Dee - may I encourage you to invest $3-5.00 at a Goodwill store for a
hot air popcorn popper that injects hot air in the sides of the
chamber, causing the popcorn kernals to rotate (vice getting thrown up
in the air)?  A remarkably simple way to get started roasting your
own; I roast 3/4 C. of green at a time which lasts 2 1/2 days.
It's fun and very easy

Although today's humidity in Falls Church is very high, the wind is
calm and the temp is up, so I can go on the back deck and roast.

When the temp is low and/or the wind is high, I have a  foam cylinder
I place around the popper. I leave a 6" gap between the popper and the
foam. I understand others simply put the popper in a cardboard box to
insulate it and protect from wind.

Regards, Mike
