If you are looking for a quick hot drink then this is one of the easiest, fasted and most efficient machines to use. In this machine the water is pumped up and into the coffee pod. It comes into the pod via a narrow hole at the edge, This filters through the coffee in the capsule and comes out through a bigger hole in the center. There is filter paper at the base of the capsule that stops the ground coffee from falling through just leaving the coffee brew to drip through into your mug.
A coffee pod machine is all about getting a great cup of coffee with minimal fuss. Preferably with the touch of a button. It has just one button, which multifunctions as the power switch, start switch, and descaling programme switch.
This Tassimo offers a height adjustable and removable cup stand with stainless steel drip tray. This allows you to easily use a wide range of cup types, although it struggles to accommodate tall latte glasses and travel mugs. One downside of receiving this lovely new coffee pod machine is that you may not be able to use it straight out of the box. Many users also report that the instructions supplied with it are confusing and difficult to understand.
The machine reads the barcode, and delivers the right amount of water, at the right temperature, for perfect coffee, every time. The machine is nice and compact with relatively few buttons simplicity is good, in our world.
At first glance, a Tassimo looks like great value. This makes the disks a lot cheaper than a brew from your local coffee shop. The discs or pods are widely available, and in so many flavours that you are spoiled for choice.
Each cup of coffee takes around 90 seconds to make, meaning this is just as fast as boiling the kettle. The Tassimo is so easy to keep clean. If you want to recycle your Tassimo pods, you can. The pods and wrapping materials are cleaned, melted into hard plastic and remoulded into new products. These products can be bought via TerraCycle. If you do want to use this type of coffee machine, the best option is to buy a Nespresso machine and use compostable coffee pods.
I know people who rave about the taste of the coffee from the Tassimo, so while it might not be to my personal taste, it could be perfect for you. But for us, the best option has been to use our regular espresso machine, with ESE pods. These are paper-based pods, a bit like teabags. This means you get the convenience of a Tassimo, but with your favourite coffee, hot frothy milk AND a clean conscience. I hope you found our Tassimo review helpful!
Have you tried a Tassimo? This begs the question: do their pods offer a premium experience? Their branded collaborations, such as the Costa caramel latte, absolutely match up to their costlier high street equivalents, effectively giving the user an expensive drink at a moderately expensive price. However, users who want a machine to make simpler coffee drinks, such as an Americano, will likely find an alternative, such as a machine compatible with Nespresso pods, more cost-effective.
The pods are recycled in the UK by a company called TerraCycle, which specialises in turning difficult-to-recycle materials into hard plastics. Unfortunately, these centres are unevenly distributed throughout the UK, with plenty of options in London, the south and the east of England, but only two locations north of Leeds, just one in north Wales and none in Cornwall.
An instruction leaflet packaged with the Vivy 2 should be updated to reflect the option to recycle T-pods. At the moment, it simply depicts a user throwing a used pod into a litter bin.
We were pleased to discover the machine itself also comes in predominantly recyclable packaging, and is packaged space-efficiently. How to make cold brew coffee How to make iced coffee Coffee types explained. Looking for an early Christmas gift idea?
