    When you say you froth the milk do you have a separate steamer?

    No i heat the milk and then use and electric frother. Bought one in ikea for a euro i think.

    I must admit to really likeing a milk with a cafe cream on top. Fills the mug right to the top.

    Thanks Tony - was waiting for this. Couple this with the Columbian Kenco which is their coffee of the month currently for 3ukp a packet and you get a great deal (9 packets) for 17ukp inc delivery - less than 15c a pod in Euros. I got the same deal last month with the Coffee of the month....was another Kenco.

    As a matter of interest how much is a cup of coffee from these machines?

    If you avail of regular offers as per above it could be as low as 15c approx depending on your tastes.

    Thanks Tony, perfect timing! :)
    I was just about to order £35 worth (£25 after TASSIMO10) to get free delivery - split the order into two deliveries, added a few more packs, used the code twice and got £50 worth of product for £30. That's me sorted for a few months! :D

    Is the Tassimo site running slow for anyone? It always takes ages to load and I get a 504 error sometimes.

    Always, it's not a very good website.

    If the Kenco 100% Columbian is on offer, I would definitely recommend it, my favourite disc so far.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 458 ✭✭metroburgers


    On the website now, have all the packs changed to 8 drink packs as opposed to usual 16 drinks?

    Saw that last night when ordering. I think it is a mistake. If you look at the packets in product screenshot it still says 16 drinks.

    About How much does an expresso for example cost using Tassimo pods versus something similar from Nespresso


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭looder


    I'm after skimming through this thread but can't seem to find the answer but does anybody know a way of buying one of these, in Ireland: https://www.costatassimo.co.uk/basket/address


    Parcel Motel is no good as it's mainland UK only.

    They removed the NI option after the original deal got hammered through Boards.

    ...but in answer to your question, I bought one in Currys. Prices have shot up to ridiculous levels now though.

    If you look at this product (https://www.tassimo.co.uk/Drinks%20Range/CARTE%20NOIRE%20Expresso?eshopProduct=950791) and take into account the current offers (free delivery @ 25ukp instead of 35ukp and 10ukp off) then you you'd get 7 packets of 16 for 16.53ukp delivered = roughly equal to 33.16euro = 18.44 cent inc delivery.

    Worst case at that packet price with no offers you are looking at - 37.90ukp inc delivery for 10 packets = 29.6cents per drink.

    Note the product description above says 8 units per pack but screenshot of packet says 16. Anything I have ordered unless it was Latte or Cappuchino has been 16 units per packet.

    Currys have the T65 Fidelia plus "on offer" at €159.99. I bought one in Argos on Saturday for €112.49.
    Fantastic machine. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

    They have the Charmy and Joy for 89.99euro. They also have the Vivy model for 74.99 but the water capacity is very low.

    That's true, the T65 holds 1.8 L, which is needed for the amount of coffee drank in our house.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,060 ✭✭✭Kenny Logins


    Tesco has the T40 for €79.99, but I think you can knock a tenner off that with an Aldi/Lidl voucher.

    Thanks for that, just ordered. At that price and with shipping it should work out around €55 which is even less that the christmas prices.
    Hopefully it gets delivered.

    how does this machine compare to nespresso? i have one and a dulse gusto.

    I had been looking at getting one of these for some time now after missing out on the Currys €69 offer in December so have had a good bit of time to read reviews and comparisons.

    Most people seem to prefer it to the other brands/models. Generally it seems to be better tasting coffee, easier to use and apparently the Brita filter on it makes a big difference to the taste.

    And judging from the hard water deposits on our kettle, hopefully this will be better both health and taste wise.

    At around €60 and 20 euro credit on capsules I don't think I can go wrong.

    I had an nespresso and it doesn't compare to the Tassimo imho. The nespresso was always cold when drinking it. My sister in law got a brand new one and the temp of coffee was the same as I thought my temp regulator had gone on it.

    You get a nice piping hot cup of coffee from the Tassimo plus you can add more with a touch of a button.

    I have both the Dolce Gusto and the Tassimo.
    The tassimo is far superior.
    I dont know if its because of the machine of just the coffee/ingredients but the tassimo is always better.

    I use a nespresso in work. THey do give a good espresso but i prefer the tassimo and theres more choice with the tassimo

    It's worth repeating that tassimo, nespresso are not, as someone said earlier in this thread, a replacement for those that like a ground coffee drink e.g. barista style coffee from a take away, or indeed any common machine that's grinding beans. They don't, imo, have that ''real'' coffee taste.

    I guess its all down to taste but I love the coffee from my tassimo and for it it gives a real coffee taste.

    Having owned one for a few months I think the positive of the Tassimo is the convenience of a quick, very hot mug of decent coffee. It might not be of Barista standard but it still better than the "coffee" served to me in many establishments where I pay 2.50-3.00 for a cup. If you keep an eye on offers on the Tassimo site and regular offers for free shipping it works out very reasonable also price wise.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,737 ✭✭✭Hococop


    Got a tassimo last week and so far I can't complain a lovely coffee every time, just wondering if there is a way to refill the milk pods, not trying to be cheap just with the hot chocolate pods the milk pods aren't the best tasting

    Hey guys

    Bought a Tassimo today but saw it mentioned on a couple of posts that Tassimo do a coffee of the month for a special price, having a lool on their site but can't find it anywhere. Anyone have a link?

    They will email you with these offers when you register. Kenco Columbian was the last offer they had but I think it stopped a few ago so next one should be there soon.

    For the new models, Currys has the Vivy for 69.99€ and the Charmy for 89.99€ which is a decent price.

    If you want something bigger (but older) Argos has the Fidelia Plus (which has a water filter) for 112.49€ and the Fidelia for 86.59€. Argos also gives you 2x12€ vouchers for tassimo.ie .
