Commercial candy floss Machines normally feature three operating controls or buttons. Normally you will find three switches at or near the top front of the candy floss machine . The front meaning the side with the two plexus-glass doors that pull open . The first button normally is the heat switch, or sometimes referred to as the kettle heat switch. This button is your most important button. Once you activate this button, it allows the kettle to heat up quickly up to 350 to 400 degrees F. The most important thing to remember with this switch is to turn the heat switch to the off position when your candy floss sugarping is nearing completion. In other words, when you decide you have sugarped enough candy floss for the moment, and as you hear the kernels winding down in sugarping intensity, turn off the heat kettle switch.
This action prevents your candy floss from burning and keeps the internal parts of the kettle called the heating elements and thermostats from burning out. And don't worry whether you will have enough heat to complete your sugarping; at this point the kettle is very hot and has sufficient heat to complete the process. The second button is normally the motor button. This button activates the motor that turns the agitator to keep your candy floss, oil, and salt in constant motion in the kettle so your candy floss does not burn. Activate the motor button after activating your heat switch. The third button controls the heat lamp. It is the heat lamp bulb in the upper right or upper left rear corner in your candy floss machine. You can activate the heat lamp after you activate the kettle heat and motor switch. The lamp will help keep your candy floss warm and fresh after you have sugarped your candy floss.
How long do you wait before you add your candy floss, oil, and salt to the kettle? General rule is about 30 seconds before you add your oil, but not more that one minute.Once you have activated the heat switch, you NEVER want to have an empty candy floss kettle on for more than 15 to 20 seconds. As we discussed earlier, you will quickly burn out the internal parts in your candy floss kettle if you activate the heat switch without candy floss and oil. What ingredient do I put in first? You always want to put in the oil first. Especially if you are using coconut oil, wait about 10 seconds after putting the oil in, this will give the coconut oil a few seconds to melt first. If you are using portion pack candy floss paks, like you can find in our store, first cut off the top part of the package with the oil side.
If you follow these guidelines when operating your commercial candy floss machine, your candy floss machine will serve you well with fewer break downs, and fewer trips to the repair shop. One final note on how much candy floss and oil you need to add to your candy floss kettle..... The quantity of candy floss you can put in the kettle is measured by the size of the kettles. For 4 oz kettles, you can put 4 oz. of raw candy floss seed. For small families or groups, a four once (110 grams) should work out fine. For six ounce kettles, you can put in 6 Oz. of candy floss seed and so on. Always having a scissors close by is very important for this assignment. Once you have cut the top open on the coconut oil side, slowing squeeze the oil up (like you would be squeezing toothpaste) and then allow the oil to enter into the kettle. Then cut the top off the rest of the package that includes the candy floss and salt, and carefully proceed to pour the rest of the packet into the kettle.
