The most popular coffee pod systems are Nespresso, Dolce Gusto (both owned by Nestle) and Tassimo<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In this buying guide, we focus on Tassimo coffee pod machines. They are typically cheaper than both Nespresso and Dolce Gusto.<\/p>\n

Tassimo machines work with Tassimo pods, more commonly referred to as T-discs. Each disc comes with a barcode that the machine uses to determine what kind of coffee to make. The company calls it INTELLIBREW™ technology.<\/p>\n

The barcode system means you are locked into the Tassimo system. You won\u2019t find cheaper non-brand capsules that are compatible.<\/p>\n

Currently, Bosch manufactures all Tassimo machines.<\/p>\n

The Full Range of Tassimo Coffee Pod Machines<\/h2>\n

Currently, there are 5 models of Tassimo coffee machines (6 is you count Vivy and Vivy 2 separately).<\/p>\n

They all make a wide variety of hot beverages and not just coffee. They can also prepare hot chocolate, tea and Decaf. It all depends on the pods you buy.<\/p>\n

One of the key differences between Tassimo machines and Dolce Gusto or Nespresso is the amount of pressure they use.<\/p>\n

While most pod coffee machines apply a pressure of 15-19 bars to extract maximum flavour from the pods, Tassimo machines produce a pressure of just 3.3 bars.<\/p>\n

The machines rely more on speed rather than pressure to extract flavour from the capsule.<\/p>\n

The quality of coffee also depends a lot on the quality of coffee pods. You may have to try different pods to find the quality you like.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a quick rundown of all Tassimo coffee pod machines.<\/p>\n
