Author Topic: corn to oil ratio/recipe Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 03-08-2006 10:10 PM                     My search on this topic revealed 5 threads but non really answered my question. I have a 18oz Star popper and I'm looking for the perfect seed to coconut oil ratio. Also the amount of salt for the ratio. Can anyone help?

It takes 11 oz. of oil to a batch. So, doing the math, you would use 6.18 oz of oil. I'd round it off to 6 (or 7 if you like the nice yellow color.) And probably a heaping teaspoon of Flavocol would be pretty close on the salt. Hope this helps.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 03-09-2006 03:25 AM                     ..or, a simple 3.00/1 seed to oil ratio. Even the old Manleys had this ratio as well. Damn,they were good poppers. Kind of an industry standard for poppers... - Monte  |  IP: Logged Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 03-09-2006 09:26 AM                     Thanks guys I was pretty close on what I was doing but wanted to be sure.
