Tassimo T20 Single Serve Coffee Maker Review and GiveawayReseña del Tassimo T20 y el Sorteo
By: Keith
I got my hands on a Tassimo T20 single serve coffee machine this week (from the marketing company in charge of social media and blog outreach for Bosch and Tassimo), and I’m here to review it and give one away to one of my readers. It’s my job to give this machine an honest review, and that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I already own a Keurig single serve coffee maker which I’ve gotten good use out of for the last three years. I like it, but I’m also curious about how it stacks up against the Bosch machine. To be fair though, my Keurig is the B70, not the comparable B40. Nevertheless, I like my B70, and I want to like the Tassimo, too.
Opening the Box:
Talk about easy to use! I opened the box, removed the Tassimo T20, filled the tank, plugged it in, and followed the instruction to run 4, 8 oz cups of water through it before making my first cup of coffee. Then I made the first cup of coffee. The total time from opening the box to making coffee was less than 5 minutes. Initial setup then is about 5 minutes. Each successive cup of coffee is about a minute. Thus, the thing is ridiculously easy to use. In other words, if your grandma needs a coffee maker, and you’re feel generous this Christmas, she will definitely be able to work this thing.
Why It’s a Good Choice:
1. Good Coffee: The coffee is good. It isn’t instant coffee or anything horrible like that, and it’s not super great coffee house coffee, but it is better than average. For non-coffee snobs like me better than average is good enough.
2. Design: The thing looks a lot less gangly than my Keurig B70 and takes up much less space. It’s solid (like the Keurig), the washable bits are easy to remove (unlike my Keurig), and the button, just the one, is impossible to miss.
3. Customized Serving Size: My B70 comes with 4 sizes 6, 8, 10, 12 oz servings. The Keurig B40 only comes with two. The Tassimo T20 comes with one, standard, 8 oz size, but you can manually hold the button down to keep dispensing until your coffee becomes weaker if that’s your preference. Or, you can press the button before brewing is finished to stop the process prematurely to make a stonger brew. In other words, with just one button the Tassimo T20 comes with more sizing options than even my B70.
4. Reasonably Quiet: I’ve owned a Keurig B40 in the past. They’re noisy little machines. The Tassimo T20 is not. It’s not exactly quiet, but it doesn’t sound like it’s taking off either. The Tassimo T20 is a much better engineered machine than the Keurig B40, and it’s obvious; my B40 lasted less than a year before it died (the B70 is a different story entirely; it’s been super reliable).
5. Automatic Descaling Notification: Coffee machines need occasional descaling. That’s when minerals from water eventually build up on the walls of the machine and affect taste and clog tubes. The Tassimo T20 has a light that illuminates when you’re supposed to descale. That’s a handy feature (also present on my Keurig B70 and the B40).
6. Smart Pods (T-Discs): This is something that Keurig does not have. The Tassimo T-Discs each have a bar code that tells the machine how much water to dispense. So, for instance, if you’re making a cappuccino (an option with T-Discs) the machine only dispenses 3 ounces to make an espresso shot. Then, to complete the cappuccino, there’s a separate T-Disc that you put in that makes the milk foam – cool. Thus, depending on what sort of coffee you buy, the machine gives you the proper size automatically without you having to do anything extra. This is a major advancement over all the Keurig machines, including the B70.
One Major Complaint:
Too Damn Expensive: Not the machine. The machine is competitively priced and completely worth the expense when compared to its weaker competition. It’s the pods that are way too expensive. 60 Tassimo coffee pods (they call them T-Discs) sell for $53 on Amazon. I saw them for sale today at Safeway for $11 for a package of 16 pods. The Keurig pods are sold on Amazon for $26 for 48 pods. Target sells the Keurig pods for $60 for 108 pods. The price discrepancy is due to the bar code feature of the T-Discs so you have to decide if that feature is worth the added price per cup of coffee from the Tassimo vs. the Keurig machines. The taste alone is not significantly different to warrant double the price in my opinion. In fact, considering that I think the Keurig Pods are pretty expensive the T-Discs are almost prohibitively expensive. Side Note: Both are cheap when compared to a cup of Starbucks coffee (which, in my opinion, doesn’t taste any better than Tassimo T-Disc or Keurig Pod coffee). Thus, if you’re the kind of person who’s addicted to Starbucks on your way to work every morning, you’d be much better served, despite the price tag, making Tassimo coffee at home.
