Keurig coffee makers for the RV

We use the k15 as well. Works good. We have a bigger one at home with a reservoir.

I would have the K130 as it is just 700 watts. But I am not a coffee drinker. DW drinks premixed iced coffee on the road. Our home Keurig stays at home.

I have my first cup at 5am when i wake up, then one about an hr later. My wife has her cup at about 7am. Then i have my last fix about 7 30ish with breakfast. I like my coffee stronger, my wife likes weaker, niether of us want hours old coffee.

The solution - original Keurig 10 single cup for the Jayco and the bigger Keurig at home.

She gets hers her way, I get mine my way no need to compromise.

WIN WIN

Got a K200 for the girlfriend. Run it off the 2000 pure sine with remote and 2 group 31 AMGs. Pulls about 130 amps for a few minutes. 30 minutes later the solar panels have recharged that.
No noise from gen, and "free" power.

I dont drink coffee but it does also make hot chocolate and just hot water for instant soups, etc.
Plus like said, hundreds of different cups with their own flavors for different people.

Thanks for the sermon.

Well, I can recommend that you DON'T buy the cheapest off-brand single cup coffee maker you find. I ended up with one that was on clearance at a local grocery store (HEB). While it was quite inexpensive ($18), it takes about a month to make a single cup of coffee. OK, maybe that's an exaggeration, but it doesn't preheat the water. It pumps from the reservoir to the heating chamber, and then warms up before it dispenses. You can bet it's almost 7 to 8 minutes before the life-giving juice begins to flow from the machine.

As to the question of why anyone prefers a single-cup coffee maker, have you considered that there may be only a single caffeine addict in the RV? And, there are couples who have widely divergent tastes when it comes to coffee. I like (well, love actually) strong, dark, bold (thick?) coffee, while my brother prefers the thin and weak girly-stuff when he visits.

Why should I???

If I like my coffee from a Keurig, and I like to watch movies when camping, and I like to have air conditioning, why should I??

OP asked a question. Some people answered and others decided they needed interject how there style of camping is so much better!! This forum never gets old

I think JimK's post requires a new topic. Pretty sure the OP just wanted to hear from Keurig users.

So how many nights do you spend in your RV JimK? We're in ours from April 1 through Dec 1, so having as many conveniences from home as possible are important to us. For one week, or a weekender, your idea holds water, but NOT for everyone.

Because everybody is different. Some people like to rough it in tents, some need the convenience of home in their RV. No right or wrong here, life would be boring if we all wanted the same things. I feel happy that my wife likes our full hookups and some comforts of home when we camp. :B
