Until the late 1800’s, people roasted their coffee at home. Popcorn poppers and stove-top frying pans were favored.
Bo Bradshaw Chris… I’m desperately seeking an accurate description of, or photo of an eighteenth century popcorn popper. Anything you have on the history of these in the 1760-1810 time frame would be greatly appreciated. Thanx! Bo 0 Reply April 18, 2006
Chris Tingom Sorry, can’t help. Just ‘cuz I posted a trivia about roasting coffee in the 1800s makes me an expert on eighteenth century popcorn poppers, I guess? 0 Reply April 18, 2006
