The DVC Resorts are not changing to pod style coffee makers. If there is a 4-cup brewer in the studio and you would prefer a 12-cup, call housekeeping using the button on the in-room phone and they will bring one.
Isn't that strange about BCV? Their studios always had the big 10-12 cup coffee pots, up until a couple years ago. I remember that at VWL 10 years ago, they had the 4 cup size, and when we switched over to OKW and got the big size, we were so happy. I don't know what size VWL has in their studios now. But I'm very disappointed at BCV that it seems as if they've gone from the big coffee pots down to the 4 cup size in the last few years.
