This is what I use
I'm not sure it's the same brand, but it seems like it's the same one I've had for over 15 years. I like that it has multiple uses/configurations.
I use the inside pot of a pasta cooker. https://www.amazon.com/Excelsteel-Quart-Stainless-Muti-Cookware-Encapsulated/dp/B002CGSYB2/ref=sr_1_10?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1469358097&sr=1-10&keywords=pasta+pot. I found mine at a thrift store for a buck or two.
After dumping the beans I place a small desktop fan @ 10 in diameter on top with the fan speed set on high. The face of the fan is the exact diameter of the pot and rests on the rim without being held. I shake the beans for 15 seconds or so to accelerate cooling. Gets everything to room temperature in less than a minute, depending on ambient temperature.
