Can you use this popcorn in a air popper machine?

I have done so, though I have to put something in the chute to keep the unpopped kernals in until they start popping, but I think that's my popper. It's really good popcorn.

I don't have an air popper machine. We always do it on the stovetop :-)I don't see why you wouldn't be able to pop it that way, though.

Yes you can. The corn is slightly dryer without but oil is not required. It's also easier to burn the popcorn. I have successfully done it twice; both times I really really wanted popcorn and was hard up for oil. You really only need a small amount of oil. If no oil is going to be your norm, I'd recommend an air popper.

I honestly would"t know. All we use is 1/3 cup of regular popcorn no oil and it works great. I would maybe ask the manufacturer.

If the popcorn is for 30, and is popped, then no. You probably need a 5-6 gallon container. There is a similar glass container at Walmart. That would give you an idea if it's what you want. There are decorated tin popcorn cans. You might want to check them out. I like your idea. Good luck!

Absolutely!!!! I use canola oil, as it is healthier. But you can use any kind of oil. I absolutely love my popcorn machine, as I'm sure you will also!!!!

No, absolutely not. The machine pops the popcorn by blowing super-hot air up through the kernels, and pouring anything in other than dry popcorn will ruin the machine. Melt your butter while the popcorn is heating up, and pour it on the popcorn once you get it in the bowl. Hope that helps!

It does pop well in an air-popper since that is what I have always used for it. It is light and fluffy and all the kernals pop for the most part - so great poppage. It's an excellent popcorn.

I would think so - you put it in with the oil and popcorn. Just adds salt / flavor to it.

I have not tried using it for popcorn. I bought it to cook rice in the mircowave and I love it!

In our experience, not really. You might get away with trying to add the salt just as the popped corn leaves the popper to drop in the bowl since there may be a very slight bit of moisture present from the popping process (moisture escaping as the kernel pops) but, it is unlikely. We use an air popper, as well but, we always add some butter mixed with olive oil. Not so much for the salt, we just like the flavor. Responder " Franklin" makes a good point, though; the salt is very finely ground and could easily get lodged in nooks & crannies of a popped kernel. We just prefer more salt flavor than what we got without using a some oil.

I'm sure you could, but why? That's what air poppers are for. Air popped popcorn has little flavor. Viatek is for small batches of popcorn. It controls your portions, which is key to effective weight loss and maintenance. For one batch, I use 5 grams of oil (40 calories) and 35 grams of popping corn (105 calories). The total of 145 calories is less than most snacks. Corn popped in a small amount of oil simply tastes better and is more satisfying. The Viatek does three things: It helps you control the portion of popcorn, enables you to eliminate all the unnecessary fillers in most microwave popcorn, and finally, it's also less expensive than microwave popcorn bags. These are the reasons to buy the Viatek. I've been using it regularly for months now, and I still love it.

Yes. My only complaint is its small capacity. If you've got the extra money, get a BIG one. This one only pops about enough popcorn for three or four of the little bags and if you're popping for a roomful of little kids... don't even think about using this to supply adults with popcorn.

The kernels are too small for an air popper and fly out everywhere. What I did was tilt the air popper backwards until the popcorn starts to pop, then you are good.

This one isn't an air popper but it's an awesome popcorn maker. Have used it a lot and it makes great popcorn every time.

Absolutely, I don't know how large your popper is so I can't recommend an exact amount, but I put a little bit inside of my popper with the oil and kernels, and then also sprinkle a little on after the corn is popped. Comes out perfect and taste like movie theater popcorn.

I have never tried it on air popped corn. It is very fine almost like a powder so it may work. I use this on kettle corn & it's perfect & will continue to use it instead of morton salt or anything else. Just a light salt. Good luck!
