CoffeeGeek - Coffee: Home Roasting Talk, First Try with Poppery II (#)

  „I have a Poppery II and it usually roasts a half of cup of green beans, in my kitchen, in under 12 minutes, being somewhere in the second crack when I stop the process.  Roasting with the window open in Winter (as it's called here in Seattle) takes more time than it did last August.“

Why Home Roast? (INeedCoffee.com)

  „Furthermore, unlike homebrewing kits or bread machines, you don't have to make a large equipment investment. I started home roasting by purchasing a West Bend Poppery II hot air popcorn machine. They retail for around $20 US. There are more advanced roasting devices that you can invest in, but you'll get great coffee from any of the available roasting methods.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso: Espresso Blends, Italian Espresso brands in North America

  „The rest of the supermarkets do not sell unground espresso roasts as "espresso" at all; you could find "French" roast and it would be the only one "espresso-like". The ground espresso will be something cheap, the most expensive from them being Cafe Bustelo or such.“

  „If you do, it works fine. But what if you prefer a dark roast and not the tangier, more caffeinated light roasts? Tough luck. This machine uses one category of bean only.“

Further Reading and Resources

  „Because people use their microwaves to make popcorn nowadays, there are tons of poppers of the correct design available from $2 to $5. The names to look for are the Poppery II, West Bend Corn Popper, Hamilton Beach Popaire 2, The Popcorn Pumper, and JC Penny brand. You can't be guaranteed they will work, but it's just a few bucks! The best one ever is the original West Bend Poppery, ugly as heck, but it will work forever...More Links for people in the Coffee Trade:“

Roast Your Own (INeedCoffee.com)

  „While this works, it produces many scorched beans. I recommend beginning with a West Bend Poppery II. This little hot air popcorn popper makes a great roaster. It has the air entering from the sides through vents and has a clear top which allows you to monitor the progress of the roast.“
