For home and small business use, you should look at 4, 6, or 8-oz. poppers. These machines will produce 60-160 oz. of popcorn per hour. The convenient size means they can fit on a countertop or be paired with a cart. They run on a standard 120V 15-amp plug. All models come with a removable E-Z Kleen Kettle, so it is simple for anyone to clean and maintain. The PowerOff® Control is available on select models, which will automatically turn off after 15 minutes of idle time. This is ideal in situations when there is not a dedicated person operating the popper. Commercial & Concession Poppers: The next size up is the 12/14-oz. size, which is right for standard concession stands such as schools, corporate events, and fundraisers. You can anticipate producing up to 210 oz. of popcorn per hour. Countertop or cart display is possible. This size also has a 120V 15-amp plug. For easy cleaning, each has the stainless steel E-Z Kleen Kettle. In most cases, the person operating the popper will be trained. For added safety, consider models with the PowerOff® Control. High Traffic: Larger concession stands need the volume of a 16-oz. popper capable of producing 240-320 oz. of popcorn per hour. This size works well in environments like retail locations, restaurants, cinemas, and some stadiums/arenas. For space, it would require either a large counter space or a cart/base. The 120V 15-amp plug is still used for these models. Additional features include: E-Z Kleen Kettles, PowerOff® Control, and Big Eye Electronic Heat Control. It is recommended that only trained employees operate this level of equipment. Large Venues/Manufacturers: When you require quality and quantity in your popcorn production, look at poppers sized 32 oz. up to 60 oz. Grocery stores, cinemas, stadiums/arenas, and manufacturing facilities require this type of a popcorn powerhouse. Production rates range from 500 oz. to 1,200 oz. of popcorn per hour. These are floor models that run off of a 120/208V or 120/240V 50-amp plug. Features may include: updraft ventilation, fire suppression systems, and filtration capabilities. Plus, with FlexiPop, you will be able to tailor the batch size. Training is required for all operators. Consider trying our PopClean® Elite Popper™ Series Popcorn Machines.
