Experimental Coffee Roaster
I have been roasting coffee in this popper. The problem is the 'lid' started melting. After looking at what people have done with their popper-roaster, I realize I don't have to be as 'invasive' as they do in modifying the popper. The hole on top that holds the butter cup is 3-in wide, just the size of a can. I attached a 3-in duct elbow with a mesh from a tea insert on one end (to serve as a chaff collector). It works well but surprisingly it takes longer to roast and doesn't get as dark as before. Maybe the airflow is too good. The plastic remains nice and cool though. I will keep tinkering.
