My Father has a coffee pot (dispenser, not brewer) that heats up 20 cups of coffee in just a few (maybe 10?) minutes. It's the same thing as the old stove-top coffee brewers, just without the capability to brew, and it's electric. I'm going to get a KaW someday and see just what it burns, but I suspect it's no more than a couple hundred watts, much more efficient than the 1kW microwave at 1min per cup of coffee.

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
