Enjoy movie-theater quality treat by popping corn in a commercial popcorn machine. These can be found at most vendor or concession supply stores. All you have to do is combine oil, salt and popcorn in a kettle to make this favorite movie night snack.
Instructions
1. Find your button controls so that you can properly operate the commercial popcorn machine. There are usually three switches at the top of the machine. The first button would be the heat switch, the second button is the motor and the third button is the heat lamp that keeps the popcorn warm.
2. Turn on the machine to heat the kettle that is inside of the machine. Wait for about 15 to 20 seconds to add the oil. The kettle heats up to 350 to 400 degrees, but you don't want the oil or the popcorn to burn.
3. Operate the motor button mentioned in Step 1. Add the popcorn and salt to the commercial machine. The motor keeps the oil, popcorn and salt moving in the machine so that nothing burns.
4. Switch on the heat lamp button that is usually located at the upper left or upper right corner of your commercial popcorn machine. This keeps your popcorn warm and fresh after it has finished popping. Do this after you've operated the heat and motor buttons mentioned above.
5. Handle the popcorn kettle carefully to dump the finished popcorn into a bowl. Access the kettle by opening two glass front doors on the commercial popcorn machine. Leave the motor button turned on if you have leftover popcorn. Turn the heat button off if you're not planning to make any more popcorn.
