The Flavacol can be add to the melty oil before the kernels go in... this gives the popcorn better COLOR out of the gate.

Great easy to follow video! Just found one brand new in box in my alley, and I loooooove popcorn 🍿! I've got an air popper from the 80's, and I've done oil in a pot method but all that skaking scratches the cook top. I can't WAIT to try my new (FREE!) Whirlypop! Also try adding parmesan cheese and paprika with the butter!

[@rickobrien9903]

I bought the WP from Lee Valley in Canada and I really like it. I did buy the Falvacol and a 1 Gallon container of the coconut popping oil at the same time. Both will last you a life time and I'm not kidding! I ended up throwing the oil away because I just had it too long and got nervous about its quality. I now use coconut oil or ghee and add a little Flavacol for cooking. I then sprinkle with truffle salt and it is amazing! I don't add any butter, but you could melt some butter and either add the truffle salt or truffle oil. I also have switched to Amish Country Popcorn / Old Fashioned Purple Popcorn Kernels and nearly every kernel pops with no or very few hulls. It's a perfect snack and way better than buying chips with questionable oils and chemicals. (Edit) - 1/2 cup of kernels will totally fill the popper I have with popped corn and it's a lot! It will definitely fill a nice sized bowl.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

[@countalucard4226]

@@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN Splenda is the only sweetener that won’t burn.

[@dubmob151]

That would seem like it'd make for a better distribution of the salt. I've been adding it after it's done popping by trying to sprinkle it evenly through the half open lid as I turn the crank to distribute it. It generally works okay, but letting it scatter around from the popping action seems like it'd work better to get it all evenly distributed.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I do both. I dust the kernels before popping then sprinkle in layers while adding the popcorn to the bowl.

Hi Richard! 👋 Nice video on the Whirley popper. I've always popped my kernels in a stainless bowl on the cook top. I always have unpopped kernels.

How many tbsp of oil and flavasol do y’all recommend..what’s the perfect ratio

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

The written recipe and directions is in the description below the video. Click "more" and that will drop down. But in case you can't find it, it's 1-2 tbsp. oil and a generous sprinkling of the popcorn salt. Thanks for watching.

[@wingerrrrrrrrr]

If perchance the nylon gears get degraded by the heat or use over time, is it possible to retrofit them with the presumably more durable steel gears available on some models? I see there are hex set screws holding them on, are the metal ones the same? Are there any advantages to having the nylon gears vs metal?

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I've had my Whirley Pop Original, which comes with nylon gears, for years now and the gears are showing no wear with almost daily use. However, they do make a model with metal gears. Should the nylon gears wear out, there are replacement lids that are interchangeable with either 6 quart pot, which are roughly $11-12 so buying a whole new pot is not necessary.

[@wingerrrrrrrrr]

@@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN that's good, I wasn't sure if the nylon gears would hold up that long from some reports that they failed. Maybe those were due to forcing the crank after the popcorn was popped and hanging up the stirrers, while they were heated up. Sounds like they're fine with proper handling then.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Perhaps. IDK. I've seen some videos where people are cranking it so hard and fast. That's not necessary. A slow turning is all that's needed just to keep the kernels moving so they don't burn. But, yes, if you try to force-turn after all kernels have popped, it will cause stress on the gears.

[@dubmob151]

The manufacturer told me the metal gears are pressed in rather than held in by set screws like the nylon gears are, so there's no way to retrofit to metal. Shouldn't matter if cranking force is limited to reasonable levels, so it ought to be fine. I also make sure it isn't overheated, so it won't melt it down.

@@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN so was i pal, that doesn't even happen with microwave popcorn in a bag, that was a neat little appliance, my wife eats more popcorn than i do, but she uses an air popper.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I have always loved microwave popcorn, but haven't been able to eat it in about 15 years dues to a colon issue. For some reason it always ripped me a new one with bad bloating etc. Recently I was surfing around and started finding many sites about how store-bought microwave popcorn is so unhealthy due to the many additives in it, even the bag itself. Accordingly, they conclude it can cause diseases of the lung and thyroid and even some forms of cancer. So that got me to wondering especially since in 1999 I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. Perhaps it was that type of popcorn that also was causing my stomach issues. So I started looking into other ways to make it such as air popping, skillet or homemade microwave kind. I made a video a couple of weeks ago of how to make natural and healthier microwave popcorn. I've had it just about every night since and so far no stomach issues. Then I found the Whirley Pop stovetop popper, which I had last night. And again, no stomach issues. All that to say I will never eat another bag of store-bought microwave popcorn.

[@balajiv8518]

the video looks very great. to stir continously, u need to have a balance by holding one hand on the vessel and use other hand to stir. Right!!, because i could see that the whole vessel is shaking. Once it is heated enough, can u hold the vessel and stir.. any Thoughts!! (Not offensive. Just Curiosity)

is the little bit of oil you add in the beginning the same as the melted butter you add at the end? nice video btw!

