Besides the basic use of making popcorns, popcorn popper now are widely used in roasting coffee beans for coffee lovers. Most coffee lovers are willing to grind their own beans to get a fresher and more flavorful cup of coffee. But roasting the beans is usually left to the professionals. First of all, not all popcorn poppers are suitable for use as a coffee bean roaster. Looking down into the barrel of the machine, you should see that the hot air enters the chamber from side vents, not from a grate in the bottom. You have your green beans, and you're ready to try your first batch. Make sure you're working in a well-lit and well-ventilated area. You'll need to be able to watch the beans to determine when they are done to your liking, and there may be smoke and dust flying around during the process. Use as many beans as you would corn kernels, anywhere from a half cup to a cup, depending on the popper. Never overload the popper. Start up the popper, and make sure to have a bowl under the spout to catch dust and chaff. After around 3 minutes, you'll hear the first crack. You'll have a nice light roast in a minute after that, or up to another 3 minutes for darker roasts. The total time should be longer than 6 minutes and you'll have burned beans. Watch your beans through the clear top of the popper to determine when they are dark enough for you. It will take a bit of practice to get to know the right shade.
Buying Tips:
The kids would be thrilled with joy to hear the kernels to crack inside the popcorn popper. Popcorn popper is a really useful device to make the whole family happy. When you buy one, make sure the box is made of glass so that you can see what is happening when you cook. The mixture of Oil and Salt has the tendency to form a hard crust on the metal if not removed immediately; the longer it stays on, the more difficult it is to get off. Coconut oil could be a better choice and it will not stick to the metal. Also please check the switches on the machine see if it is working well. If you also need to roast coffee beans with this device, take one that transfers hot air from the side vent not from the bottom.
