West Bend Stir Crazy Popcorn Popper?

[Zeasor]

The cover has a well on top for adding butter onto the popcorn. Does anyone know WHEN during the popping process the butter should be put into the well and in what FORM (chunks, melted...)?

I use to have one similar to that one, I use to put my cold butter, (maybe room temp.) in right at the beginning, it will melt as the corn pops. It has been a long time, I have a Whirley-pop now.