Use Filtered Water:
Fill the tank with filtered water. Coffee and tea always taste better with pure water, but it also cuts down on the need to descale. I haven’t descaled my Keurig in more than a year thanks to using filtered instead of tap water. I have a Zojirushi hot water pot that also has gone without descaling for more than a year. Before filtered water I could taste a difference in my beverages, and I was descaling every 3 months. Filtered water makes all the difference!
The Honest Trade Off:
You have a choice. You can go the quick and dirty route of instant swill (reference Starbucks Via packets); you’ll save some money, and make quick coffee, but your taste buds will suffer. You can go the route of an aluminum espresso maker which is cheap, and makes excellent tasting coffee, but it takes time and is messy. You can spend tons of money and buy a mechanical espresso maker which will take your time and your money but also give superb coffee. How about a French Press? It’s cheap, true; and it makes great coffee quickly. But, it’s messy and cleaning up after yourself is a drag. Then there are all the choices with the single serve makers and drip machines.
I love my Keurig B70. But, it’s way more expensive than the Tassimo T20. The Tassimo T20 is a better machine by a long shot than its main competition, the Keurig B40, but the outrageous price of the T-Discs make the choice less simple than it should be. Do I want a superior machine or cheaper pods? I’m still inclined to prefer my B70 only because the pods are so much cheaper (yet still pretty expensive) and the machine is competently built and reliable. But, if I had to choose between the Tassimo T20 and the Keurig B40, its rival, the Tassimo would win hands down. The Tassimo T20 is the superior machine, and the T-Disk price is bearable if only to have a machine that’s reliable. But, really, Tassimo needs to do something about the price of their T-Disks because that’s the only thing keeping anybody from preferring the Tassimo over a Keurig.

Esta semana he conseguido una máquina cafetera Tassimo T20 de una taza (por parte de la compañía de mercadotecnia en cargada de la media social y el alcance en blogs de Bosch y Tassimo), así que heme aquí listo para hacer la reseña y dar una máquina a uno de mis lectores en un sorteo. Es mi obligación el darle a esta máquina una reseña honesta, y eso es exactamente lo que voy a hacer. Yo ya poseo una máquina cafetera Keurig a la cual le he dado un buen uso por los últimos tres años. Me gusta, pero tengo curiosidad acerca de cómo se compara con la máquina de Bosch. Para ser justo, mi Keurig es la B70, no la comparable B40. Aún así, me gusta mi B70, pero también quiero que me guste la Tassimo.
Abriendo la caja:
¡Hablando de fácil de usar! Yo abrí la caja, removí la Tassimo T20, llené el tanque de agua, la conecté, y seguí las instrucciones que indicaban el dejar correr 4 tazas de agua de 8 oz antes de preparar mi primera taza de café. Luego preparé mi primera taza de café. El tiempo en total que me tomó desde que abrí la caja hasta que comencé a preparar mi café fueron menos de 5 minutos. Entonces la instalación original es como 5 minutos. Cada taza de café toma como un minuto. Por lo tanto, esta máquina es ridículamente fácil de utilizar. En otras palabras, si tu abuelita necesita una máquina cafetera, y esta navidad te estás sintiendo generoso, ella definitivamente será capaz de hacer funcionar esta máquina.
Por qué es una buena opción:
1. Buen café: El café es bueno. No es café instantáneo ni nada tan terrible como eso, ni tampoco es el súper café de la cafetería, pero es mejor que el café promedio. Para aquellos que no son esnobs con su café como yo, ser mejor que el promedio es suficientemente bueno.
2. Diseño: La máquina se ve mucho menos desgarbada que mi Keurig B70 y ocupa mucho menos espacio. Es sólida (como la Keurig), y las partes que se pueden lavar son fáciles de remover (a diferencia de mi Keurig), y el botón, solo tiene uno, es imposible de perder.
