    the raito is 2 Kernals to 3 Oil . worked at a movie theatre for 2 years. if it is a popper the oil will dispense automatically. there should also be a measuring scoop provided by the consession personal in charge.

    71 quarts of popcorn per person is something that I found on a website. I dont know if that will help or not. Good luck with the popcorn. Have fun

    get a (blows hot air) maker - much safer!

    a hand ful or seeds should do 1 or 2 portions, depending how hungry you are!

    try heating 1 tablespoon of oil in a deep saucepan, then adding the corns- shake the pan (with a lid on!) to stop burning..

    shouldn't they teach you this when you get there? i know where i've worked concessions there's an adult there that tells you how much of what. if not, then usually the bags are proportioned for you to use the whole bag, that way theres no measuring and stuff. i guess it all depends.

    if its a pan, fill the pan so that one layer completely covers the bottom of the pan then put oil so that all the cernels are covered.
