[Electronics-talk] the keurig 2.0

Fri Oct 2 00:30:47 UTC 2015

Do all of them have water filters?  Mine is almost three years old.  It's 
the one with the 72-ounce caraffe.  If they all do, where would I find it? 
Pam.

Hi all,

I saw the new Keurig 2.0 yesterday. I don't understand the caraffe.
How is it different? Is seting the cup size part of an onscreen menu,
and if so, can it be done by memorizing key presses?

Feeling like I might stick with one of the originals. If I drink
coffee it's one cup a day usually. But you can make hot chocolate in
it as well! Oh and I figured out where to put the water, but where is
the water filter normally housed?
