Atom Pop Instructions
The Atom Pop is a stove top corn popper that requires no shaking or stirring. This cone-shaped appliance has a 3-3/4-inch diameter base and a 10-1/2-inch aluminum bowl. The device pushes popped kernels away from the heat, while the aluminum bowl protects them from burning. The Atom Popper can make up to 2-1/2 quarts of popcorn, and is a healthy alternative to microwave methods since it contains no additives. It is simple to use and dishwasher safe.

Tips & Warnings
Different types of popcorn may require a slightly different amount of oil.
If you are using a gas stove, adjust the flames to go up the sides slightly.
For better results, swirl the popper before placing it on the stove. This coats the kernels thoroughly.
