Making 4 Gourmet Beverages with Tassimo Coffee Maker for whole family

[landonetfrancaise]

In an age when a pressing concern is overconsumption and our planet's inability to deal with all of the waste we are creating (eg pacific garbage patch) why on earth is this machine even legal? The amount of plastic used to manufacture those T-disks is astronomical, and every single one of those disks that you use for your cup of coffee will spend literally thousands of years leeching toxins into the ecosystem; how on earth can you justify using such an environmentally destructive product?

@landonetfrancaise Agree they create a lot of waste but it's all about convenience. I think Tassimo should have reusable filter option. You can consider Keurig where you can use reusable filter and don't use plastic at all.

@landonetfrancaise The waste from disposable cups at coffee shops is far worse than the waste from these tiny t-discs.

I know I'm a bit late, but I was looking at getting one of these and I was curious if it leaves any coffee aftertaste in tea and other drinks if you brew them after a coffee?

@awin123 Absolutely not. That is the beauty of single-serve brewers.

@awin123 The brewing takes place completely inside of the little disposable disc and not at all inside of the machine. There would be nothing to retain the flavor of the previous drink since the filter is disposed of with the disc.
