Of all the things that the world doesn't need in the slightest… this ranks pretty damn high. According to my calculations based on Amazon pricing, one would need to use this 5 times in order to save money over just buying jiffy pop. I'm not sure I would actually achieve that That said, you dont need a special popper.

Just any pot with a lid will do. Just shake it occasionally. Shake the Pot, not what your mother gave you OnionSoup To build on this, stovetop popcorn is all about the technique. My wife learned from my friend's wife who was an absolute master.

After a couple of minutes, she adds a couple of kernels of popcorn. Once that pops, the oil is hot enough. Add the rest of your popcorn. Don't shake too much.

When there starts to be like 3 or 4 seconds between pops, pop that beast off. Salt, fake butter, enjoy. If you're ambitious, you can shake out all the unpopped kernels and toss them back in before the pot cools down. No thanks, I already have one of these: I used it once. A pan on stove with a vented lid doesn't cause that kind of disappointment. I use a Jiffy Pop pan hanging on my wall as a Redneck Fire Detector. Bet you can't do that with this gizmo pan. I don't think I've ever mehed so heartily.

I'll stick to my microwave like a human, thanks. I appreciate you selling more kitchen stuff, but I aggressively don't want this. Delicious with no hydrogenated oils - it's totally worth it, I promise. Try peanut oil also. I bought 2 because of the fantastic price. If I didn't have a Whirly Pop, I'd be buying this tonight. Microwave popcorn is nowhere near as good. What, does your model-number guy get paid by the digit? How many bytes have to die to satisfy your lust for redundant, gratuitous, pointless zeroes?

WHEN WILL THE MADNESS END? Ignorant they have to have lots of code numbers after all chihuahuas choked to death last year on popcorn. All at the resida cinima showing of lady and the tramp. AttyVette There are some kernels of truth in the reviews. I still prefer JIFFY POP.

The kids think it is the BOMB! I always take an extra because the first one burns. Then, eat all of it. And don't share with anyone else. Trust me, you won't want to. This is the seasoning stuff I'm talking about: Just a heads up, frying jalapenos in oil like that can make your eyes burn if you're not careful.

KDemo even I have some restraint when it comes to yogurt! Take a plain paper bag. Dump some kernels in.

Stick it in the microwave. Wait till the popping stops. Dump in butter or cheese or whatever. Like 10 cents a bag, and no grease and unpopped kernels. Foxborn I remember the first time I did it.. I've tried a few of the unusual kernels and the black ones aren't half bad actually. I don't really like popcorn much, but I still have a few tricks including how to make it so that I do like it.

I just pop in a big ol' pot with some oil and some shaking, not one of these fancy contraptions, though I'm sure they're handy. Tip one pop it in butter: If you want buttery flavor, you can use ghee as your popping fat. It's clarified butter, and it has a much higher smoke point than normal butter.

Tip two half-pop it: This I actually enjoy.

It's got crunch to it instead of the nothingness texture of fully popped popcorn. Boil the kernels for a bit before you go to pop them, maybe a half hour? I don't really pay attention. Dump your kernels into a strainer and give a little shake, because you are about to throw them in hot oil, don't be too much of a dummy!

Toss in the pot and lid it up quickly. They'll partially pop, just opening up a bit and letting something resembling popped corn peek through.

But, they will or should be chewable. Tip three pop something else: Amaranth is fun to pop. You don't need any oil.

It's a tiny little grain, and makes a tiny little popped grain. Nice in with granola or on cereal, or… I'm sure there are other uses. I kind of just like watching it pop though. I am going to try it this weekend. You must be a chef. When I was a kid, my dad poked four holes into an metal pan lid and that was the popcorn pan.

Good exercise for us kids, shaking the heck out of that pan. Thank god these didn't sell out before this EST guy woke up. Normally all the great stuff is sold out. Why can I only buy 3? These are great for sugar corn, which is basically kettle corn.

That is a family treat on my mom's side that goes back generations, we still have my grandmother's whirley pop. I like the stirring mechanism for sugar corn, makes it harder to scorch. Make sure the bowl you pour into is glass or metal. From our family to Meh's. I can stir a lot of things for less than that. I would not use this for roasting coffee unless you plan to do it outside. Roasting coffee makes a lot of smoke, and it kind of smells like burnt popcorn.

I used to have an air roaster that was vented right into my kitchen exhaust and it still smelled like shit while I roasted. I finally just decided to roast outside, but I could not do it on days that were below 60 degrees otherwise it would throw off the roasting. Then you have to separate the beans from the chaff.

Bottom line is trying to use this to roast coffee is a fucking mistake. A modified pop-lite type air popper, maybe? Do it outdoors, for there will be smoke fire-alarm alarm. So, according to some random site about non-stick, this contains the "budge cookware" version of non-stick, which the manufacturer itself gives a out of How about the stainless steel version of the Zippy Pop, Meh?

