Park Life 70 Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 Just bought a Tassimo T65 (fuck off Parky!) - anyone recommend any decent pods? Sad to see you've gone over to the dark side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you order them in bulk online? As I'd imagine they'll be a leetle bit cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you order them in bulk online? As I'd imagine they'll be a leetle bit cheaper. Not really In the past Ive bougt them from Asda/Tesco when in there but the range is limited. Costco sometimes have them but again only 1-2 types. Ive seen, but never bought them on Ebay. So, for choice, the Tassimo shop is where I get them. I just spent £20 but that was 5 packs plus delivery (about £4). One thing, watch out for some as all boxes around around £3 (most anyway). But some you get 16 pods and some 8. Then things like Latte you get 8 milk and 8 coffee, so only 8 cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeazesMag 0 Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 can't find the glass coffee maker. Disappeared with no trace I bought some Taylors colombian from Morrisons last week, am about to start using it but still using the tin/steel maker [whatever it is, its Russell Hobbs though isn't cheap crap] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeazesMag 0 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Well, yesterday I went to Asda and they had something like a bialetti moka for a fiver, one cup. So I got it. Was going to get a filter but they didn't have any and the woman I spoke to said they don't stock them anymore "because people don't use them they use these" and pointed me towards one of these mega cafe things. Today I popped into morrisons and also bought a 1 litre cafetierre half price for another fiver. I'll use whichever is best, the cafetierre will do if I want to make more than one cup as Mrs LM only drinks instant coffee, but I expect I'll end up buying one of these sooper dooper jobs in the end Edited November 25, 2010 by LeazesMag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yhe method of making is secondary. It's like the good old days of seperates hi fi when one spent more on the source of the sound (turntable/cd player) than the last in the chain - the speakers. Hi quality coffee passed through a simple paper filter into a glass container gives the most authentic flavours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19839 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Your carbon footprint using a nespresso machine must be dreadful. why? you can recycle the pods - the guy that delivers the pods, collects the used ones for recycling. the power it uses is no more than a bog standard espresso machine i imagine.
