Being battery power conscious as we all are you need to find a coffeemaker that only draws power for five minutes or so when brewing. Then it pours up into a stainless steel thermal carafe... Keeps coffee hot for us all day long...
I have been getting the Cuisinart DGB-600BC Grind & Brew, Brushed Chrome from AMAZON and buy the refurbished ones. This is not the USED ones-this list both). Only cost around $50-60 bucks and all of the refurbished part are brand new. This will last me around 3 years... They may have newer models of this now...
being a bean coffee lover this model grinds and brews a 10-cup supply in around 5 minutes. Then all brewing power is turned off. We always bring the same brand bottled water with us for the coffee so it always tastes the same...
This is the greatest yet for when you are using the 2KW Honda type generator for re-charging your battery bank. Only have five minutes to worry about consuming your power...
Has worked well for us over the years...
