Do the math & you can see why 12volt coffee pots are junk. My 120 volt coffee pot is 1025 watts. That is 8.5 amps. A comparable 12 volt coffee would be 85 amps.
Yeah, and 85 amps will suck the life out of a standard group 24 camper house battery in, oh, something like 15 or 20 minutes tops. Just about enough time to make ONE pot o' brew. Not good.
I agree with everyone else. Propane is the way to go. Trying to make coffee with electricity while off the grid is a losing proposition, whether you try it with a 12v coffee maker or a 120 volt one on an inverter. Either way, you are not going to like the results. Propane, however, delivers the goods. While you are still young enough to enjoy them.
