I roast my coffee in a wok with a wooden spoon, then shake it outside in a strainer. If you just wanna taste it, it doesn’t have to be expensive. It will be better with an actual roaster, but the jump in quality is worth it even with just a basic pan. You need a hood or some good ventilation though fyi, it smokes.
I should have tried it with a wok instead of a cast iron pan, it was difficult to keep it moving. I’ve heard using a metal colander with a heat gun works well too.
