I have at least seven levels of coffee backup: Two separate gas
generators and a large inverter in the diesel truck provide three levels
of backup power to keep coffee production devices operating. My kitchen
stove and camper stove are both LP fueled, so they can do coffee water
without power, and I also have a separate liquid fueled camp stove as
another option. If for some reason all of those failed, I could collect
some firewood.
