revue and bought the same machine!
That’s awesome! Thanks!
Do you have measurement for the oil popcorn and salt?
It depends on the pot size. Popcorn machines are sold by kettle size so an 8 oz kettle uses 8 oz (1 cup) of corn. Rule of thumb for oil is 1/2 the amount of the corn OR LESS, but most concessions use LESS so 1/3 cup per 8 ounces of corn. Best oil is coconut oil. So if buying a Pre-Flavored oil look for the main ingredient to be Coconut Oil. Kettle Size Amount of Oil Amount of Corn
2 oz. 1 TBSP 1/4 cup
4 oz. 1/4 cup 1/2 cup
6 oz. 1/4 cup 3/4 cup
8 oz. 1/3 cup 1 cup
12 oz. 1/2 cup 1 1/2 cups
14 oz. 1/2 cup 1 3/4 cups
16 oz. 2/3 cup 2 cups
20 oz. 2/4 cup 2 1/2 cups
how many ounces this machine
Hello i dont have the warm on mine if i put the oil in the microwave and after i make the popcorn is it good?
Probably not
Getting me a similiar popcorn machine soon. Cant wait to make my first batch. Got a super cool theater setup and this would be the finishing touch. Thanks for the video i subscribed and will be watching more soon.
Awesome! Yes it’s definitely the finishing touch to movie night at home!
I also bought the movie theater butter, 85oz buckets, and the 170oz buckets, it makes everything authentic, like at the movies theater
Thumbs up for the Van Halen t-shirt.
When I go to the theater I ask for the kernels, oil and salt separately - then I bring my own popper and make it right at my seat. It’s gone over pretty well so far and we’ve really enjoyed it.
Love Your Shirt VH.
Thank you!
Im going to cook my popcorns in a normal pot my country only has the white coconut oil and will canola oil work?
Yes those oils will be fine.
I just got the 50 pound bag of seeds today also .. I’m going to have popcorn for 10 years 😂😂
You’re right. I still have the same bag. 😂
I love popcorn.
Me too!
I had exact same popper. Pain in the neck to keep clean. Just use a pot on stove now.
Yeah it’s a bit of a pain, but I like it. Lol
Thanks for the video. I just get a cheap popcorn machine and your tutoriel is much better then the instruction guide of my machine.
what kind of salt did you use in the beginning? Was it flavacol?
Yes
Coconut oil? Is that what theaters use? Does it taste like coconut? Also how do you clean it after each use?
No it does not taste like coconut. I have a video showing how to clean it.
@@WayneAshleysSmallWorld damn that was fast thank you!
I am trying to make kettle corn, sweet and salty. Any recommendations?
I’m sorry, I don’t know. I’ve never tried to make kettle corn.
Is there A reason that u used yellow colored salt? Or does it matter? Can I use regular table salt? Or??
The salt has a special flavor. It’s not just regular table salt
Is that a half cup measurement for the oil??
Do you have a site to order popcorn and oil
Amazon
Looks good
Was the salt flavacol?
Yes
After trying two kinds of popcorn, white and yellow both good brands, and 2 different coconut oils my popcorn comes out almost flat and stale. The taste is good but the crunch isn't right. Used same recipe on drive in a lot and the crunch is better and not flat or soft. I've seen heating element /thermostat adjustment mentioned. Most all kernels get popped. Can someone enlighten me on if the thermostat would need to be turned up or down?
Hmm that’s interesting. My machine always comes out fresh and crunchy. Not sure why yours would be stale. I would assume it would need more heat. I don’t know on how to adjust the thermostat. Maybe there’s videos on that here on UA-cam?
Used same recipe on drive is what I tried to say.. Damon auto spelling on my tablet and can't find how to edit comment. Lol
Stove not drive!. No idea why it corrects stove as drive.
I isually do about a cup of corn about a hefty scoop of coconut buttery oil. a teaspoon of flavacol in a 10.0z pot. It’s waay too salty with a tablespoon of flavacol
Why do you need to add salt when you already added all that flavacol?
Whatever your preference is. However you like it. Want more salt? Add more salt. Don’t like salt? Don’t add any salt. That’s up to you.
@@WayneAshleysSmallWorld I mean it seems rather redundant right? Why not just add a bit more flavacol?
Then do that
@@WayneAshleysSmallWorld No, its a question, not a statement. You seem rather defensive for some reason. Just trying to understand the use of standard salt if you already have flavacol, that is all.
I never used standard salt
Yellow coconut oil?
Correct
I have a great northern machine, same plastic tubs. The oil is what discolored it. Instead of having the messy ink, I took the popping oil and rubbed all of the ink off. Now they are just white. I guess it’s better than having a faded one.
Wow, Thanks for the info!
When I go to the movies I ask for popcorn and I ask for the seasoning salt to sprinkle on top
The salt they give you is Flavocol, it's what all the theaters use and it's made specially for popcorn. You can buy it on Amazon. I always take a shaker of it to the theater with me.
ACTS ok lol 😺
ACTS this comment was like 2 years ago I know what they used already lmao
Thx
Couldn't you preheat oil in microwave to make it easier to pour, add to pot
I guess you could. I don’t see why not
microwaves are tuned to heating water molecules better a pan
How can I setup mine correctly, bc the stirrer isn’t stirring? Also I have the same machine as yours if that helps.
Luke Dawson I know how to solve that
line it up at the top
By any chance does anyone know how much flavacol he pours in? And also what would be a close measurement for the two scoops of kernels
The two scoops is about a cup each. And the flavacol is about a tablespoon each.
@@WayneAshleysSmallWorld thank you Wayne!! It's my birthday on Tuesday and I'm getting a popcorn machine for my birthday so I appreciate the help and the useful videos!
