  • Modding a popcorn roaster does seem to be a popular route!

    I guess the Hive is a bit removed from a frying pan in terms of the cover providing heat retention, leading to more roasting by convection as opposed to conduction (the cover is also their apparent smoke elimination/reduction solution), so less chance of scorching.

    I don't know what frying pans you have, but my arms would likely fall off if I tried to roast beans with a frying pan for 10 mins or so!

    Will hopefully report back on the hipster mini ceramic covered tea leaf roaster/frying pan this weekend!

  • I did try the frying pan method years ago. They roasted better than I thought they would considering, although I did get the scorch marks so the cover on the Hive does seem to be sensible. I didn't try drinking it though...
