Straight from the company:
All Paragon poppers utilize tempered glass panels, stainless steel cleanout trays, aluminum corner posts and either plated or anodized kettles. These surfaces can be cleaned using standard window cleaner. You will want to note that you should never submerge a kettle in any type of liquid because it has electrical components inside of it that can short out. Paragon kettles are designed to be wiped out with a clean cloth after each use. Should you have a kettle that gets burned on oil stains you can order Paragon's kettle cleaning kit (part# 1075) which will allow you to clean it to near new conditions. We also feature Carbon Off kettle cleaner. Winner of many gold medals for being the best product on the market.

Will thermostat stop kettle from overheating and blowing thermal fuse

The thermostat built into the kettle stops the kettle from heating at a prescribed temperature. usually around 425 F. This is hot enough to smoke and cause instant burns, but is the required temp for popping popcorn.

I do not know of a "thermal fuse" built into popcorn machines. Mechanical thermo stats are not flawless. they can and do malfunction, either too cold or too hot. the model popper you have is not adjustable, or repairable.

If you are tripping a electrical circuit breaker that is a different problem not related to kettle heat. It is a symptom of an overloading problem of your outlet, or a ground fault in the popcorn popper.

I cant find my instuction manual

Pre heat kettle 5 mins. Put in oil, popcorn, and popcorn salt. Dump kettle when done popping.

Use 3 parts popcorn to 1 part oil. Measurements are different for each model popper.

Lost manual for our bella popcorn popper model 13566. How do I clean it? Can the kettle be submerged once it is removed from the machine?

No, no popcorn kettles can be submerged. They are not dishwasher safe.

To keep clean, use coconut oil and just wipe it with a damp cloth. It is good for the cooking surface to become seasoned with carbon.

Kettle does not get hot enough

Those aren't part numbers for a Cretors popper. Must be some other brand.

I have a Gold Medal Popcorn Machine 2086. The kettle is uncleanable. Where can I purchase a new Kettle?

I hate to put this as a solution because it really isn't. I have an old popper needing a new kettle and was told it was almost as much to purchase a new kettle than the whole machine. The kettle is almost the entire cost of the unit. I will be purchasing a new unit.

Perhaps your problem like this?
When the kettle is popping popcorn, the metal rod with gear on the end pops out of place. Therefore, the kettle stops spinning and the popcorn burns.
>The allen screw that holds it in place need to be tighten.
