We recommend flavored and colored coconut oil. Popcorn popped in coconut oil stays fresh longer and does not
leave black deposits in the kettle like other oils. Use only top quality, fresh popcorn from reputable suppliers.
Raw Popcorn Measurement: Paragon advises the use of measuring cups or pre-measured tri-packs that contain
the optimal measurement of popcorn kernels, coconut oil and buttery flavored salt for an 8 ounce popcorn
machine. Paragon recommends: Using Paragon's Country Harvest® Tripack with premeasured popcorn, coconut
oil and flavored popcorn salt, specifically designed for 8 ounce popcorn machines and includes 24 tri-packs per
case Paragon model# 1001). Should you desire to measure your own popcorn mixture for your 8 ounce popcorn
machine, Paragon recommends an oil volume approximately 30% of corn used (Example: measure 8 oz. corn
kernels, use 2.6 oz. oil [1 cup of corn and 1/3 cup oil], and buttery flavored salt adjusted according to your desired
taste.)
1. Turn all switches ON.
2. Allow the kettle to pre-heat for approximately five minutes.
3. Lift kettle lid to the top of the popcorn cabinet and a magnet will adhere the kettle lid to the top of the cabinet
as you pour in premeasured tripack ingredients, or your desired amount of popcorn, oil and flavored salt. Pull lid
closed to prevent stray kernels.
4. Allow corn to pop until popping ceases, usually when 3-4 seconds lapse between pops.
When corn has finished popping, twist the kettle handle clockwise and gently dump the popcorn into the cabinet.
5. When popping is complete turn KETTLE switch to OFF position; POWER or LIGHT switch may remain ON to
display and heat popcorn.
KETTLE WILL BE HOT! Please be sure to avoid direct contact with the kettle during the popping process!
