I haven't tried that. I really like the Stir Crazy popper! It has made the best popcorn. Then you can add 1/4 cup of Sugar to make Kettle Corn.

I haven't tried that but it could be possible. Might be a little heavier than a 'pop' tho. About the size of an apple so use stronger sticks. Hope this helps :)

Mine came with the clear angled chute to direct popped corn into a bag or bowl. Without it, the popped corn will be blown upwards and scatter.

According to a book I have, Beautiful Corn by Anthony Boutard, any corn is edible and this could be popped like any other Indian corn. I have not popped any of mine yet--this is my first year to grow it. It's so beautiful that I hate to pop any, but I may do one ear. Good luck Rebecca

I've used Orville Redenbacher's butter flavoured oil, and some shake-on stuff that I bought at WalMart, and it's fine. I haven't experimented much as I prefer just to pop the corn and add butter and salt after it's popped.

yes it pops pop corn , but Mine was a piece of junk and burned the popcorn so I tossed it in the trash after about 3 tries , i do not suggest buying this pop corn popper

I just use regular yellow or white corn. I find it works best if you use the butter container to measure the corn ( it will make a big batch). Also, if you use a smaller kernel or less corn it helps to tilt the popper back so the kernels don't fly out the chute.

You can use your own popcorn. I usually use orville redenbacker-it comes in a jar. Just a little bit of oil and about 1/3 cup of popcorn is perfect.

I just used mine for the first time and got a full bowl of perfectly popped corn in 3 minutes. I used Walmart's GV popcorn with 2 Tbsp of Canola oil.

Hello!!! We have these and it seems like you can fit 2-21/2 cups of popped corn. Great quality and assemble super easy! Hope this was helpful!

Absolutely !!! I do it all the time. One of my favorites is left over Bar-b-Q ribs. As a matter of fact I now cook additional ribs to make sure I have some on hand for a quick meal. I use the 4.5 mil bags . The can be used over if you want to be real "thrifty". Try this trick >>> 3 ears of shucked corn on the cob, butter and salt & pepper. Seal and freeze. When you want corn on the cob, throw the bag in boiling water and boil for the same time you would normally. The corn has much more flavor because you are not filling your house with corn aroma steam.

Had one ages ago when I was a scout. Like most scouts, I figured out how to pop popcorn in it. (you need the handle from another kit)

No I don't...BUT the silicon handle is terribly, terribly HOT after 2 1/2 minutes cooking the pop corn. The glass handle was WAY BETTER!

I just made kettle corn with my Great Northern popper last week using the following recipe and it turned out fantastic; without the burning that many people complain about. 2 Tablespoons regular olive oil or vegetable oil, 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter, 1/2 cup corn kernels, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/3 cup sugar. Heat the oil, butter, salt and sugar over medium heat till hot then add the corn. When the kernels start to pop start turning the handle and continue until the popping stops. Pour into a large bowl and break up any large clumps. Be careful because the corn will remain very hot because of the sugar. Enjoy!
