BIGGI Popcorn

Gold Medal is invested in providing the latest technologies that will enhance the popping process. Gold Medal machines are designed with a focus on safety, simple operation and ease of cleaning and long-term durability, all to help you produce the absolute best-tasting popcorn.

Key features include:

Power-off control: Turns of a machine after 15 minutes of idle time, eliminating electricity wastage, reducing wear and tear on the kettle and extending the life of the heating element.
E-Z Kleen kettles: Kettles with a stainless steel cooking surface, making it simple to maintain and long lasting.
Popclean (trademark): This unique system traps and filters steam smoke and oil vapors created during the popping process, while still allowing you to enjoy the irresistible popcorn aroma.
Twin-arm suspension: Double-hung, twin-arm kettle suspension helps to prevent accidental oil spills and gives more work room within the cabinet.
Flexipop (trademark): Pop half batches during non-peak times, then flip a switch to pop twice as much for high-demand periods, ensuring high-efficiency productivity.
Uni-Maxx (trademark): A unified kettle and heating element working together to provide the lowest energy consumption and maximum popping capacity.
