With the introduction of the Keurig 2.0 line of machines came the ability to now brew a full carafe of coffee, instead of just a single cup. In order to achieve this larger brewing size Keurig developed larger carafe pods. These pods allow users to brew up to four cups carafe of coffee unlike single K-Cup pod which allows brewing of only one cup.
