Is anyone on here using a chaff collector on their homebrew coffee
roaster?

Ok, I have been looking for plans to build a chaff collector for my large roaster. The one I am thinking of  may basically be just a drum that the smoke goes through and the chaff settles out into (clean out door at the bottom) but I have not found one to inspect or plans anywhere online. I did find a cool afterburner plans but at like $1500 in parts and the potential to melt steel I think I will hold off until later on that one.

Aside from the chaff collector ( a little metal cup with with holes in it) on  my Nesco , I also use my dust buster to suck away any remaining chaff from a newly roasted batch. Perhaps a shopvac could be used to the same effect on a larger roaster.
