How to Make Hazelnut Roasted Coffee
I live in Madrid and am about to run out of hazelnut-flavored coffee beans brought over as contraband from the last time we visited the States. I am desperate for my hazelnut-flavored morning fix, but am unwilling to pay $20/pd. to import beans from the UK or risk having a shipment get caught in customs in the next care package from the States.
I would love to know if and how (1) I can roast coffee beans in my apartment and (2) how to make them hazelnut-flavored.
I am not interested in flavored syrup as an alternative.
Thank you!

There's a number of different ways you can add flavouring to coffee. As previously suggested, you can add syrup to the beans or to the finished coffee but the problem with syrup generally is that whilst adding flavouring it also adds sweetness which some may not want.
You could try adding hazlenut essence or oil to the pre-roasted beans and leave for a few days for the flavours to infuse before grinding and using.
Or you could try adding whole hazlenuts to pre-roasted beans in a ratio of about 2:1 beans to hazlenuts by weight and leaving for a few days for the flavours to infuse and then grind and use.
You'd need to experiment with quantities and leave time to find what works best for you.
I don't think it's practical to roast beans in the home.

As for the first question (if you can roast in your apartment), it is certainly possible, and can be very practical. I roast coffee in my apartment with a cheap popcorn popper (similar to this). It is very easy. See sweetmarias.com for a lot of helpful hints.
I would also like to know the answer to the second question!
