Thank you so much for your review. I didn’t know how to use mine and watched various reviews. Yours was the most informative and clear. I was thinking the same thing about how the machine can tell you are using the milk. 😀
I have a tassimo machine and I also put in the espresso pod on its own a few times forgetting the milk pod. I have since learned from my mistakes. I use the Americano pods predominantly in my tassimo machine.
Omg I got the tasmo machine 😊 Here's tip over time it will scale up make sure you buy a scale filter by tasmo otherwise, you end up buying a new machine. I like the machine as it does tea and hot chocolate
Yeah I know what you mean I prefer tea and hot chocolate too, we bought the descaling tablets early on in case for scale with the tassimo and our other coffee machine (Mark likes a lot of coffee🤦♀️😂☕☕☕☕☕☕).
Thank you for pointing out the 1 and 2 discs I hadn't noticed that. Well I've done all that and I've just got a half mug of bitter cappuccino , very disappointing. And by the way my mug is the same size as yours
Oh dear, was there enough water in the tank? Maybe give it a quick clean with the yellow disc. If that doesn't work maybe unplug your Machine fir a couple of mins then try again
Hey, cappuccino has smaller volume than latte in this system (tassimo)// notice the signs (mug-signs) on the pack -- latte is about 300 ml/ cappuccino 150-200ml, I think )
Thanks Alexandra I'm glad you could help answer questions. I mainly drink Hot Chocolate, Mark drinks the coffees the stronger the better. He mainly uses our large one at the moment for Coffee, but we always come back to our good old Tassimo for Hot Chocolate..... we go through phases😁😋 Thanks again for your comment/answer😁
@@MarkandKellys oh, I understand you about phases))) my phase now is mokko -- 3 tsp of Nesquik cacao + 2 tsp of instant coffee (Nescafe/ Tchibo/ or smth else) + some cream (10% fats) + hot water ~300ml)))
Mine got very stuck just from a milk capsule. Maybe something about milk was wrong. Now it reads all coffee bar codes as milk and doses it very wrongly, now it makes heart attack coffees only.
Oh dear, have you tried checking to see if the sensor is damaged? If it doesn't work check to see if it's still under warranty or look online to see if they have a contact telephone number if so give them a call
though you can buy milk {16 pods), Latte etc, do come with the milk(8 pods), with there coffee pods, this equal to 8 drinks per pack. Shop around for pods, Asda UK do 3 packs fpr a £10, B&M and Pound Stretcher have many reduced prices. Also good for adding hot water to porridge pots. soups in packets, lemsips and many other things :)
Elen I've only just seen your question as Kuk kindly answered (thanks Kuk) and you've probably found out by now the milks are included with the coffees if the are lattes, if they are espresso then no, there are no milks in the hot Chocolates either unless they are the Oreo ones, the Oreo ones do come with milk.
Before the coffee pod has finished, hold the button down and it will continue adding hot water, just release before it gets to the top as it will carry on for a few seconds after you release it.
Hi Lisa, it's been a while since we've used that coffee machine as we have a Nesspresso and Velevtiser now. I'm not sure, but I believe once the coffee starts to come through, before it finishes, you can press the button with the cup picture on and it should carry on to give you a full cup
Hi. I want to ask . In this machine can put only one size cup like medium but i can not for example XL cup? Can I selecte the size of cup? Or have the same capacity at all times?
Sorry I have only just seen your question, I only use it for hot chocolate and Mark uses it for Coffee, but other than espresso yes it's seem pretty much one size, but I'm guessing if you want XL then maybe use two pods? That's what Mark used to do when he wanted a large coffee, now we have a different machine so he can make his large coffees :)
I've only just seen your messages sorry I didn't answer sooner. Missing bits? Did you contact them? If it doesn't bother you that's fine, but if it does bother you, contact wherever you got your machine from. You never know they might send you the missing pieces
Your advice to leave the yellow disk in the machine to denote it "is not in use" is dangerous nonsense. The disk should only be used for the cleaning process or when you actually want hot water. At all other times it should remain in the storage slot. If you leave it in and someone, say a child, accidentally presses the button the machine will spill out scolding hot water potentially injuring someone. Without the disk or a t.pod, the machine won't do anything if the button is pressed by unsuspecting persons.
Wow Cassandra thanks for your passionate comment. I see the mistake, Mark didn't mean to say actually leave it in the Machine when NOT in use we do actually mean to leave it in the slot provided Although I wouldn't use the disc for hot water unless you want to drink machine rinsed hot water, I might be mistaken, but I didn't read anything in the instructions that you could use the yellow disc for hot water as well, as rinsing the Tassimo machine with the yellow disc.....
Hi Irene, I don't know to be honest. You might be able to, but the coffee machine reads the Tassimo Pods barcode so it can determine, water, froth, hot Chocolate, coffee, milk etc. We've only used the tassimo pods. Sorry I couldn't help much with your question, hopefully one of the other viewers might be able to give you the answer you need? Regards
Yeah they do really good deals on their Website sometimes, and sometimes they do a really good drinks bundle with the coffee Machines. Let us know if you like the Happy😁
That's nice we haven't used ours for a while and Mark wanted a hot Chocolate, (he's usually a coffee drinker and uses another machine for that) so he gave it a good clean then had a Bailey's hot Chocolate and finished the pack 😂 Hope you enjoy yours Amanda 😁
Hi Suvy, yes you can use tap water, I would use room temperature water myself rather than very cold water. Also bear in mind if you live in a hard water area you may need to descale more often, but the machine will tell you when to descale.
Hi PKD, Thanks for your question, we don't clean it after every coffee made, if you make a coffee then make a hot chocolate you won't taste the coffee previously made in the hot chocolate. However the machine will tell you when it needs cleaning
Yeah I think a lot of people love coffee and this machine is a good price and you can make hot Chocolate too which is good for me because I don't like Coffee...... except for frappuccino of course 😁
Yes you could, but give it a good rinse through first until the water runs clear, otherwise you'll have rinsed out hot water in your mug with bits in..... not pleasant
This is rubbish advice. The water it runs through with the yellow disk is exactly the same water, through the same pipes, as it is running through your coffee pod. It only cleans with the yellow disk when the cleaning light is on. At all other times it will be clean, clear hot water. Also, at the end of each dispensing of a drink, the machine ends with a burst of hot steam - this is clearing out the nozzle ready for the next drink.
Well thank you for enlightening us with your eloquence and ease of speach, your comments are duly noted. Enjoy the rest of your day knowing you've put the world rights once more in plight of the use of the tassimo yellow disc.
If you only want people who praise you to reply, start a private fan club rather putting yourself out there on a PUBLIC forum where I have as much right to have my say as those who want to say how brilliant and helpful your videos are.
@@Ronaldo-ou9vd ok so the ones with the two pods milk and coffee, they go in order part 1 and part 2 are you using them in the correct order? If so have you tried turning the Machine on and off? And have you tried using your yellow disc to do a rinse through in case there's a blockage? You may need to use cleaning tablets in case there may be a blockage
Hi Mark I just brought my one yesterday and it arrives today I took out of the box and I wanted to use it but I don't know what to do and my book is not in English so please help me to set it up from Frances kafka as I am new
Hi Frances of course I'll be happy to help . Firstly remove the plastic tray and rinse it out. Fill it with drinking water to the full mark. Put the tray back in and plug in the Tassimo. Lift the top lid and put in the yellow disk. Place a cup on the tray under the nossel. Press the button with the orange light once.wait for the flashing orange light to stop. Tip out the water and do this 2 more times. Now you can use the Tassimo! Take out the yellow disc but do not throw it away. Fill the drink tray with drinking water and put in a drink pod into the top compartment and Place a cup on the tray. Press the button with the orange light and wait for it to stop flashing. Enjoy your drink! I hope that helps.
@@franceskafka873 Hi Frances follow the instructions that Mark listed in the previous reply as these will help. If not follow the picture instructions that came with the Tassimo
Hi Henri, thanks for your question. Yes for the price and the various drinks it can make we would recommend the Tassimo. We had the Tassimo for a couple of years before we got the others and we were very happy with the hot chocolate and coffees it produced. However since Mark has bought the other Machine he prefers the Coffee from the other Machine. I still use the Tassimo for my hot chocolates as I don't drink coffee, but we feel the Tassimo is a good all round family Machine giving something for everyone where as other machines are pretty much only aimed at coffee drinkers. We've bought the Tassimo for several members of friends and family and they love it.
Great we hope you enjoy it, we ordered a variety pack from Amazon so we could try different drinks, if you do that though, be careful in the sense that you can't choose what you want, they're just random selections of what they have readily available, but we found it useful and fun trying different drinks without having to buy whole packs of drinks just to try, always read the reviews before ordering the variety box from Amazon. Yes the water is very hot, but not boiling kettle hot.
I’ve just brought a Tassimo, and I’ve subbed for the pure fact Mark’s got an Iron Maiden mug! 🤣 Good review guys!
Heath Drinks thanks \m/ Mark is very proud of that mug 😂
Thank you so much for your review. I didn’t know how to use mine and watched various reviews. Yours was the most informative and clear. I was thinking the same thing about how the machine can tell you are using the milk. 😀
Hi Ria, we're so pleased you found it informative.
We enjoy doing these videos and it's nice to find that it helps people 😀
I have a tassimo machine and I also put in the espresso pod on its own a few times forgetting the milk pod. I have since learned from my mistakes. I use the Americano pods predominantly in my tassimo machine.
Hi Julie, yeah I think Mark found them strong like that too. He adds cream now theses days, gives the coffee a nicer texture.
Omg I got the tasmo machine 😊
Here's tip over time it will scale up make sure you buy a scale filter by tasmo otherwise, you end up buying a new machine.

