    I had a hot air popcorn popper as a kid and the popcorn was always way worse than the stuff from the cinema. Instead, get a big metal bowl and use the Alton Brown methode

      I got the Presto Poplite and I’ve been very happy with it. Pretty straightforward. I don’t exactly have a good butter distribution set up… but otherwise I’d recommend it.

      Altons method is very similar to the whirly pop, which was the other option I read about. For pretty much the same reasons Alton puts out: Thin metal, move popcorn, even heat distribution.

      Might try using smaller salt next time :) ty!
