How to choose the right 12 volt coffee maker for your next trip.
Every 12 volt coffee maker has a 12V DC plug that goes into what was once described as the cigarette lighter socket on the dash of your car, RV or boat. Other than the plug, there are a lot of differences between the various types of 12 volt coffee maker you can buy.Some are suited for RVs or boats with a family of coffee drinkers on board. Others are designed for lone road warriors who want to be able to brew of quick cup of coffee at any time. For RV and boat use you can find regular drip brewers that make up to 12 cups of coffee at a time. A typical brewer of this type is the Max Burton Coffee To Go 12-cup Coffee Maker . If you want something smaller, that will brew one cup of coffee at a time, try something like the Wagan Personal Mini Coffeemaker . These types of coffee makers all plug into a dashboard of some kind. But there are other ways to make coffee while you travel. So long as you already have a kettle with you, you can boil the water in the kettle and then make your coffee in a French Press or, my personal favorite, the AeroPress Coffee and Espresso Maker . The Aeropress is particularly well suited to travel because it is made from a high impact plastic is pretty much indestructible.
