They make a version of cheap roaster like my Cafemasy that uses a blade like the one in that popper and it tumbles the beans well, videos of the smaller roasts look good. It has a honey comb base that I think helps catch the bean to get it to tumble though. I think this roaster might just push the bean if on the flat surface but changing speed and direction might help alleviate that issue?
