Hot air popcorn popper
Ever missed the movie scene from the 80’s, when every one enjoyed the film together with a soda and a large paper bowl of large, tasty, popcorn? Well, now, with the help of a new type of household item, you can enjoy that same experience, at home, in your living room, with your best friends.
Hot air popcorn poppers are now available on the market, and have been largely improved since the initial models. They are faster, cheaper, and more reliable and, the most important aspect, the popcorn tastes better than ever.
The process which takes place is very simple. The machine has a small metal bowl on top with small holes drilled in it. Beneath it there are some electric circuits that heat up to a degree that the air around the corn beans starts to cook the beans. At one point, the beans start popping and you get perfect popcorn. The finished product drips out the top and onto a specially designed “mouth” and into a bowl of your choice.
You can use any kind of corn, salted or spiced, and it will always be perfect. After the popcorn is done you can also add specific flavoring sauces, such as a butter ad salt mix, or cheese, or even caramel. All these sauces you can do yourself or buy them ready made from your local supermarket.
Let’s about the costs a little, and we would like to mention only home units. Professional units are not available at local stores, and you wouldn’t want a big, lumpy unit in your kitchen. So, for the small, home ones, how much exactly do you have to pay? Well, there’s a price range here as well. They start from around twenty dollars and go to almost 500 (the very special ones). These expensive versions are slightly larger and can cook other types of food as well. Almost any type, which is why they have this kind of price tag. But we are interested in the cheap versions, that are only made for popcorn popping. You can find these at any supermarket and they come with complete guides to help you achieve the best movie-style popcorn. They also have some magnificent recipes for flavors to add on top of your fresh popped popcorn.
Reliability. Well, there is nothing really willing to go wrong with this type of unit, since it doesn’t usually have any type of moving parts. It only has the electric circuits that heat the air around the popcorn, and those are almost bullet proof. It will surely die at one point, but surely not soon enough to notice. And even if it does, you can always part with a twenty and get a new one when it does.
Well, this is it about hot air popcorn popper machines. Cheap, easy to use and reliable, creating the best popcorn you ever tasted in your very one little movie theatre, as much and as often as you like.