Does the coffee and the milk pods come together or do you have to buy separately?

Hi. Just got this machine. What do the other two icons under the cup mean?
Hi Alex, one is to let you know to refill the water tank and the other is to let you know when to rinse the Tassimo
Woo Markus love this cafee maker ...best wishes from sahenaaz from India
😂 Yes he really does 😂
Im confused i press the button once and i got half a cup
Really?
What coffee was it?
Your Tassimo will read the barcode so should be correct, but you never know
Before the coffee pod has finished, hold the button down and it will continue adding hot water, just release before it gets to the top as it will carry on for a few seconds after you release it.

Hi Carmella,
Have you rinsed and cleaned your machine?
As it could be a blockage?
I have one but some bits are missing but it still works fine for me
I've only just seen your messages sorry I didn't answer sooner.

Did you contact them?

Can you add your own coffee is there away you can get a pod that you can add your own coffee
Hi Irene, I don't know to be honest.
You might be able to, but the coffee machine reads the Tassimo Pods barcode so it can determine, water, froth, hot Chocolate, coffee, milk etc.

For the cleaning you have to buy special pills to disolve in the water ?
You have to buy descaling tablets, we bought ours on the Tassimo website
Buy oust cheaper yet more effective since it comes in a liquid form
You can also use the yellow disk for plain hot water.
Yes you could, but give it a good rinse through first until the water runs clear, otherwise you'll have rinsed out hot water in your mug with bits in..... not pleasant
