Use the handle attached to the kettle to flip the kettle over to empty it of any remaining popcorn. Season your popcorn with salt and other flavorings, if desired.

Tip

Always remember to clean your unit after three to five uses. This will remove built-up oil and other ingredients and ensure that your popcorn tastes fresh every time. Use the storage compartment at the base of the cart to store your popcorn-making supplies.
