Solar panel output vs. my morning coffee habit, the numbers shocked me

I ran my 6 kW setup's data against my monthly electric bill and found the panels cover 82% of my usage, but my espresso machine alone eats 11% of that. Found the stat buried in the inverter app's energy breakdown last Thursday, never thought a 15-minute daily ritual would matter that much. Anyone else dig into their appliance-level usage and find something ridiculous?

That 11% math seems off unless your espresso machine pulls 800 watts for a full 15 minutes every morning, most home units run closer to 5 minutes and drop to standby after. Check the actual runtime in the app instead of assuming the default wattage.
