Popcorn machines, also called popcorn poppers, heat sweetcorn kernels until they expand and form popcorn. They usually have large sealed chutes providing ample room for the kernels to pop. They may also include accessories measuring cups, serving bowls, and other accessories. Some models allow flavorings to be mixed in. Many people also use poppers for roasting coffee and making puffed rice.
Yield: Make sure the popcorn machine can pop most or all of the kernels in the batch. Smaller chutes provide limited space for expansion, which can leave almost half of the kernels unpopped. Look for one with a large chute if you want to make several batches.
Materials: Choose a popcorn machine with a nonstick container for easier cleaning and maintenance. If there are small children in the house, look for a stay-cool handle and insulated casing to prevent burns. Choose one with a clear plastic chute and lid so you can watch the popcorn as it pops.
