Default Boating and Coffee.

I make tea. A lot of it on the water. Somewhat easier, less fuss and
cleanup. In fact, my knickname for a long time with my mutinous crew
was "Captain Twobags".

My wife called from the store where she's doing Christmas shopping.
Same BS every year with kids, grandkids, parents.
Bah, humbug, but there it is.
She saw a 12V drip coffee maker. 20 bucks. I told her to get it.
4-cup. Which means 1 1/2 real cups.
I drink a LOT of coffee, and thermos coffee can't compare to fresh
brewed. We carry our a 10-cup on the road and always brew coffee
in the motel room. A touch of home.
Now I plan to make it when to stop at a rest area, using the cig
lighter to plug it in.
Anybody have experience with 12V coffee makers?
Have to have coffee for my boat overnighters too, so I might as well
be prepared.
Tips?
