Tassimo – Tips for the perfect cup
Fresh Water
For best results, always use
fresh, cold water. Fresh
water allows the flavors
to better unfold.

Cups and Mugs
The Tassimo machine will accommodate most of your favorite cups and mugs. Use the
higher level of the adjustable cup stand for espresso cups and the lower level for most
other cups. For larger mugs, you can also temporarily remove both the drip tray and the
cup stand; however, these should be replaced right after brewing. Always keep the
backsplash in place while brewing.
To avoid spilling over, please ensure that your cup is the right size for the drink you are
making. These are recommended cup sizes:
Espresso
Filter Coffee,
Café Crema, Cappuccino,
Latte, Tea and Chocolate

T-DISCS can be stored in their carton dispenser, or if you prefer,
you can transfer them to another container. While you should
always store your T-DISCS in a cool, dry place, it is not necessary
to keep them in the refrigerator. Do not keep T-DISCS in the freezer.
If unopened, your T-DISCS are good until the "best before date" on
the outer package.
3 oz / 90 ml cup
11 oz / 325 ml cup
Maintenance
You must regularly clean and descale your Tassimo
machine to ensure best results (see sections "Cleaning"
and "Descaling"). For cleaning and descaling purposes, a
reusable cleaning disc is provided with the machine.
Please keep it in a safe place for use as required. The
drip tray is designed to collect the small amount of
water that is released during brewing. Be sure to
empty the drip tray periodically to prevent overflow.
Please note that when brewing into a large mug
without the drip tray and cup stand, a small
amount of water will still trickle onto the bottom of
the backsplash.
