One thing though, I try and not think too often about how many KWH per
year I'm wasting by their keeping the water at brewing temperature all
day and night. I did try using little "plug in" timers to turn them off
overnight but those damn timers only lasted a few months before they
either konked out or started making annoying whirring noises.


They have a combination insulation/heating blanket for the keep warm
to make up for the static heat loss, so I doubt it is drawing very
many watts during stand by time.
