Commercial popcorn machines and poppers are the centerpieces of a concession stand with the visual attraction, buttery smell, and savory taste they create. The sound of the popping action and the colorful decals attract customers and increase impulse sales. Kernels popping and flowing down a kettle and filling a heated deck can draw crowds around your snack shack. Popcorn machines can serve freshly popped warm popcorn to large groups of people with their high-output popper kettles and more storage space in their warming decks.
Commercial popcorn machines and poppers are countertop electric units that can also be matched with a popcorn cart or a display stand. Each part of the machine fulfills a different function for seamless, straightforward, and safer popcorn production and serving. Knowledge of these essential elements will help you find the best commercial popcorn maker matching your expectations.
Commercial popcorn poppers are available in various sizes and styles. The most crucial point is the popper kettle size measured in ounces. The specified size indicates the ounces of kernels the kettle can pop at each popping cycle. The most common sizes are 6, 8, 12, 14, and 16 ounces for low to medium output needs. Larger establishments like stadiums, amusement parks, or arenas can benefit from industrial popcorn machines with kettle sizes that can go up to 52 ounces.
The general rule in sizing your commercial popcorn machine is that one-ounce raw kernels make about 2.5 cups of popped popcorn. Therefore, an 8-oz. kettle can cook 160 one-oz. servings per hour. This amounts to 20 popped cups per batch or around 400 cups hourly. Alternatively, some manufacturers use quarts as a measure of hourly production capacity. An 8-ounce commercial popcorn popper will make roughly 170 quarts of popped popcorn per hour.
Style and design are other determining factors in choosing the best commercial popcorn machines and poppers. The coloring and layout in your facility will dictate your pick. Commercial movie theater popcorn machines have a cinema décor. If you want to remind customers of the old times of street vendors, you can go for an antique-style popcorn maker. Some other design features contribute to the ease of operation. For instance, a none-stick popper kettle with a twist locking disconnect feature means less hassle when removing the popper for cleaning.
