Technische details

Hoe popcorn maken

Uit de manual , wordt nog nog aangepast :

  • Turn on two switches.
  • Allow kettle to warm for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Place one measure of oil in kettle (1/3 cup). Immediately add one measure of raw popcorn (8 oz.) plus seasoning salt. Pull lid closed to prevent stray kernels. (Lid is held in place by magnet directly above the kettle.)
  • While corn is popping, keep front operator doors slightly ajar to prevent fogging. Keep hopper door at “out” position to aid in catching stray popcorn.
  • Allow corn to pop until popping ceases, usually when 3-4 seconds lapse between pops. Then pour remaining popped corn from kettle by rotating handle clockwise 1/3 turn and pulling downward.
  • Repeat steps 1-5 for additional batches.
  • Turn KETTLE switch to OFF position when finished preparing popcorn; POWER or LIGHT switch may remain ON to display and heat popcorn.

Hoe te schoonmaken

  • Pan laten afkoelen!
  • Kabel van de ketel los trekken, deksel omhoog, pan naar beneden, scharnier pin er uit en pan uithalen
  • Pan ontvetten, *niet* onderdompelen in water, verwarmings-element kan daar niet tegen. Mocht toch water tussen de binnen en buiten pan komen, graag melden, moet *lang* daarna drogen.
  • Bodem plaat er uit, alle popcorn er uit halen en hele binnenkant ontvetten.
  • Alles weer in elkaar zetten.

Hacken & ToDos

  • Ja, dat kan! Overleg even aub met User:Gori eerst. Hieronder lijstje van dingen die hoe dan ook ooit moeten/kunnen.
  • Versterker reparereren/vervangen, is mogelijk opgeblazen tijdens Sha 2017
  • Bij een van de led strips is een kabeltje los, weer vastzetten.
  • De neopixel strips glitchen, vermoedelijk door signaal fouten in de overgang naar parallelle bedrading. Ooit goed maken.
  • Toffere licht effecten in programmeren
  • Meer leuke muziek op de SD kaart zetten
