How many quarts does half a cup of kernels make?
Half a cup of popcorn kernels typically yields about 1.5 to 2 quarts of popped popcorn, depending on the popping method and the specific type of kernels used. This is because popcorn expands significantly when heated, roughly multiplying its volume by 3 to 4 times.

How many pieces of popcorn in the microwave maker?
The number of popcorn kernels in a microwave popcorn maker can vary based on the brand and size, but typically, a standard serving is about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of kernels, which can yield around 7 to 15 cups of popped popcorn.

How many kernals of popped popcorn is in 5 cups?

I was just wondering this myself, needing to make 24 C of popcorn on the stove. I found a good rule of thumb is that each 1 Tablespoon of kernels will give you slightly over 1 cup of popped popcorn.
Do I Need a Popcorn Maker?
As long as you use regular popcorn kernels with nothing added to them, it really makes no difference in the taste of the popcorn if you pop it in the microwave or in a popcorn maker. However, if you are using the packets of microwave popcorn that have added flavorings and fat, I would say that plain popcorn tastes better. If you want to make popcorn conveniently but without additives, I would recommend putting about a quarter of a cup of popcorn kernels in a regular brown paper bag along with about a teaspoon of vegetable oil and using that to pop the popcorn in the microwave instead of the microwave popcorn bags from the grocery store. You simply add the kernels and oil in the bag, seal it up tightly, then microwave for two to three minutes, until you hear the kernels stop popping. This is significantly healthier, cheaper, and better-tasting than store-bought popcorn.
How can you reheat unpopped popcorn kernels?
To grow corn from popcorn kernels you must first sterilize them by taking the butter off of them. Then place them in a wet paper towel, using about four kernels for a experiment. Then fold the cloth so that you can see the kernels trough the cloth. Then place them in a small cup and water them frequently and keep up with the results.
