I just thought I would share my cunning plan with everyone, as I think it is a good one. If it turns out not to be, then it will only have cost about 30 coffees...
This morning Oct 7, Aldi has a small portable oven for sale for $59.99, with a rotisserie function built in. The rotisserie shaft itself is a measly 6mm square... but this is where it all falls into place.
I'm not sure how long this link will last:

And then..... on eBay, you can buy a cylindrical rotisserie cage, which suits a 6mm square rotisserie shaft:

As you can see, it fits right, and holds an easy 400-500g, if you are greedy, and want to roast a lot at once.
The cage comes from China, so that will take a while to arrive, and I have already purchased the oven.
For $120 or thereabouts, I think I can do worse, and it would surely have to be better than spooning 1/3 of a cup of green beans into a popcorn blaster at a time.
I think with a little experimenting with the temperature settings, I should be able to hit the 12-14 minute roast, depending on the depth of roast.
Fingers crossed. Updates as they happen.