3. Tamaño de las porciones Personalizadas: Mi B70 incluye 4 tamaños de porciones, de 6, 8, 10 y 12 oz. La Keurig B40 solamente incluye dos. La Tassimo T20 incluye uno, de 8 oz, pero tú puedes manualmente presionar el botón para continuar sirviendo hasta que tu café sea más claro si esa es tu preferencia. En otras palabras, con solo un botón la Tassimo T20 contiene más opciones de tamaños de las porciones (con excepción de la pequeña de 6 oz que en ocasiones es bueno tener) que incluso mi B70.
4. Considerablemente Silenciosa: En el pasado yo tuve una Keurig B40. Estas son unas maquinitas bien ruidosas. La Tassimo T20 no lo es. No es particularmente silenciosa, pero tampoco suena como si estuviera a punto de despegar. La Tassimo T20 es una máquina mucho mejor diseñada que la Keurig B40, y es obvio; mi B40 me duró menos de un año antes de descomponerse (la B70 es una historia completamente diferente; ha sido súper confiable).
5. Notificación automática de descalcificación: Las máquinas cafeteras necesitan ser ocasionalmente descalcificadas. Esto es cuando los minerales que se encuentran en el agua forman sedimentos en las paredes de la máquina, afectando el sabor y atascando los tubos. La Tassimo T20 tiene una lucecita que se enciende cuando es tiempo de ser descalcificada. Esta es una función bien útil (que también se encuentra presente en mi Keurig B70 y en la B40).
6. Paquetitos Inteligentes (T-Discs): esto es algo que la Keurig no tiene. Cada uno de los T-Discs de Tassimo contiene un código de barras que le dice a la máquina cuánta agua tiene que servir. Por ejemplo, si estás preparándote un capuchino (una opción en los T-Discs) la máquina solamente te sirve 3 onzas de agua al servir el expreso. Luego, para completar el capuchino, existe un T-Disc diferente que pones en la máquina para ponerle la leche espumosa – súper padre. Por lo tanto, dependiendo de qué tipo de café te compres, la máquina te va a dar automáticamente el tamaño de café apropiado sin que tú tengas que hacer nada adicional. Esta es un gran adelanto sobre las máquinas Keurig, incluyendo la B70
Una queja mayor:
Demasiado Cara: Pero no la máquina. El costo de la máquina tiene un precio competitivo y completamente vale la pena el gasto cuando se le compara con su competencia más débil. Son los paquetitos de café los que son demasiado caros. 60 paquetitos de café de Tassimo (ellos les llaman T-Discs) cuestan $53 en Amazon. Hoy los vi en venta en Safeway a $11 por un paquete de 16 paquetes. Los paquetitos de Keurig cuestan $26 en Amazon por una caja con 48 paquetitos. Target vende los paquetitos de Keurig a $60 por una caja con 108 paquetitos. La discrepancia en el precio se debe al sistema de código de barras que los T-Discs tienen así que tú tienes que decidir si esa característica vale el precio adicional por cada taza de café entre las máquinas de Tassimo y las de Keurig. El sabor no es significantemente diferente como para justificar casi el doble del precio. De hecho, considerando que yo pienso que los paquetitos de Keurig son bastante caros, los T-Discs son prohibitivamente caros. Nota: Ambos son baratos cuando se les compara con una taza de café en un Starbucks (la cual, en mi opinión, no sabe mejor que el T-Disc de Tassimo o el paquetito de Keurig). Por lo tanto, si tú eres el tipo de persona quien está adicto al Starbucks de camino al trabajo cada mañana, tú estarías mucho mejor servido, a pesar del costo, al prepararte una taza de café de Tassimo en casa.
Usa agua filtrada:
Llena el tanque con agua filtrada. El café y el té siempre saben mucho mejor cuando se les prepara con agua pura, pero esto también te reduce la necesidad de descalcificación. Yo no he descalcificado mi Keurig en más de un año gracias a que he utilizado agua filtrada en lugar de agua de la llave. Yo también tengo una calentadora de agua de Zojirushi que también ha vivido sin ser descalcificada por más de un año. Antes de usar agua filtrada yo podía distinguir la diferencia de sabor en mis bebidas, y estaba descalcificando mis máquinas cada 3 meses. ¡El agua filtrada hace la diferencia!
