i bought the 4oz great northern popper but i bought the 8 oz packs by mistake can i still use them in the machine?

Yes but only half the pack of kernals and oil at a time, the kettle you bought can only handle 4 oz at a time.

I don't see a problem with that. I used 12oz packs in an 8oz machine. You will just have a number of unpopped kernels left when popping is done.

Yes, it may just fill the kettle to the point where less than half of all the corn may to pop. So, just use only half at a time.

I have never tried it in a microwave popper but do not see why the smaller packs would not work. The packs come in 2.5, 4, 6, 8, and 12 ounce sizes. I have always used a West Bend Stir Crazy popper with the 6 ounce packs.

You can use any corn oil. I always purchase my popper supplies in bulk from Sam's Club.

Maybe you can use two pods of the medium. That's what they recommend for 8 ounces anyway.

My popcorn maker has been used only once for our Halloween party. I was not the one popping the popcorn and was not present during popping. However, I was the one who cleaned the machine and was amazed at the amount of unpopped kernels. The next time it is used, I will do it and see if the same thing happens. We use the 8 oz. size.

No they can not. I made that mistake and have to buy a different set. You need to get the Woll Plus induction. Make sure it says for induction. Hope this helps and keeps you from making the same mistake I did.

I have never tried, however looking at the Nespresso pods, these are a slightly different size, so I would say no.

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.

Not really. That's what I bought them for. I got them to work, but the confetti did not go as high as I would have liked, and not everyone's popped. I had to score the tissue paper that I used to cover the popper, and even then the bottom had to be hit extremely hard. So, They can be made to work but I would try to find something else if I had to do it again.

I had the same problem with this questionable purchase...no instructions of any kind. The way I figured this out was to buy some of what are called "Popcorn Kits". These are all in one packages with the kernels, Coconut Oil, and Flavacol salt all pre-measured in a single package. They are sold to match the typical popcorn machine; that is, for your 8 ounce machine, you would buy an 8 ounce kit. This refers to the finished weight; that is, an 8 ounce machine will make 8 ounces (weight) of finished popcorn. The package contains 8 fluid ounces of kernels, I poured my kernels into a measuring cup and discovered that it contains 8 fluid ounces of kernels. The oil is usually stated in Tablespoons (1 Tsp = 0.5 fl. oz.). The Mega Pop kit that I used, had about 6 Tbsp--about 3 ounces--of Coconut Oil. So, the Mega Pop is 8 ounces of kernels and about 3 ounces of Coconut Oil. The general rule of thumb for popcorn is one ounce of oil for three ounces of kernels. With these machines, you put all the oil in, let it heat, then add all the kernels and the Flavacol. As the kernels pop, they will cascade out of the popper, until all the kernels are done. There are videos all over YouTube on the use of these machines. Here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW5zs2Tpp5M

When I was looking for mine, it stated that none of the individual poppers would fit the cart. I would contact the company and see if they have someone that would repair it for you or be able to buy replacement parts.

I'm pretty sure that these can't be used in the whippers sold by bestwhip.com. Sorry I can't be of more help!

yes you can....I use 5 packs for the 4 cup and it turns out wonderful. I was disappointed that this machine didn't have a 'frothing' feature but I am really happy with it so far and very easy clean up!

Mine says "Use by 8/12/14" They are vacuum packed so I think you would be safe in buying a 4 pack.

I just can't imagine. Are you using a popcorn machine like they have at the movies? We've used the 2.5 oz. pkg. for our little machine and the 4 oz. ones for the floor model machine, and if you put in all the oil in the package and all the salted popcorn, it's just delicious. Sometimes I don't use their oil and use just a little canola oil and strain the popcorn mixture to remove most of the salt to make it healthier and it's still very good.

Yes, I do not see why you couldn't. I have a stand alone retro popper with a kettle and I use this in my unit with no problems. Hope this helps.
