Cool vid 👍

Hello, I'm finally about to start cooking next week hopefully!

How can I send you some money for your recipes?

I have a Gold Medal Breeze which has temperature control. Do you run at low temps to pack the containers? To be able to keep up etc...just curious if that is how you're running in this video?

Your Breathing is annoying

Hey Daniel. We have been in the kettle corn business for the last 12 years. We have spoken before on the phone. I would love for you to reach out to me and I'll let you know what we do.

Your so awesome!!🎉

Hi there! Have you ever experimented with different oils or sugars? I am looking to try to make a healthier organic version of kettle corn.

Please take this advice. I have this same machine and I was cleaning it with the same type of wire wheel and occasionally a grinding wheel. Eventually I put a hole in the bottom of the kettle. To replace JUST THE KETTLE is over $2000 plus shipping. I had mine repaired but it changed the shape and bottom of the kettle. Lost time and money and the kettle is never the same. Think about it - metal on metal is abrasive and it takes small amounts off the kettle every time. I learned a very hard lesson. Gold Medal makes a cleaning powder that I tried and I could not believe how good it worked. Much better than the grinding with no effort. And no, I do not work for Gold Medal - lol. I am more than 10 years with 3 different machines and using that grinder was the worst mistake I have made in those 10 years. Don't take the chance! I tried a hard non-metal paint removing tool on my drill and that worked OK but clogs up with sugar. I also tried just heating the kettle with nothing in it to burn off everything, and that works ok. But the solution from Gold Medal has been the best way I have found to clean the kettle fast. It is called Heat N Kleen. Good Luck

I’m in love with the business idea I would love to start my own soon I have been thinking of this for months since I’ve seen my local drive in theater doesn’t have anything type of vendor around

Schmidty, How much money do you make in a season?

Where do you purchase your cotton candy containers from?

Is the equipment (especially your kettle) light enough that you don't need a ramp to load up in the ford transit?? I Really can't decided if I should get a trailer or some time of van. I'm concerned it's too heavy.

You are such a good person. I love watching your videos. Thank you for all of your helpful information!

Just curious, why do you think the 160 quart is better than 80 quality taste wise? Is is the shape of bowl?

I make my own sugar flavors with organic sugar

My husband made me a sweet cotton candy cart so I can sit at kids eye level

The outside of my booth is just fine. Negative and dumbass comments will be deleted. Everything is cleaned and organized for the day. Eventually I'll get new signs. But the front of my booth is not dirty. Go fuck yourself.

If you fold it in right you can fit 1 ball per container

Hi Dan, I want to ask you something but I wanted to ask you in private. is there a way I can contact you? Thanks, Bob

Y don't u take off whit screen

Thank you for sharing these tips with us. You are super smart and thoughtful.

Can someone please tell me why whenever I make cotton candy it always shrivels up within minutes? I've been thinking of starting a cotton candy business. I bought a cotton candy machine for home use to to try and get the feel of it first. The cotton candy always starts out great, (round and fluffy)but within 5 minutes or less, it shrivels up😢. I don't know where I am going wrong. Would be helpful with any tips.

The "starts with S" - Saccharin? This is sometimes used in China... ubiquitous artificial sweetener, but it's a carcinogen so not recommended. Some of the Chinese websites that sell these sell little packets of "popcorn saccharin". I plan on experimenting with some of the more modern aritificial sweeteners and salt to see if I can't popcorn-cannon a load of "kettle" corn! BTW, you can puff all kind of things like rice etc. Also, I think it would be a fun project to use a gas burner, some kind of power-driven spinning motor, and an electronic pressure gauge to partially automate the process. The attraction is probably the "Boom". :D

Why are wearing those gloves?

Nothing gross about it. Go troll somewhere else loser.

Gotta stick some sushi rice in there

Awesome

How long does it take you to clean it big job but it is coming off i see.

I know how to clean these kettles Daniel, When I bought mine, I only had to use a steal wire wheel once. Feel free to contact me. I would love to help.

Cool video! What brand is your cotton candy machine?

I hate Carmel it burns so quick

Where do you buy your bags and buckets. Also, what kind of kernels do you use and where to get them?

Where did you get your cooker? I'm looking at getting into this and gathering some ideas. Thanks

❤ can you pop field corn in this ? Love the torch

❤ hi where did you buy this i love your dogs reaction after the pop so 🐶 funny

I was wondering if you could give me an idea about how many 16" bags i would make from 50lb of monster mushroom kernels?

Keep on rocking it Danny! Thanks for your willingness to share your experiences! 👏

It took 30minutes because the cap was not tightened probably

how is it selling?

So. Its funny how I make videos to help people get started and I right away have dumbasses trying to be critical to attack me for no reason. 1) I'm repairing my kettle corn machine I am not serving kettle corn. If I was serving I wear a hat, I use gloves, mask, and I follow heaith deosrtment guidelines. 2) I'm repairing the kettle. The burned sugar went all over my clothes. These clothes I wear to specifically throw sway after. So rather than criticize me like you already know why not watch my other videos before putting your foot in your mouth?

No disrespect fella but those cloths you wear for cooking need burning. You also need to wear some gloves, apron and a hair net. You look more like a mechanic.

You know i don't know why KZfaq recommended this to me but i like the fact small channels get a chance now too to gain some audience. Also never knew popcorn making was a legit business so that is neat!

buy some kettle clean from gold medal and try compound S when using sugar

Hey Schmidty, Haven't talked for a few days. I am beginning to deal with our health department. How many sinks do they typically require in your area? In my area say for a hot dog cart we need 4. with a dedicated handwashing sink. Thanks, brother!

Just found the channel loing the videos thanks for sharing your thoughts and journey!

Hey Dan, Just another question in your professional opinion. The differences between the Sweet machines and Northbend. Greg got me interested in the business too! Northbend promotes that their equipment is all NSF stainless. Do you think this makes a difference between them and the diamond plate from Sweet? Thanks again, brother!

Hey Schmidty, I just came across your channel. Have you ever made candied nuts like Almonds, Pecans, and Cashews in your kettle?

what's good bro i'm thinking about starting this up! someone just told me the buy 50 big pallets of kernels at one time and makes 1000 off each bag does that seem do able ?

Low low heat is the difference maker with Glazepop Caramel. We turn down our gas 5 psi from where we pop Kettle Corn. Another little trick we do is add more oil than normal, and then add some sugar to the mix as well. We never burn it, and it is a bit sweeter. We do the same thing with their Chocolate mix as well.
