Method One
- Pour a quarter cup of popcorn kernels into a paper bag.
- Fold the top of the bag three times.
- Place the paper bag in the microwave.
- Set the timer for 40 to 60 seconds. (mine took 3-4 minutes)

- Remove the bag and pour the popcorn into a dish.
- Cook unbaked kernels for about 15 to 20 seconds.
- Add the extra popcorn to the other batch.
- Pour melted butter and salt onto the popcorn.

Method Two
- Take a frying pan and a fitting lid.
- Put some grease (canola oil for example) in it to make sure your corns won't stick to your pan.
- Wait until the pan is hot--you can add 1 or 2 kernels to the pan as it heats up... when they pop, the pan is hot enough to add the rest of the corn
- Put in the corns, make sure you use corns which are meant to use in a pan.
- Put on the lid fast! Make sure no corns flip out. Shake your pan a few times to make sure all corns are loose.
- Now you hear a lot of pops, just wait until all sound is gone.
- When nothing happens quickly take of the pan and put your corns in a bowl.
- Put on salt/sugar.
- Serve.
Method Three

When Popper Has Popped Corn Just Before.
1. Pour the properly measure amount of Oil into the kettle.
2. Wait about 45 seconds - or until the Oil in the kettle starts to smoke slightly.
3. Pour the contents of the properly measured corn cup (kernels plus popcorn salt or Flavacol) into the kettle.
4. Wait about 2 1/2 minutes. If you are using a pan on the stove without an agitator, you must constantly shake gently. When the crackling noise of the popping corn is no longer heard, dump the kettle and empty it completely.
5. Repeat if needed for more popcorn.
6. When you are finished popping, turn off the kettle agitator switch (if you have one) and turn off the Pilot light/ heat switch.
7. After the machine has cooled enough so as not to be dangerously hot, wipe the outside of the kettle with a soft damp cloth. This helps prevent a heavy build-up of the Oil.
TIPS
- Bagged floss keeps a day or two, depending on the humidity
- Use bags to make and display cotton candy in advance - use cones for immediate sales
- Unless you're experienced, it's best to turn off the motor to refill the spinner head
- If machine will be used more than 20ft. from power source, be sure to have an adequate extension cord
