Factors responsible for the differences in price

The many different styles and sizes of popcorn machines that more often than not, determine the popcorn machine price in Nigeria. Location of purchase also adds a variation to the price of the machine.

Types of popcorn machines available in Nigeria

Depending on your capital and whether you want to start mass production of popcorn, there are two types of popcorn machines.

The manual popcorn machine


This is the type that makes use of gas and requires the maker to turn a handle on the pot from time to time. This type is cheaper than the other one that we all know. It only uses gas, and you have the opportunity to make popcorn as you will so long as you have your gas cylinder filled.

Electricity powered popcorn machine

This type depends on electricity (either from a generator or anywhere) for their operation. This obviously is costlier than the manual type discussed above and is more convenient to use. It is not a must that you buy this one if you do not have enough money to start with. This is the common type of popcorn machine that many are familiar with.

Also, there are other types of popcorn machines that make use of both electricity and gas. They are also costlier but more efficient than the two above. After choosing a type of popcorn machine to use, then you will need other equipment such as the sealing machine if you desire to go into mass production.

Finding the Right Popcorn Machine

The basic principles for how a popcorn machine works will essentially be the same between different types. However, there are a number of things that you will want to consider when making your purchase decision.

Categorisation

When choosing a commercial popcorn machine, it is important to understand the way popcorn machines are categorized. A commercial grade popcorn machine is analysed by the volume of popcorn that it creates during a single popping cycle. Since popcorn machines are categorized strictly by volume, it makes selecting a popcorn machine much simpler.

Size

The size of popcorn machine you should purchase will be determined by the usage of the machine. How much quantity do you want to produce? You can always cook less in a bigger machine.

Trays

Does the machine have a tray that separates the kernel from the finished popcorn? You definitely want a machine that has a warming tray if you are going to make popcorn that you are going to eat throughout the evening, instead of right after it is made.

Wattage

Popcorn machines vary in the number of watts. It is recommended to get a machine with the higher wattage because that will cook the popcorn faster.

Cleaning

For the longevity of the machine and successful cooking results, it is best to go with popcorn machines made with anodized aluminium and tempered glass sides. They give the best heat transfer and relatively easier to clean, and won’t scratch.

Control and safety

Some popcorn machines come with controls and separate switch for different functions instead of just one control. Whatever machine you purchase, put your safety in consideration when it’s in use.

Now you have the option of eating freshly popped popcorn from the comfort of your own home with popcorn machines small enough to sit right atop your kitchen counter. With many homes now including media rooms, owning a popcorn machine is essential in making your movie nights complete. You can’t go wrong when making the choice to invest in one of these jewels.
