Cleaning Your Stir Crazy Corn Popper - West Bend STIR CRAZY CORN POPPER Instruction Manual

1. Put vegetable oil and corn into popper base. Do not add more corn or oil than
recommended. Spread corn evenly over popping surface. Do not substitute
butter, margarine, shortening, or lard for vegetable oil as these will burn or
smoke excessively.
2. Place cover on popper base making sure handles of cover fit into handles of
popper base. If buttered corn is desired, divide recommended amount of
refrigerated butter into 6 equal-sized pats and place in a single layer over butter
holes in butter well. (If unrefrigerated butter is used, add to butter well after the
first kernel of corn pops.) Popcorn will be buttered as it pops. If unbuttered corn
is desired, do not add butter to the butter well. Do not place butter cap onto
butter well until after corn is popped.
3. Insert cord into popper base. Plug cord into a 120 volt, AC outlet only. The stir
rod will rotate as long as the corn popper is plugged in. Do not shake popper
during popping cycle. In 4 to 6 minutes (depending on quantity of corn being
popped) the popping cycle will be completed. Unplug cord from wall outlet. Use
a hot pad to remove cord from popper base.
4. If butter is not completely melted in butter well, use a pastry brush to push any
remaining butter through the buttering holes.
5. Snap butter cap securely onto butter well. This cap must
be on cover before popper is inverted. Make sure
handles of cover are placed into handles of popper
base. Grasp handles firmly and turn popper upside
down, turning popper away from you. Lift popper base
away from cover, being careful of escaping steam.
6. Popcorn is now ready for serving. Sprinkle popcorn with
salt if desired.
Popping Additional Batches of Popcorn - If you plan to pop more corn
immediately, transfer popcorn from serving cover to another serving bowl. Follow
steps 1 through 6 above.
