On the road with a Keurig Coffee Maker

I've already done the search and didn't learn much.

I'm taking a cross country trip with my tt and would love to take the Keurig from the house. Some say to dump all the water then refill it and flush. That's too much work. Can the Keurig be lashed down in an upright position with the tank less than full and bounce down the highway. I would like this unit for on the road when you want to get an early start and not mess with dumping and rinsing a pot let alone waiting on the pot to brew. I like a fast cup or two in the morning.

  • In the motorhome it sits right on the counter top while we drive. Went from Buffalo, NY to Florida and back that way. Wife made coffee while I was driving.

  • Do you have to take your current Kuerig?

    I bought my wife the baby one for a gift this year. It's the one where you put in the one cup's worth of water before starting the cycle. Very easy and there's no tank to worry about.

    I imagine it would travel very well.
  • My wife and I just completed a 6,000 mile tour up the east coast then to mid America, down to Missouri and Texas and home to Florida. We were on interstates, US highways and state and county roads. We found the roads rougher than ever this year. We have a Keurig that we left at home. I don't think the Keurig would have survived our trip.
  • Leaving the Keurig on the counter all depends on what type of RV you have. I have a Jayco Eagle with a rear kitchen. NOTHING will stay on my counter even if driving 2 miles down the road. I've had sink stoppers come out of the kitchen sink drain and find them almost in the front bedroom.
  • I leave my Keurig on the counter, full of water or not, and it stays right there, and it's been on some rough rides. My counter is forward of my axles.