I'd buy that one if, you know, the price were right. Odysseus I also am not keen on aluminum but i guess the icky coating takes care of that. Odysseus Didn't notice this thing was non-stick. Can safely say of all the things I've managed to get stuck to a pot, popcorn has never been one of them…. I have a glass stove top and I have to be make sure the bottom of the any pot is smooth so as to not scratch the glass stove top.

Can you please post a pic of the bottom of the pot. So I can stop shaking my pot on the stove and turn a crank? Seems like six of one, half a dozen of the other. I'll stick to my old pots. Meh, you do realize as a civilization we have achieved better?? Landing on the moon And you would have us seriously consider spending good money on some 19th-century drek??

What's next -- push reel lawnmowers?? Or maybe in keeping with the food theme, a crank ice cream maker, or a crank meat grinder?? Ah yes, I can smell it now, coming home to fresh made popcorn. Or possibly a burned down house This meets the standard of meh shittiness, but the price is way high. Not to be confused with. DMlivezey if you have a key that looks like this: Pfff, stop buttering up everyone with stove top hoky.

Air poped popcorn is where it's at. Nice try meh, kernel luck next time.

Yup, you can roast coffee in these. If you are roasting inside, you better hope your vent-a-hood exhausts into the outside world. The darker you roast, the more smoke you generate For some help, go to sweetmarias. Another way to roast is with another kitchen gadget you might have lying around - an air popcorn popper.

Just make sure it is hot enough watts or hotter otherwise you will only toast the beans. I use a saucepan and a lid -like Henare wrote and organic sustainable palm oil [non-organic is like the worst product on the planet That popcorn is delicious These make without a doubt make the best popcorn.

We were just thinking of getting one since we wore ours out. I just got lucky! I recommend using peanut oil. When I used to go to the Amish auctions we would bring home popcorn from Yoder popcorn. If you like white tiny popcorn here is the link http: I click the meh button each day but it always seems to not register once every clicks or so and starts me over. Speaking of Zippy, why wasn't the Zika virus renamed the Zippy virus after the effects were known?

Please be careful people. I feel a Zippy summoning spell happening. You no not what you do! I bind you Zippy from doing harm. Meh is slipping no mention in the write up about being a necessity during the zombie apocalypse. Not to mention keep the kids occupied during ice storm weeks. I can see this being used for keeping my nacho cheese warm with some stirring going on. And then the cat can lick the lid when I check the temp. This really would work well in my convenience store. Actually the most fun way to make popcorn is with no lid.

Everybody stands around the campfire and tries to catch the kernels as they are ejected from the pan Seriously, just shake the pot. You know when it's done by the pause between pops, same as microwave popcorn, no clear lid needed. When did the Review Highlights start showing up in the specs post? I like this feature. Is moose looking those up and adding them manually? Or did a dev make a fancy auto-grabber for the 'most helpful' reviews? Thumperchick Yeah that's me.

It'll come and go as needed. Glad you like it! Honestly, the idea of a stove top coffee roaster or a propane coffee bean roster. Would spin my prop. I do have more useless crap around then is even legal. I have a sick need to buy this shit. Going to meh every day is part of my therapy. So far it's not helping. Fortunately this little jewel is not happening. But you can never, never have enough coffee paraphernalia filing up cabinets and drawers. Green beans can be had hundreds of places.

Red Black Throw stuff in, who cares Snacks. You dont have to worry at all about gears it doesnt have any , you can see exactly how dark the beans are even when it is very smoky, you can lift up the rubber and peak inside , it is easy to clean, and feels like it will last a long long time. I highly recommend it. I may have to try that sometime. Only had a short while and the handle fell apart. Definitely a bad product!!!

At the very least it will cause Webster's dictionary to add another clarification to the word "useless. Once when using a product similar to this I saw the aluminum had actually come off the pan and stuck to the piece of popcorn. Don't eat aluminum-it's just not a good way to go.

Sounds like a potential Michael Bay film right in your kitchen! Unless you use the brown bag method, microwave is BAD for you.

They added so much crap, they took away the healthy part. I have one of these and love it. I have used it to roast coffee beans before, but primarily I use it to make popcorn.

LOVE popcorn and I can use whatever oil I like coconut oil is great and it's delicious. It seems like this entire product is all about the lid. Why don't they just sell the lid? I don't need another pot taking up space.

I want this lid. Switched to Pot-on-the-stove and will never go back to Microwaved or Blow- dryyyy popcorn. Set it on the burner at medium-high.

Generously coat the bottom of the pot with kernels. Put the lid on with it vented as wide as you can without letting kernels jump out.

No shaking required if it is the right pot. When the popping has slowed to about one per second or two, take it off the burner and salt to taste. No need to add butter unless you prefer drinking your popcorn. RedOak As someone, somewhere above mentioned, a good trick is throwing in a couple kernels with the oil; once one pops, it's time to dump them all in.

You get pretty good at judging oil readiness by watching its viscosity.

Mellaine I'd expect any heavily clad bottom pot would work. The heavy bottom seems to spread the heat and prevent scorching no shaking required. In our case it is a very solid stainless pot with a heavily clad bottom.
