oh, so it's like Gevalia?

[Elphaba]

it can take their coffee, or others, but is a seperate company. I don't get them in a "plan" as I don't want them automatically coming, but I like it as I can make so many different things, and I am buying much less Starbuck's.......and I'll admit it, when I bought it, the lady at the store forgot to charge me for it, only charged me for the coffee........so I got it free. I guess that makes me evil, oh well.

You got the machine free?

It looks nice. Me and ivan don't do coffee though.

We have a similar machine called Senseo.
I guess it works in about the same way.

I had a Senseo and returned it, didn't like the taste, also had the bullet looking brand, returned it....love this

Fiction, this doesn't just do coffee, does tea, hot chocolate, and then the coffees, regular, Cappuchino, lattes, etc...and yes got it free, lol

I Tassimo too. The tea and the coffee is great, I wanna try the hot choc.

[Elphaba]

Posted: 8/5/06 at 9:11pm

rev, the hot choc is ok....not the best, but ok....I have not tried the tea, placed an order today.......love the various coffees......although the first time I tried cappuchino, I had that mil everywhere.....ugh, guess I should have read the directions first!

Do you have to use their own coffee/tea/chocolate bags? Or can you use someone elses?

When I saw the title of this thread I thought it was something sexual. Shows you where my mind is these days.

fiction, you use theirs, BUT.......Maxwell House, and some European coffee houses also make the disks specifically for this one......

Yenta.......make sure you have safe Tassimo, lolol

Oh my god

I want one.

BF gave me the Tassimo for Christmas last year, and it's been used twice daily ever since. I LOVE it. My favorite are the Cappacino's...Gevalia. I did call recently and ask about future coffees and the girl said they should be releasing flavored coffee such as hazelnut this month....I hope so. I'd recommend the machine to anyone who needs their daily coffee. I've saved a lot of money by not going to Starbucks as often.

Just bought...


yaya.

My mother uses the french press

[nomdeplume]

Posted: 8/6/06 at 1:13am

I pianissimo.

Does that count?

[bwaysinger]

I have the Senseo and quite like it. It's, as with many of these things, dependent upon which coffee you buy.
I also bought a non-Phillips item that lets you put your own coffee into the Senseo to brew single cups. It didn't work so well until I finally bought a cappuccino tamper (for my cap machine) and used it on the Senseo filter. It works like a charm and makes much better coffee now.
When I'm brewing for multiple people, though, I still do the old hot water/French press/carafe method.

[Elphaba]

Posted: 8/6/06 at 11:05am

bway, I just never liked the taste of the Senseo products, this tastes much better.....I tried Senseo first, returned it, then tried Melitta...returned that. This is the only one that for me, tastes good.

Undi, dear, nice to see you!

Nom, perhaps whe should pianissimo together one of these days, if I may be so bold......

Yesterday I Tassimoed 4 times, two coffee, one cappuchino, and one hot chocolate.........omg, I have to start going to TA.

And, I am Tassimoing as I type!

I used to do the french press thing, but gladly gave it up for my beloved Tassimo. Hope you enjoy Fabrizio2.

In Budapest, across from the opera house was a store that sold this fancy Italian type of Tassimo thing, and I almost bought one, until I realized getting the discs might be a problem...as they are not sold in the US.

Undi, it's my dirty little secret... ;o)
