< Frequently asked questions

Due to the measures taken by our carriers and the increased volume of orders, our warehouses could be facing a delay on processing your order.

Your order might be delivered later than communicated or it could be sent in more than one parcel. Our team is working hard on ensuring that all orders are shipped as soon as possible.

As soon as your order is dispatched you will receive an email through our automated system along with a tracking reference to see the progress of your delivery.

The shipping costs are 5.99£.

Free shipping is applicable for orders over 25£. Keep in mind that free shipping applies on your subtotal and not on your total amount. This means that your discount first needs to be calculated before you see your final amount. Please take your discount code into an account when calculating your total.

Do you live on a remote area?

We have not been able to deliver to certain remote postal code areas in the UK for a while, but we are now pleased to say that we have been able to resume this delivery service. Due to the higher service costs associated with delivery to these areas, there will be a £5 surcharge added to each delivery, so the total amount for shipping will be 8,99£ (5,99 + .3).

Each T DISC is designed to prepare a perfect cup, and cannot be reused. The T DISC should be removed from the machine after brewing and discarded.

Check our sustanibilty page for more information about recycling.

This is not possible, the TASSIMO brewer is only designed to work with TASSIMO Discs (T-DISCs).

T-DISCs are an integral part of the TASSIMO system. These patented and specially designed single servings have a unique shape that fits in the brewer, guiding the flow of water to prepare the beverage.

Each beverage is prepared according to the bar code on the T-DISC label which tells the brewer the size of the beverage, the brewing time and the optimum temperature required to prepare the perfect cup. Because the brewing happens inside the T-DISC, only a small part of the brewer is in contact with the beverage. Liquid flows from the T-DISC to the cup, allowing consumers to produce different beverages, one after the other, without impacting on the beverage taste quality.

TASSIMO expertise in milk and dairy products was leveraged to develop a patented Ultra Filtration Formula (UF) for milk. This UF Formula allows real milk to be concentrated and stabilised for ambient storage while maintaining a real similarity to fresh milk (look, taste and foaming properties).

The TASSIMO Milk in our T DISCs has none of the yellowish colour or cooked flavours of UHT milk or different flavours from powder milk. This milk product is unique to TASSIMO and no other On Demand system can offer this superior milk delivery from a capsule or pod.

Your parcel will be delivered by Amazon Delivery. 

You can track your order by using the tracking number provided by email once the order has been shipped.

You can also find this tracking number on your MyTassimo Account > Orders

T-DISC is the abbreviation for TASSIMO Disc. The patented T-DISC's are designed to work exclusively with the TASSIMO brewer. The two together make up the TASSIMO hot beverage system.

The TASSIMO machine's manual mode lets you customise your drink.

For a milder tasting drink, press and hold the button when the manual LED lights green to extend the brewing process. Stop when the drink reaches its desired size and strength.

For a stronger tasting drink, stop the brewing process early by pressing the button while the drink is being made. This will result in a shorter drink.

Yes. Once you have made a drink you are able to select a different drink variety straight away.

During the brew cycle of each T DISC the drink stream (flow) does not touch any parts of the brewer once leaving the T DISC so there is no taste contamination T DISC to T DISC (drink to drink).

Also, the individual brew cycle of each T DISC is programmed to complete the cycle with either a gust of air (Braun machine) or with steam (Bosch) at the end of each drink to remove residue between drinks.

Click here for more information about our technology.

For best results store T-DISCs in a cool, dry, place away from direct heat and sunlight as indicated on the package. There is no need to keep them in the fridge.

Check our T-DISCs holders in here.

On Bosch machines, the indicator light flashes red when the water tank needs to be refilled, because the water level is too low to make a drink, or when the tank is not in place. Always refill the tank with clean, fresh, non-carbonated water, and never use chemically softened water. Detailed instructions can be found in the Manual or Quick Start Guide.

Note: on the older-generation Braun machine, all the indicator lights flash when the water tank is empty.

The patented Milk T-DISC combines Ultra Filtration Formula (UF) milk with the right quantity of hot water to deliver perfect layers of milk and milk froth for each individual beverage. The liquid passes through the T-DISC at such high velocity that it combines with air to create a foam in a similar way to a steam wand.

Each patented T-DISC is a brewing chamber, enabling a customised preparation process across a potentially endless variety of coffee and beverage types.

Several different types of T-DISCs have been developed to deliver the perfect coffee, espresso & caf' crema, frothed milk, hot chocolate and tea.

You can find more information about our T-DISC technology in here.

They are baled by the reprocessor and sent to a facility in East Yorkshire which specialises in recycling flexible plastics, such as food wrappers and films. The facility produces plastic pellets which are used in a wide range of manufacturing industries

The TASSIMO machine by Bosch uses a patented flow-heat technology that heats water as it passes through the machine.

This means there is no waiting time for it to heat up.

The TASSIMO machine works with T DISCs to ensure perfect quality drinks. Each T DISC contains an expertly measured portion of ground coffee, hot chocolate, tea or concentrated milk. When the T DISC is inserted, the TASSIMO machine reads the unique bar code printed on the label. The code specifies the size, the brewing time and the optimum temperature required to make the perfect drink. Brewing occurs inside the T DISC and flows directly from the T DISC into the cup. You can prepare different drinks, one after the other, each of perfect quality.

The TASSIMO machine is more than an espresso machine. It is a hot drinks system that can prepare a variety of drinks, including espresso, at the touch of a button.

Do you need more information about our machine range? Please, check here.

The quantity of pods will depend on the brand of pods you use. Each bag will fit 60 x Tassimo T Discs. For maximum capacity please ensure pods are drained and the bag is filled to the dotted line.

No, the coffee grounds are removed from the pods at the reprocessor. The coffee is then used as a soil improver and to create renewable energy.
Please drain any remaining liquid from your used pod before adding it to your recycling bag.

The patented Bosch flow-heat technology heats water on demand and switches off immediately after each preparation cycle. It is thus very energy-efficient. There is no continual use of energy by the flow-heater unlike other heat systems.

You can find your nearest Collect+ drop location here.

You can put any participating brand’s pods in the appropriate bag.
The teal-coloured bag marked P is for plastic coffee pods or the white bag marked A is for aluminium coffee pods.
If you use both aluminium and plastic pods you cannot put them in the same bag, you will need to use separate bags. This is so they can be sent to the correct reprocessing facility.

After collection, the coffee pods are taken to a specialist reprocessing plant in the UK to separate the packaging from the used coffee grounds. The coffee grounds are used to create soil improver and renewable energy. The plastic and aluminium will be transformed into new products such as beverage cans or plastic garden furniture.

Click here to order an additional roll of kerbside collection bags.

We are in positive discussions with several local authorities and hope to have more operational soon. The set up and roll out of kerbside collections will take time so in the meantime please use our Drop Off collection service. To find out more about this service click here.

Aluminium pods will be reprocessed at Tandom Metallurgical Group Ltd. in Congleton, near Stoke-on-Trent. Plastic pods will be reprocessed by Roydon in Swinton, near Manchester.
