POPPING AND BUTTERING CORN IN YOUR STIR CRAZY
CORN POPPER
Place popper base on flat, dry surface. The heat-resistant base allows for safe table use.
• PREPARING POPCORN
There are two models of the Stir Crazy Corn popper, one for making up to 6 quarts and the second for making up to 8
quarts of popcorn. See diagram above to distinguish between models. Listed below are the proper amounts of oil, corn and
butter (or margarine) to use for making various amounts of popcorn. Do not attempt to make 8 quarts of popcorn in the 6
quart model.
Quarts of Popcorn Desired Amount of
Vegetable Oil
Amount of Corn* Amount of Refrigerated Butter or
Margarine
2 1Tablespoon ⅓ Cup 1 Tablespoon
4 2 Tablespoons ⅔ Cup 2 Tablespoons
6 3 Tablespoons 1 Cup 3 Tablespoons
8 3 Tablespoons 1¼ Cup 3 Tablespoons
* If using a gourmet/premium grade of corn, use less than specified above. To yield 2 quarts of popcorn, use ¼ cup corn; for 4
quarts popcorn, use ½ cup; for 6 quarts popcorn, use ¾ cup; for 8 quarts popcorn, use 1 cup. Use the same amounts of oil and
butter specified above.
**For 8 quart model only.
1. Put proper amount of vegetable oil and corn into popper base. Do not add more corn or oil than recommended. Spread
corn evenly over popping surface. Do not substitute butter, margarine, shortening or lard for vegetable oil as these will
burn or smoke excessively.
2. Place cover on popper base making sure handles of cover fit into handles of popper base. If buttered corn is desired,
divide recommended amount of refrigerated butter into 6 equal-sized pats and place in a single layer over butter holes in
butter well. (If unrefrigerated butter is used, add to butter well after the first kernel of corn pops.) Popcorn will be
buttered as it pops. Do not place plastic cap on butter well until after corn is popped. If unbuttered corn is desired, do
not add butter to the butter well and do not place cap onto butter well until after corn is popped.
3. Insert cord into popper base. Plug cord into a 120 volt AC outlet only. The stirring rod will rotate as
long as the corn popper is plugged in.
Caution: To prevent personal injury or property damage, inspect cordset for damage or wear before each use. Do not use your
product if it or its cord have been damaged or if it is not working properly.
Caution: Your corn popper has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or property damage resulting from
pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. Do not allow children to be near or use this corn popper without close adult
supervision. If you must use a longer cordset or extension cord, arrange cord so it will not drape or hang over edge of countertop,
tabletop or surface area where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. To prevent electric shock, personal injury or fire, the
electrical rating of the extension cord you use must be the same or more than the wattage of the corn popper (wattage is stamped on
underside of popper).
Do not shake popper during popping cycle. In 4 to 6 minutes (depending on quantity of corn being popped) the popping cycle will be
completed, and the heating cycle will automatically shut off. Unplug cord from wall outlet. Use a hot pad to remove cord from
popper base.
4. If butter is not completely melted in butter well, use a pastry brush to push any
remaining butter through the buttering holes.
5. Snap plastic cap securely onto butter well. This cap must be on cover before popper is inverted.
Make sure handles of popper cover are placed into handles of popper base. Grasp handles firmly and turn popper upside
down, turning popper away from you. Lift popper base away from cover, being careful of escaping steam.
6. Popcorn is now ready for serving. Sprinkle popcorn with salt if desired.
