Believe me, it has taken a while to get out of the tent style of camping. We fully intended to use the trailer like a hard sided tent when we first got it. After one cold trip in the fall and Honey found the thermostat. Since then it has been a slow progression to glamping out in the middle of no where.
So I'll keep making my coffee my way when I get up at dawn. It's quieter and I like really strong coffee, unlike the tea looking stuff that comes out of the auto drip. However if toys makes Honey enjoy camping more then I'm fine with it if not just a bit embarrassed.
Now short term things like a microwave, hair dryer, vacuum and yes even the dreaded auto drip are no sweat for the system. I really do have to draw the line at frying pans and toaster ovens though. My poor little inverter bank would up and quit.
I do like the idea of a thermal carafe, that warming plate slows the recovery time down and with my luck, Honey will want to nuke a danish too.