Un intercambio honesto:
Tú tienes una opción. Tú puedes seguirla ruta obscena de la bazofia instantánea (con referencia a paquetes de Starbucks Via); vas a ahorrarte dinero, y prepararás café rápido, pero tus papilas gustativas van a sufrir por ello. También puedes elegir el camino de la preparadora de café expreso de aluminio la cual es barata, y prepara un café que sabe excelente, pero toma tiempo y crea mucha suciedad. Tú puedes gastarte la tonelada de dinero comprando una máquina para café expreso la cual tomará tu tiempo y tu dinero pero también te dará un café superbo. ¿Qué tal una prensa francesa? Es barata, cierto; y prepara un café fabuloso de manera rápida. Pero, también crea mucha suciedad y tener que limpiar tu tiradero es una lata. Y luego también tienes todas las opciones con las máquinas que preparan una sola taza y las que gotean.
A mí me encanta mi Keurig B70. Pero, es mucho más cara que la Tassimo T20. La Tassimo T20 es por mucho una mejor máquina que su principal competencia, la Keurig B40, pero el escandaloso precio de sus T-Discs hace que la decisión sea más difícil de lo que debería ser. ¿Quiero una máquina superior o paquetitos de café más baratos? Yo sigo inclinado a preferir mi Keurig B70 únicamente porque los paquetitos de café son mucho más baratos (aún cuando son algo caros) y la máquina ha sido construida competentemente y es confiable. Pero, si tuviera que escoger entre La Tassimo T20 y la Keurig B40, su rival, la Tassimo ganaría sin lugar a duda. La Tassimo T20 es una máquina superior, y el costo de los T-Discs es tolerable solo si es para tener una máquina que es confiable. Pero, verdaderamente, Tassimo necesita hacer algo con respecto al precio de sus T-Discs porque eso es lo único que previene que las personas prefieran una Tassimo sobre una Keurig.

Keith, I REALLY want to win this contest of yours because my wife REALLY wants one of these machines. I can’t really afford to buy her one for Christmas, so I’m crossing my fingers that I can get lucky with your give away.
Great video by the way!

Wow! Thanks for the review! My husband and I have been contemplating getting one of these for months now. Our drip machine is heading out and we weren’t happy with it anyway. Definitely am article that will help us make our decision! We thought about a pod machine because we both drink completely different coffees and this would accommodate both our tastes. BUT the pod price might annoy me too….
liked your FB page and Tassimo’s FB page. (Angela Beechan)
I’d love to get out of cleaning my French press every day! Great giveaway!!
I hope i win! WOO HOO!
I’ve never been big on the single-cup coffee machines, so thanks for this review and perspective. I like my brew, but my tastes in coffee have stultified in the past five years or so.
We’re in need of a new coffee machine, our Senseo croaked recently…thanks for the chance to win.
I like Keith Wilcox & Tassimo on facebook (Louis Here)

Good info…thanks for this I’m considering them…
Two questions; Are tea pods available? If so, if one makes a coffe and then a tea, will the tea taste like coffee? Thanks for the review.
Dawn, I haven’t tried tea pods on the Tassimo, so I don’t know how that works. I did try tea pods on my Keurig though, and they didn’t leave any coffee taste. However, tea doesn’t lend itself well to being brewed at the same temperature as coffee (Green tea should be steeped between 175-185 degrees but coffee needs to be above 192 to taste good). For tea I use my hot water pot instead of my instant brew machine. Thanks for asking!
Hey, I’d like to enter! Thus, I’m leaving my comment here and liking both pages.
Cool contest idea!
I also have owned a Keurig for almost 3 years now. I love, love it. However, last weekend I was at a retail who was giving out samples of the Tassimo and the latte was fabulous. And that, sadly, you cannot do on the Keurig. The milk foamed up without the hassle of using one of those wands on an expresso maker and nothing to clean up….sigh…I have a new love…now what to do, what to do. I have been checking the prices online for Tassimo T discs also. Nothing less than Amazon with the auto delivery…now to find space in the kitchen.
WOW…thanks for the review. I’ve been thinking of getting a Keurig. I have a Senseo but it is getting harder and harder to purchase the pods for that machine. Maybe my lucky fairy will bring me a Tassimo! Happy Holidays everyone….
Wonderful little machine and makes fabulous coffee – just one cup at a time – perfect for me as I am a real picky coffee person and do not like coffee that has been sitting on a brewer for hours getting old and nasty tasting. Would love to win this coffee maker – would make my day ..!