Awesome! You’re very welcome! Happy Birthday!
@@WayneAshleysSmallWorld thank you!
For the fluffiest popcorn: Use a heavy pot and I like canola oil. Get the oil as hot as possible BEFORE adding the kernels. (NEVER add kernels to cold oil) I use med high heat. (The hotter the better) Just be careful not to burn it. Burnt popcorn sucks! Use a vented lid so the steam can escape and not get your popcorn all soggy. I don't shake shit! There's enough shaking going on with each pop of the kernels to keep things moving. I then dump it all in a box, close the top and shake so the small stuff exits out the narrow slits I made in the box. You know, the unpopped kernels and small crap no one wants to eat. I add some Flavacol and maybe some butter, mix it up and dump it into the serving bowl. DONE. I like the box because it's big and each and every popcorn is coated pretty much equally.
How much please?
Does it taste like movie theaters cause im thinking about getting this
If you use the ORANGE(beta carotene) coconut oil and Flavacol salt, it does. PLEASE start small with this salt, it is BRUTAL if a lot is used.(unless you like it salty)
Coconut oil and flavacol salt are the absolute keys to the movie theater popcorn flavor. Add only a teaspoon or teaspoon and a half of the popcorn salt, adding too much will make the popcorn way to salty. If you use the type of popcorn packs with the kernels, oil, and salt separate, use only half the salt.
Love the popcorn and the T-shirt! Thanks.
Great Video. Can i substitute the salt with sugar?
I was meaning to ask because I can't deal with the salty taste. Lol
Why does any popcorn i make seem stale?
Not sure. Could be too much oil?
@@WayneAshleysSmallWorld thanks for your response so quickly, i will give it a try.
You’re welcome. It’s really trial and error when making it. Try different ways and soon you’ll get it exactly how you like it. Sometimes you just have to toss it out. Sometimes I’ve added too much salt and just couldn’t eat it. Lol
Is your coconut oil naturally yellow? Or did you mix it with anything? Because from experience, it's usually white
This particular oil is made yellow to give the popcorn that yellow look.
Will any coconut oil be ok to use if we don’t careabout the color?
@@alfredoffu Yes!
Awesome!
Maybe a stupid question but how to make sweet popcorn with a popcorn machine like this
I’m not really sure
I am constantly getting chewy popcorn. Does this happen to anyone else? If so, any fixes?
Oil might not be getting hot enough to pop the kernels? Too much oil? That’s usually the only reason they’d be chewy. Do they also seem full of oil?
Que es lo que pusiste que parece manteca amarilla?
Aceite de coco para palomitas
Sho good
Great vid. Thanks Wayne
only Gold Medal Products make great popcorn machines! best of best!
So I’m assuming you’ve never had one of these? This popcorn machine has been used many times through the year and it’s great.
@@juliduree1015 Just your opinion.. doesn't make it fact. 👌
were did you get the big sack of popcorn Kernles ?
Sam’s Club
Thx
Thank u very much
I’m gonna buy this
Only 90 dollars for this beauty!
Nolan that a lot tho
I tried that coconut oil with the flavacol salt and it tastes very little like theater popcorn id'd say about 50-60% .. so .. yeah just in case anybody was wondering it does not taste EXACTLY like theater popcorn
You probably didn’t use enough?
True lol
Why is mine stale and chewy?
Good question. Only stale popcorn I’ve ever had is if it’s sitting out for a few days
You need to add the popcorn when the oil is Hot AND most importantly, leave the front drop down bin OPEN while popping AND the Glass doors Fully Open or at least partially open so the steam can escape. Steam kills the crunch and makes popcorn chewy.
How to make movie theater popcorn, assuming you have movie theater popcorn machine
Not assuming. Showing you how to do so. Not using a microwave or stove. Many people have commented that they bought the popcorn machine.
Popcorn Even though theyre and💖Gets and his
p
I use premium olive oil, Tillamook butter and sea salt; now that's better than movie theater popcorn that clogs your arteries.
To each their own. All in good moderation. You can worry about clogged arteries and still die of a heart attack. Some of the “healthiest” people still die of heart attacks.
I grow my own organic, artisinal corn. I also grow, harvest and produce my own premium olive oil. Salt from only the finest mill in the world. I also employ a Michelin Star chef who's sole responsibility is to procure coconuts. The butter is homemade from my Wagyu cow.
Because I'm waiting till Friday to buy a toy I'm gonna buy me a cheap 16$ popcorn machine from Walmart.
Hi love your videos and just saw your recent Carmel corn one. I bought this same machine after your videos and same size. Sadly it didn’t come with the double glass door. No biggie. My question is. Every time I go to clean it and need to remove the kettle I have the hardest time getting it back in the grooves that hang down from the ceiling of the inside. Is this normal for you as well? It’s like a puzzle trying to get it to fit perfectly. A while back the company sent me a new kettle cause the stirrer was being very whacky but the problem never stopped. We have to sometimes bend the grooves to get it to go back in. You can’t use this without cleaning after of coarse but the getting the kettle back in is truly challenging and was wondering if you have the same issue. Thanks.
The doors were missing? That’s not good.
Yes putting the kettle back is definitely a puzzle. After several times you’ll get the hang of it and it’ll become easier to do.
I haven’t had any problems with the stirrer lining up with the grooves though.
Thanks for the reply. It for sure is a puzzle.
It truly is a struggle but eventually we get it in the groove. I meant about the doors that I thought I ordered the double
Door one but ended up being the single door. It’s nice though cause it has the cart that goes with it. I appreciate your videos and can’t wait for more. I have a 6 pack of different glaze pop flavors to try as well. Thanks again.
