The microwave that came with my house is the first time I’ve ever had a microwave that had perfectly working popcorn setting. It has never burnt a bag of microwave popcorn.

There are many buttons on my microwave. I have paid no attention to any of them but I know hitting the one at the bottom-right makes numbers go up by 30s per boop, while food go warm.

My microwave popcorn recipe is:

  1. Put in
  2. Boop liberally so you know it's over 5 mins, probably 4–5 days
  3. When popcorn pops average about one every 3s, start counting to five
  4. If you reach five, serve