I’m wasting too much coffee right now by making enough for me and my wife then she doesn’t drink it. This will be better.
Liked both pages.
Tassimo is a quality brand. Sure would love to win this super cool prize. Happy Holidays to Tassimo and everyone. MERRY XMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My curosity has been peaked about this coffee machine. thank you.
I am not a coffee snob, I like a good cup of coffee that is fast and not instant. Thanks for your outlook on the maker, I had been wondering if it would be a good idea to invest in.
I have been intriged by this machine because I am a die hard cappuccino fan. I thought maybe this machine will make a good cappuccino. Thanks for your imput. Very informative!!
You have no idea how much I would give for a good cup of coffee. My ole cheapo coffee pot seems to burn the coffee. Come onTassimo gimme, gimme, gimme. Nice Christmas spirit right?
Did someone say give away? Ha! Honestly, someone brought theirs to a beach party the other week and it was the hit of the party. Good read today Keith.
Wonderful idea for a contest. I have been very interested in the differences between the coffee makers. Thanks for the information!
I to own a Keurig mini it doesn’t have much oppions on it and it’s only one size cup.If you want flavored coffees you have to send away for them or go with what ever they happen to have in the stores,I just started drinking coffee again 3 years ago whenI lost my 21 year old son and having that cup brighted my day Then my father-in-law died first day of 2010 in May my Sister was killed in a semi wreack 3 years to the day that my son had died we buried here even on the same day with out relizing that it was till after.Everytime Something has gone wrong I have to have the cup with me to calm me down just when I think things will get better something comes along that even ti some it;s just a cup of joe My 21 year old brother died in October and am just lost I want to try new things and since aI lve coffee so much I wou like to get a chance to use a nd give a honest feeling about the machine
Keep your Tassimo…..I love my Keurig! 169.00 was well worth it, Retired my 200.00 Bunn after trying one.
I have a Senseo maker and it’s just OK. The pods are considerably cheaper (4.24 at Walmart) and the coffee is good enough for this coffee snob. Btw… I hate Starbucks coffee, it’s too bitter and addind all that junk doesn’t appeal to me. Flavored coffee…hum…just like a good medium to darker roast like the Sumatra Senseo sells. No gimmicks or add ons save for real cream and some sugar. Would love to try this machine out though. Good luck to all and blessings for a happy holiday season!
Keith – I too have a Keurig but it is making really strange sounds all of a sudden and I am afraid it is on it’s way out. It’s just over a year old and I received it as a gift from my beautiful daughter and her 3 kids and 3 adopted kids.
I love the single serve and would love the specialty drinks the Tassimo would provide. I am on a fixed income and would never be able to buy one myself. So I would really LOVE to win this. Especially if my Keurig is as Is suspect and on it’s way out.
Please consider me when drawing for your winner.
Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I don’t own a coffee maker. So, I would love to win a Tassimo machine! I need the caffeine to keep up with my 3 yr old. He has difficulty sleeping through the night & sometimes will be up all night. So, this would definitely come in handy!
I “like” your fan-page & Tassimo’s fan- page on Facebook! (FB Name: Silver Bella)

We have a Kuerig machine at work which is great since you barely have to wait a minute for a cup.
Thank you so much for the review. I really feel like I was step by step trying out this machine with you. I have the Kuerig and I love it. I was visiting my cousin and she had this Tassimo in her home. She always has the best of everything. I thought I finally was one up when I got my Kuerig and then wouldn’t you know she out did me one more time. Ha! I would love to win one too it would make a great birthday gift for my birthday is on the 20th.
Happy Holidays to all who are reading this and to you for writing this and having the contest.:)
I saw this coffee maker demonstrated in the Bed, Bath and Beyond Store. The coffee was superb!!
wow thanks look like a great coffee maker and i would love to win it.
My son has this fantastic machine and while visiting he made me the best coffee for my lattes’ dreaming of winning one for myself. Thanks for sponsoring a great sweepstakes.
Yay! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win something. Especially now during the holidays!

thanks for the giveaway
Great review! I’ve been wanting either one if these or a Keurig for our kitchen for quite some time now. It would be so convenient for when my husband or I want just one cup (we waste so much coffee because we never drink a full pot). Thanks!
