What roaster would you like to build next?

What is your fantasy roaster like? Me? I'm playing around with the idea of using that little centrifugal blower and making a one-pound hot air roaster as a companion for my one-pound sample roaster. 1 pound electric sample roaster, 3 pound direct-flame roaster, both handmade; modified Mazzer Mini grinder, LaSpaziale Vivaldi II automatic espresso machine. When the electricity goes out I make vacpot coffee from beans ground on my Zassenhaus hand grinder, and heat the water with a teakettle on the gas range.

Two parallel glass rectangles where the path of heating chamber, roasting chamber, charge hopper, cooler, de-chaffer and maybe even an after-burner all contained and visible through the glass, and all the charging/dumping door mechanisms controlled electronically. Wa'il. 1 Kg PID'ed gas-fired fluid bed roaster, GS/3MPS, K10F

1/4 Pounder Posts: 50 Joined: June 19, 2013	I'm working on a 1/2lb Electric Drum and a Gas Glass Tube Fluid Bed. Progress has been slow due to limited resources. I'm trying to piece work whenever I can at work.

1 1/2 Pounder Posts: 1128 Joined: February 10, 2011	Right now I'm making a couple of small modifications to my 120V/25A, heat-reclaiming, fluid-bed roaster in an effort to roast one-pound of green coffee beans with 1000 watts of heat in under 15 minutes. Today I'll be running a couple of temperature tests, and if the results are as expected, I'll try a decaf roast, and maybe some 'real' coffee when ET (ambient) gets back to 80?F. : oldgearhead attached the following image: No oil on my beans...
