There is nothing like the sound and smell of popcorn popping, whether you’re making it for a movie night at home or as a daily snack. The perfect kernels smell nutty and have the ideal crispy exterior to handle all the best toppings, like melted butter, caramel, chocolate, or cheese.
It took us eating many bowls of popcorn (somebody had to do it) to find the best popcorn makers for this all-important job. That’s how we discovered one of our favorites, the Franklin’s Gourmet Popcorn Popper. If you’re ready to settle in on the couch with a large batch of this deliciously crunchy snack, now’s the time, since this top-notch popper is double-discounted right now.
When you’re in the mood for popcorn that captures the taste of movie theater popcorn, this gourmet popcorn popper is the ticket. During our tests, it produced a wonderfully large batch of nearly 24 cups of perfectly crunchy and popped popcorn. It has a sleek yet retro look that we love, from the long wooden handle that sports a crank, to the black-coated solid aluminum construction of the pot itself. The popper has a bucket-like base with an aluminum split top. The lid easily opens up on either side using the wooden handles, which gives you a little more control as you add the popcorn kernels or remove them after they’ve popped.
This popcorn popper brings in a touch of the old-fashioned way of making popcorn at home, since you use the crank to stir the kernels while they pop. It's one of the few we love that can whip out enough popcorn for the whole family. We found it very simple to use, too. You just heat oil, add kernels, and then start cranking until you hear them start to pop. It only takes a few minutes, too. When it's done, put the popcorn into a bowl and add your favorite toppings. It’s compatible with gas and electric stovetops.
We found it easy to clean, too. If you’re a popcorn fanatic and use it often, we found wiping it out with a damp dish rag or paper towel sufficient. Otherwise, we’d wash it with warm soapy water and dry it before putting it away. As for storing it, we did find it was a bit bulky and hard to store, as it measures 11.6 by 8 by 16.6 inches, though it’s well worth finding room for movie-theater-quality batches at home.
Enjoy popcorn just like you get at the movies with our favorite big-batch popcorn popper. Shop it now for only $58, and get ready to settle in and watch the show.