I would love to win this Tassimo coffee machine. My daughter makes the coffee in the morning and by the time I get up the coffee is stale and cold. I wind up heating it in a microwave rather than waste it. If I had this machine I’d always have fresh coffee.
thank you for the chance to read your review, kieth. a friend of mine has 1 of the tassimo machines & she loves it!! i love using it everytime i go over to her home! i’m extremely jealous of her! it’s been the #1 item on my christmas/birthday/mommy’s day/anniversary gift wish list ever since it came out on the market!! but so far thats all it’s been…just a wish!!
i was diagnosed with breat cancer last year & had a single mastectomy in august of last yeay. that combined with all of the other medical bills we have (i had to have 5 surgeries last year!) means extras like wanting a tassimo just isnt in the cards right now!
so, for now, i’m forced to buy my little packets of coffee & take them to my friends home for a “coffee break” while entering contests like yours to try to win my own!!
i hope you have a wonderful christmas holiday & an exciting new year!! may all of your christmas wishes come true!!

I’ve been interested in these single pod machines for work. I liked both pages.
I always appreciate a good cup of coffee. Of course, I already liked your fan page a long time ago. Liked the other page. Merry Christmas!
We saw a demonstration at the mall and bought one for Norm J. (my father inlaw and my wife’s stepfather). He loves it.
I liked both your pages on facebook. My wife would love to get one of these for Xmas. She complains about our cheap coffee maker all the time. After 22 years of marriage I’d like to give her something that would make her happy. Who knows maybe it will make me extra happy on Xmas too. Thanks for the opportunity to enter this contest. Hope you have a good Xmas too. Roger
I absolutely LOVE MY TASSIMO!!!!! I would love to be able to give one to my son and daughter in law, they tried mine and fell in love with it but can’t afford one of their own. They have 2 beautiful young daughters and give up buying things for themselves to be able to provide a loving happy home for the girls. I do so hope that I win the TASSIMO, they would be so overjoyed and so would I.
I make coffee, latte’s capps, hot chocolate in my Tassimo and I love it. I especially love how I can make the various drinks customized to my taste.
Thank you.
Thanks for the review – the Tassimo machine sounds great! I would love to win one!
‘liked’ and ‘liked’ !! Would make the perfect birthday gift for my son who turns 18 on Dec 22nd…….oh, but, he doesn’t drink coffee….so, he’ll just have to give it to me
i like coffee, yes i do! great review Keith. We use an old fashioned drip pot right now, which is great, but ive always wondered if the pods really were better coffee than that. not worth the money for me to experiment lol
Awesome giveaway!!! Would love to try it out.
I find myself hoping Keith wins.
Laura: No, I’m not going to enter myself
I promise, totally random!
I liked your fan page & Tassimo’s fan page. This is a very thorough review made even better since you have owned the b40 and the b70 Keurig machines. Even with the expensive discs, after winning the machine I think it would be fantastic!
I would love to eliminate the mess my family members are able to make with a regular coffee maker. Unbelievable!
this would be a fun christmas gift for my mom!
I’d love to get this for my husband. We own a Kuerig at home and I use it everyday instead of Starbucks. My husband needs to snip the spending at Starbucks for his daily kick, so this would sit really well on his office desk at work. I’ll cross my fingers and see if I actually win something in my life.
I have dying to get my hands on one of these!! This would save me a ton of money every month, instead of going to coffee shops to get my cup of coffee/latte/frappe/cappuccino, this would easily save me hundred dollars or so ever month! Ive been wanting one of these sense the first time I saw it!!
I am Keith Wilcox newest fan on facebook!
I also am an existing fan of Tassimo on facebook!
Blockleslie@ymail.com
Love coffee …. love simplicity …. love convenience … by the way, are you single??
Laurie: Thanks for asking, but no, I’m not single. Seriously, though, you Rock for asking!
I have the large Cuisinart Keurig and I love it,,but after watching your video, I’m thinking this would be perfect for taking to my work place. No more coffee from a thermos, or a pot sitting there going stale!
Living alone, pod coffee is the only way to go~~that way all my cups of coffee are just brewed!
Love Coffee !!!!!!!!! I wanna win it though for my daughter… :0)
I would love to have this coffee maker.
