TASSIMO Bosch My Way 2 TAS6502GB Coffee Machine, 1500 Watt, 1.3 Litre - Black

Product Information

A CALC symbol will light up when it’s time to descale your machine. The Brita water filter and its holder will need to be removed from the water tank. To rinse out the machine, the orange cleaning disc should be used – it’s stored in the handy little alcove on the left side of the machine. Press the temperature icon repeatedly and you can cycle through the options: white, yellow and red. In my tests extracting an espresso pod on the medium (half a cup) setting, the white temperatures were in the low 60s, the yellow ones in the mid-60s and the red ones in low 70s (°C). However, the temperature of your final drink will also depend on other factors such as room and cup temperature. Coffee pod machines have come a long way in recent years, with the best models bringing some serious advantages in terms of customisability and convenience, and even rivalling manual espresso machines in terms of flavour. However, with more options than ever, it’s become that much harder to figure out which machine will suit your needs best. To that end, we’ll be comparing two of the biggest names in the game, Nespresso and Tassimo, to help make choosing your new capsule machine a little easier. Twinings: Twinings’ passion for perfection has inspired tea drinkers in Britain and across the world for more than 300 years. Tassimo My Way – Bosch: You can choose the temperature, volume and intensity of every single drink, that’s why they call it the personal one.

If you are new in the market of Bosch Tassimo coffee machines, there are top-rated Tassimo products that you must consider owning. These are some with exceptionally worthy value: The pods can be recycled through Terracycle, but drop-off points are limited. Should you buy the Bosch Tassimo My Way 2? To do a research with this kind of product is the best part of your planning. Obtain as many information as you can about Bosch Tassimo coffee machine so that you can foresee if it is going to suit your lifestyle or not.L’Or: Founded in France in 1992, L'OR always had the ambition to offer the best coffee in the world. Here, the machines all bear a lot of similarity to each other: each has a cleaning cycle that is recommended to be run around once a month, removable parts that will need washing with hot, soapy water, as well as a descaling process that is necessary to keep the machine running smoothly.

A light also comes on when it's time to refill the machine, which happened about once a day in a house of frequent coffee drinkers. I suspect that this is because the filter takes up a lot of space in the tank itself, so while the capacity may be 1.3 litres, the actual capacity is more like one litre. Indeed, this Vivy is an entry-level Tassimo machine. Regardless, do not get this wrong because it does not mean that your coffee will be less. It has a 0.7L water tank too which makes it space-saving in nature. At the front, there’s a drip tray that adjusts into four positions depending on the size of your cup, a pad of touch-sensitive buttons to toggle presets for coffee strength, temperature and amount of water, as well as to save your four favourite settings. Once set up, the controls are easy enough for mature kids to use. The top of the machine lifts up so you can insert a T Disc – Tassimo’s version of a coffee pod – and once it’s finished brewing, the disc needs to be removed. If you love Tassimo coffee but would prefer your shot to be longer, stronger or hotter, the My Way 2 is the machine for you. Unlike many Tassimo machines, you’re able to alter the drink settings each time you brew, and if you find a combination you want to revisit, you can save up to four favourites in the machine, so there’s no need to toggle the settings every time. While Tassimo produces solidly put together machines with some unique abilities, Nespresso simply offers more in terms of style, build quality and functionality, with its wide range of options allowing you to hone in on specific premium features.On top of all these, there are also additional buttons which would enable you to modify the length of your brew duration. Aside from this, it also goes with an efficient cable storage solution that can help in keeping most wires out of sight. There’s a lot to like about this capsule machine – it’s family-friendly, with variable settings, simple controls and a good variety of capsules. The Brita Maxtra filter can make a real difference to the taste of your coffee, depending on the water quality where you live, as well as reducing maintenance. Known as one of the biggest units in the family, this weighs around 3.5kg and measures 30 x 20 x 30 centimetres. Compared to the many newer models out there, this is ideal if you are from a hard-water area. This does not only have a Brita water filter, but it has almost 4x of them. This is ideal both for your taste buds and as well as machine internals. While the Vivy 2 neither stands out for better or worse, the Way 2’s built-in Brita filter should allow you to go longer without having to descale it. While we’ll speak generally about what the advantages and disadvantages of each range are, based on the models we’ve reviewed, our comparison will focus on a selection of the brand’s most popular models: the Creatista Uno and Vertuo Next from Nespresso, and the Vivy 2 and My Way 2 from Tassimo.
