Popcorn Machine Buying Guide

The popcorn machine kettle size refers to the approximate number of one-ounce popped popcorn servings the kettle will produce in one popping cycle (which takes about 3-4 minutes). For example, a 4 oz. popcorn machine will produce enough popcorn in one cycle to fill 4 one-ounce popcorn servings. A one-ounce serving is a bag approximately 3" wide by 2" deep by 8" tall. Four ounces of popped popcorn is roughly equivalent to a microwaveable bag of popped popcorn. The best way to determine the size of machine you will need is to figure out how many one-ounce servings you will go through during your busiest hour. Divide the number of one-ounce servings per hour by 16 and you will have the size machine you will need to meet your busiest demand. For example: During her busiest hour, Sally needs 125 one-ounce bags of popcorn. 125 divided by 16 equals 7.81, therefore Sally should order an 8 oz. popcorn machine.
