West Bend 82306 Stir Crazy 6-Quart Electric Popcorn Popper (

Q: Has anyone used this model for roasting coffee?

Out of the box? No. It has a thermal cutoff switch rated for 350F (you need 400-420 or so), so it will start to, but won't get you very far past first crack. What I did was put a piece of thin fiberglass cloth (and I mean the thinnest stuff you can find at a hobby shop for model planes) between the thermal cutoff switch and the bottom of the pan. What I will probably do is swap the thermal switch for one with a higher temperature rating. This is definitely an at your own risk, fire hazard sort of thing, but it seemed like a more reasonable thing to do than put a convection oven on top of it. Use it outside on concrete. There will be smoke and coffee chaff. Give it an occasional shake too, don't rely on the stirring rod or you won't get an even roast, but I'm doing 3-4 scoops at a time and it's working really well.

Q: I love my popcorn popped in bacon grease (I know...but it is soooo good!) Would it work in the Stir Crazy?

Yes, yes you can. I have done it in the past with no problems in the Stir Crazy. Popcorn feels a little different after it cools. That's about it.

Q: most of these popcorn popers say they are dishwasher safe, including the more expensive West Bend. Is this one also dishwasher safe?

I would say the bottom is NOT dishwasher safe. The top should me. The thing only takes a minute to clean using normal hand washing. Really as easy as can be. I don't bother with a dishwasher on this

Q: This is 2014. Any improvements since these reviews were written?

Major improvement over the older model is that the stir bar no longer rides along a ridge scraping Teflon or metal pieces into the popcorn.
