TL;DR Summary

Keurig has introduced a new compostable coffee pod called the K-Round, made from plant-based materials and designed to be fully compostable. However, it only works with the new Keurig Alta coffee machine, which is also compatible with traditional K-Cups. The K-Rounds are the result of a partnership with Swiss manufacturer Delica and are part of Keurig's efforts to reduce environmental impact. The use of algae in the production process is seen as a sustainable approach, although proper disposal and cultivation practices will be important. Both the Keurig Alta and K-Rounds will undergo beta testing before being released to a wider audience.
