I just bought this and want to use premeasured packs. Can I buy smaller ones and use those ( 6oz)? Does it have to have the 8oz to work properly?

I never use premeasured packs, but any amount you put in will work. Just watch it and when popping slows to 5 - 20 seconds between pops make sure to dump canister to avoid burning. I prefer to use organic coconut oil and organic popcorn kernels. Let the coconut oil preheat until vaporizing/white smoke rising, then add 1 cup kernels. Preheating oil works best. I use varying amounts of oil - usually about 1 tablespoon - coconut oil is hard at room temperature. Also - keep doors open when popping - an occasional kernel may fly out and is hot, but this allows the steam moisture to escape, which makes the popcorn fluffier. Closing the doors traps the steam, and the popcorn is chewy, not very good.

You can use whatever size you want! Smaller bags smaller batches all cooks the same! I use the all the time at our school...love! Love! Love!

This seems to smaller than the standard six.....I kinda like that too. I would recommend this guy. Your question made me unwrap this thing, and I'm sorry I didn't use it yet.The best ones however seem to be the cheapies that I have all over the house at 10 or so for 5 bucks from China.!!!

I have a Stir-crazy popper that is 6 quart and I use the 4 oz. pack and it is just right. I would think the 6 oz. would be perfect for an 8 oz. popper.

I did it once with no problem. You may want to get the 6 cup one, or you will end up doing it in a couple of batches. If you are used to that, then it shouldn't be a problem.

I just did a side by side comparison with Prevail and Walgreens brand (exact same item) and they both held 12 oz of water but both leaked if squeezed. In my opinion, the BEST for max absorbency and NO leaking is Tena Level 3 male guards.

I am sorry- I don't have a kid with a mini hydration pack! I can tell you, however, when I looked at the pack online, it sure looks like it is the same stuff, only a smaller pack. Never saw any parts options for replacements that are "mini" sized so I would feel safe ordering....also, it might be a good thing to get a "Bit Bite Valve Cover" while you are at it. I know kids might be a little rough on their stuff, but if you can get them used to it, using a cover is a really nice habit.

I've only bought the 1.69 fl.oz. size - its more economical! It lasts me maybe 5 months/once a day. Good luck!

Sure E.CauPulog I can rely to that. The one I bought can take 60 ml or 2.0 oz.

Mmmmm I got the 8 oz & it fits jus fine, never knew there was a 12 oz so not sure. The canister will have to be the same height but there is a little room for it (the can) to be a bit wider.

If you purchase with XPRESSURSELF you would get a full sized bottle, not minis. Please contact your seller for more detail if they sent you the mini version and ask for a refund.

I don't think the 8oz would work. The popper is not that big, the 2.5oz is the perfect size.

You need to slather on a good amount so buy the 8 oz tube instead. My daughter said it didn't work as well as she expected no matter how much she used though, but she used it on her bikini line, so...

For me, the 20-liter size is a littIe bit bigger than the average pack size. I have 2 and they are the best I've ever owned!

I got the Coleman North Rim 0 Degree Sleeping Bag and I use the Medium bags... It might fit in the small but I had a really hard time trying to get my sleeping bag into the compression bag... I bought these a couple years ago.... There was an option to buy a 3 pack with different sizes... I use the other two sizes for other stuff when I hike...

I have used the larger ones many times (6 or 7) The flasks I purchased this time were to small I was unable to use them.

It all depends on the brand's container size and style. I've put both Chobani mini (3.5 oz) and Stonyfield regular (6 oz) containers into the larger one with no problem.
