Great tip on the Home Roaster. I never would have guessed that you could use a Popping Machine to roast my green beans. Bugger I gave mine away. I might have to get a new one just to try it out.

Regina,
I asked Doug if you keep the top- thingy on while roasting beans…As per Doug “yes – I keep the “thingy” on while roasting – it keeps the chaff from randomly blowing all over the place. BTW, ALWAYS roast outdoors – otherwise, be prepared for the smoke and the chaff…”

BTW- I just swiped that pic from ebay. It’s not a picture of Doug’s “bean-popper.”

Well now that that is settled, I’ll be searching my mom’s kitchen for that popper! We had one! I remember it! The only real question, is my mom’s pack rat abilities still in tact for me to find it?

Does the plastic top go on while roasting or not? I see it’s not in the picture and figure the thermometer would not have a good place otherwise. Trying to visualize here… Air Popper repurposing! LOVE IT! ~Regina
