Why not just run the generator in the morning and run your keurig then?
Sure, during the day when running a genset is allowed but I sure wouldn't run mine at my usual rise hour of 6am. :R The solution is simple - either make coffee by any alternative method that doesn't require electrical power at all OR ditch the power sucking Keurig and use a simple drip coffee maker that doesn't require anywhere near as much power. For camping we've got a simple 5 cup machine that draws 505 watts over a 6 minute period to make coffee, whether we're running on shore power or my single G27 feeding a 1000 watt PSW inverter. We leave our power sucking Tassimo at home and surprising as it may seem do manage to survive camping without it. :W
He didn't say what time he got up. I was gonna mention not even using the keurig as I don't care them at all (even though we have one in the house). We a malitta pour over cone. If we are hooked up to electricity, we heat water in an electric kettle. If not, then we heat on the stove. Simple and cheaper than what the keurig costs.Especially if you are buying the k cups and not using the reusable ones...opps here goes number 24 of how to make coffee...sorry...lmao