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Just depends on how much butter you like on it. I tend to like lots! Prolly about 3 tbsp. What I do is gradually add 1/4 of the popcorn from the Whirley Pop into a large bowl then drizzle some of the melted butter on that layer then so on and so on. Thanks for watching.

[@johnbelvin5216]

Yes. if you want movie theater taste use coconut oil (unrefined) and flavacol salt. I also add my flavacol into the coconut oil. And for anybody that likes melted butter topping, make sure to clarify the butter first. This is the way to make popcorn as opposed to that microwave crap and that styrofoam texture air popper popcorn.

I use butter all the time in mine and has never burned. I chalk that up to pure slop. The popcorn with the butter turns out great. I have tried oil and the popcorn comes out tasting terrible for me. It is very bland and nasty. Now, I know this is operator error on both spectrums for me. You can't have everyone successfully popping popcorn in oil and not me. And you can't have me turning out good tasting popcorn cooked in butter and not anyone else. So, I am going to try the Franklin coconut oil for the whirley pop popcorn maker until I get it right.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Good to know. I've heard from several where they burned it. Have you tried the type of oil used by theatres and sports arenas? I use Snappy's and it doesn't leave an aftertaste and it turns all the popcorn yellow. I get it from Amazon. I melt the butter then pour it over the popcorn in sections as I'm adding it to the bowl. Thanks so much for watching.

[@dc1397]

@@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN does the Franklin coconut oil an aftertaste for you? Just assuming you have tried it. You did a great job in your video for sure. As for cooking with butter, it is turning brown for sure. But, it is still tasting very good to me. We grew up eating parched corn and popcorn in a cast iron skillet cooked in butter. So, we might not know any different. When I compare the popcorn cooked in butter to normal theater popcorn, mine tastes pretty good. Plus, my son likes it cooked in the butter too.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I haven't tried Franklin's. I've seen it, but I'm just sticking with what I've used for a long time. As far as the butter thing, butter will burn at temps above 350 degrees, which is considered a moderate temperature, but different stoves vary so sometimes it's hard to pinpoint what temp it is other than guess work and trial and error. Brown is okay, but care must be taken as it gets darker from there. Alot of science involved, but basically it's the milk solids breaking down form the heat. I pop at number 8 on my stove, which is considered medium high, too hot for butter. For me, I just find that butter taste better melted at a medium low heat then pouring over the PC. I melt mine in the wave for 10 seconds then pour over the popcorn. But it's what ever works for everybody. Thanks again so much for watching.

Don’t add flavacol after. Add with oil. He does it a terrible way:) and be careful a quarter teaspoon goes a long way. Can easily make it too salty. And I came to look at the lid and how full of water it was. Looks like it still makes the top ones soggy.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Water????

[@shawncaughey3440]

One of the main reasons I watched this video was to see how much oil and cereals were needed. Why would you not include this info?

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

All of the recipe information and directions is in the video description box, I don't put that in the video because viewers have to stop start stop start, etc. and not mentioning cuts down on total video time. Just look at the information under the video then click more, which will then drop down the recipe. Thanks for watching.

Welcome to fact or cap where we test popcorn trends to see if there real or fake.

[@theghostofsw6276]

Only problem is I actually like the taste of burned popcorn......not all of it, just a small amount of kernels. Oh....and a beef Ichiban Noodle salt packet.

Thanks so much for watching.

You are far better to buy a Whirley Pop popper with metal gears than plastic gears (this popper in the video has plastic gears). Plastic gears don't have anywhere near durability after repeated use.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I’m sure you are correct, but after 4 years the gears are showing no extensive wear. Thanks for watching.

[@wingerrrrrrrrr]

Suggestion: trim the video at the start of popping and show instead the end where the popping finishes, so viewers know what to expect to hear when the last kernel gets popped. Just made the first batch with mine, and it was impressively successful, unburnt yet no unpopped old maids. Kinda the opposite of recent attempts with a microwave popper.

Thanks for the tip and for watching.

SMDH no need to wash just wipe it out ....NOPE

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

It doesn't need washing out if it's properly seasoned. Thanks for watching.

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

In fact, Whirley Pop's website states to simply wipe out with a paper towel in most cases after use.

[@spencerharding8443]

@@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN to each his own not washing it can't be healthy

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

I hear ya, but I've done it this way for 20 years with no issues. I know many other users who do it this way as well with no problems. It merely keeps the pot well seasoned. Thanks again for watching.

We take waffles seriously in our house kzbin.infoUgkxUfphIgghPSpAXNq6OG2WRYsFVqylcqMn and worked our old one through many years of Sunday brunches till it finally gave out on us. Our old one only made two at a time, this one makes four! Nicely sized 1 inch thick which are lovely! Now the kids don't have to wait as long to eat our weekly waffle breakfast and everyone's are hot if we wait and eat all together! Setting 3 seems to work perfect for golden brown. Be sure to pour the batter in the center of each waffle square, not the center of the iron like the novice that posted the scorched waffles photo. About a 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter in each seemed to work well for us. We tested making just one at a time so we could use all the remaining batter and it made it just as fluffy and golden as when we made 4!
