Most days, I can say with all honesty that it’s coffee that gets me going each morning.  One of my very favorite hot beverages is a cappuccino, but living in a small town, really good ones are hard to come by.  No fancy coffee chain stores here!  I had resigned myself to this fact, occasionally enjoying one whenever we ventured to a bigger city.

Since right before Christmas I have been enjoying the most wonderful, frothy cappuccinos ever.  In my OWN home.  Thanks to the Tassimo T20, I can enjoy hot coffee, tea, lattes, hot chocolate, and other specialty drinks in mere seconds with no cleanup.  I know!  I couldn’t believe it, either!

Coffee makers intimidate me.  It took some extreme convincing on the part of some of my friends about 5 years ago that I needed to put down the instant coffee and get a coffee maker, for heaven’s sake!  I finally did, and perfected my measuring and sweetening.  When I took a look at the Tassimo T20, I became intimidated all over again.  It’s sleek…it’s stylish…and after giving it a try for the first time, I do declare it is the easiest thing I have ever operated in my life.  My poor old coffee maker hasn’t been used since.

The Tassimo T20 uses no filters and each serving of your beverage comes in a small T DISC.  You simply add water to the holding container in the back, pop in a T DISC and press a button.  Your drink is ready in about a minute.  Cleaning up is a breeze since all you do is remove the T-disc once you are finished brewing and throw it away!  Now everyone in your home can enjoy their favorite hot beverage since it’s a single serving each.  The Tassimo T20 makes up to seven different kinds of single serving beverages (over 40 flavors in all) by reading a barcode found on each T DISC, which lets the machine know what to make and how to brew it.  Fancy, no?  These T DISCs are brand names you will recognize like Starbucks, Gevalia, Maxwell House, and more.

We’ve been wearing this thing out in our house, and have already had to buy more T DISCs.  The Tassimo T20 retails for $129.99 and can be purchased at select Wal-Mart, Bed, Bath, & Beyond, Target, Kohl’s, Macy’s, select specialty stores and directly at tassimodirect.com.
