How to use

Enter the wattage (pre-filled to about 1000 W, the typical draw for a Coffee Maker), set how many hours per day it runs, and add your electricity rate. WattCost multiplies watts ÷ 1000 × hours × days to get kWh, then multiplies by your rate for the cost.

The warming plate can draw more over an hour than brewing itself — pour and unplug.
