Well, if you think about it a moment you will have to realise that there is no escape for chaff, there is no provision for removing the smoke and the advert says you will enjoy the irresistable smell of freshly roasted coffee throughout your house. Of course, roasting almonds and grilling steaks with it are definitely positives. :twisted:

I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!

Hello Bruce, Cakey and Slimboy,

This is a cheap China product,
I don't mean all products made in China are cheap.
But I have searched their main online shopping website.
99.999% espresso products could not compared with Western ones until this minute.
Except the cups, I mean the mid-low price products.
Thanks for sharing.

I've stumbled upon it before, even tried to email superverbimmler (lol?), but received no answer. I tried scouring the net for reviews or just plain opinions, alas to no avail. If you see his history/feedback there are lots who has purchased this. I seem to remember someone writing something less than positive about it wrt coffee roasting.
Bottom line is, I stopped considering it. Even though it's only 70 EUR. I'd be interested in hearing from someone here who has tried it, though! :)
Any technology distinguishable from magic, is insufficiently advanced.

do you think it will do all three at once?

a plate of fresh roasted almonds, a nice steak and a good cup of coffee and only one drum to wash up afterwards

the almonds and the steak would be smoked of course and surely the juices would soak up all the chaff?
