How is this product in a hot air popper?

Sorry but I don't use an air-popper I love it cooked on the stove in oil. Of course I would imagine this would be a very good popcorn for an air popper and of course healthier.

The bag I got works really well in a hot air popper. I usually pop a half cup at a time and usually only have 5-10 unpopped kernals.

There is an art to this! I reduced my temp from high to reheat... turned the timer to 5 min and LISTENED to the intensity of the popping. Light and fluffy happens and the lid will even 'float' as the popcorn expands.It is a science thing... with the low temp just increase time --- and its all good. Your setting may vary. Fine tune to suit your microwave. It isn't perfect! but 98.5% popped is good enough. Caution.. bowl will be super hot! so will lid handle with mitts... I also use Orville yellow... that made a difference too. This from a person who picks theaters based on the quality of the popcorn... There is an art to this!

It's only as loud as the popcorn itself popping. Much quieter than an air popper, but a bit louder than if you make it in a large skillet with a lid (the vent holes in the top let more sound out).

if you mean finish popcorn , I think it pops about 2 quarts at least and 99.8 of the kernals pop !! Best popper I have had . Bill

The back of the packet states it can be used in an air popper by adding the popcorn only. You would not be using the coconut oil.

This popper is plastic, dishwasher safe, and takes just a couple of minutes to pop a quart of popcorn. I have not used the small popcorn, however I am certain it would work just fine. It is beautiful and makes really great popcorn. The only drawback is it doesn't last long. I have purchased 3 of these poppers and they usually only last about a year before a tiny plastic piece breaks...

Ghee holds up to high temps so you can use it the same as you would other oils. Either as oil to pop corn with or melt it and put it over popcorn.

In an emergency (popcorn emergency), I once used shortening and it popped the popcorn just fine. Bacon grease would probably be similar (but have a better flavor).

It's designed to be melted by the oil, but I have used it on air popped corn (my experiment) on an attempt for a lower calorie version. I spray the popcorn with butter flavored cooking spray (helps the topping stick. I also do this with the cheese flavor) and then apply the glaze as I would for salt. The end product is OK at best, but is nowhere near the kettle version. I have most of the glaze flavors and have made small batches on the stove top great results, when I didn't want to use my machine. Some batches have been superior to the machine.

If you still have the scoop... that came with the popper... we always use 2 scoops of popcorn... to 2 oz. pack of naks popping oil.. with a 1/2 teaspoon of (Gold medal premier flavacal) popcorn salt... if you lost your scoop...its about 1/2 a cup size... Put in the oil first and let melt then add your popcorn scoops with the 1/2 teaspoon of salt... and there you go let it pop your house with a smell that is awsome. frome all the stuff we tried this is the best way and taste. we get the best stuff from a site on the web... we get the best oil..like the oldfation popcorn the movies used to have... it's aswome here is the site for you you can get all your suplies for the best popcorn hands down! (www.ht-express.com.).. we get the big box of popping oil packs 98 2oz. packs a box... already ready to go into your popper.. the salt is there too... and big bags of popping corn too enjoy!!! :)

No, you can't use this in an air popper because it has the oil and salt mixed in.

Yes, you mix it in with the oil and popcorn while its heating up. As far as quantity, a little bit goes a long way. You use a teaspoon for every 6-8 oz of kernels.

The answer to your question is the clean up process is easy. I remove the popper after it cools off and wipe it out with a damp cloth and then wipe dry. the same process for the rest of the machine. So far that seems to be a good method. I hope this helps you with your question.

I have used mine about a dozen times. I use 1/3 cup of organic popcorn from an Amish farm in PA. and a little butter or coconut oil. I have never been able to get more than 1/3 to 1/2 of the kernels to pop. I use my microwave 1100 at 3 min I stop because the popping has dramatically slowed. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Generally less than 5 minutes. Follow the instructions and don't add the popcorn until oil/butter is melted. We use the 8oz pre-packaged from cine-Magic. Seems to work best.

I've never burned a batch. It pops so quickly, there's really no reason to leave it unattended. The popcorn is simply delicious !!!

I have used other electric popper and never liked the results, the popcorn pops quickly and evenly without using much oil & it is easy to clean, I just throw it all in the dishwasher.
