Popcorn - MineCrack - 01-05-2012 Alright, didn't know where to put this so I guess it goes here. I'm hungry as I type this, I tried popping some popcorn in the microwave, the bag just made a sizzling sound as if the butter was just boiling. Now, my microwave does not spin like most microwaves, could that be the problem? RE: Popcorn - Quizzical - 01-05-2012 My microwave doesn't spin either, popcorn works fine though. How long did you put it in for and by which brand is the popcorn made?

I put it in for 1 minute 30 seconds, no popping. I tried 2 minutes, 30 seconds like 10 popped but they burned. RE: Popcorn - SoulCake. - 01-05-2012 Probably just a lemon, did you try again with another bag?

I've tried pouring it into a bowl (it exploded). I tried cooking it 30 seconds, stopping shaking the bag putting i back another 30 seconds (I got 20 pieces, out over maybe 100). It's really pissing me off, all I want is popcorn... I have cheesecake, but I want to give that to my cousin.

RE: Popcorn - LancerImpact - 01-05-2012 Try choosing different power/heat settings on the microwave? Put it on full power. Also, lol @ this thread being in Healthy Living and Lifestyle. RE: Popcorn - Quizzical - 01-05-2012 Try it to full power possibly, your microwave in general just might be toast. 2 minutes 22 seconds is the norm in what time I use for the Orville Redenbachers popcorn bags. They turn out fine, and lol at this topic, feels weird replying to popcorn problems on a forum, but well thats life RE: Popcorn - Grin - 01-05-2012 So your popcorn doesn't pop and then gradually stops at one to two seconds a pop. CUse once it does that's the time to take out your popcorn. You could try lowering the temperature on your microwave. RE: Popcorn - MineCrack - 01-06-2012 I ran out of popcorn, so I gave up. I'll be testing again later. |
