Tassimo Flat White coffee

Peppermint Dark Chocolate latte

My Tassimo coffee maker, is my favorite coffee machine. I have a variety of coffee machines, but this is the one I use every day – Period. I also bought the make your own pods, which I experiment with now and then. I just wish I could figure out how to make a latte and/or cappuccino with the empty pods.

This is my favorite Flat White mixture. The Tassimo Flat White is harder to find, so, I only treat myself to it on the weekend.

In the photos, you’ll see the sweetener I prefer. But this coffee is delicious without a sweetener. I just like the holiday flavors throughout the year.

I like to add a drop of dark chocolate liquid sweetener to the cup, before I start with the milk pod; I then add the Peppermint liquid sweetener to the top of the milk foam, before starting the espresso pod. Tassimo Flat white is a favorite over the years.

I wish Tassimo coffee was available in the U.S.

I buy it online only when I can find free shipping, as it is already a bit expensive. My second favorite latte, is the Jacob Caramel Macchiato. Tassimo also offers a variety of dark and medium roasts, which I enjoy throughout the year.

I have had my Tassimo machine for a few years, if it ever stops working, I will buy another.

Espresso Stovetop

I bought this during the Black Friday event at a great price. I didn’t need another coffee gadget, but at that price, I had to try it. I’m glad I did!

I watched a couple of the videos from customers while waiting for the quick delivery. My first time operating this, and it was a win.

I found with the coffee grounds (I use black rifle espresso) that this tends to be smoother (no grounds finding their way in to the finished product), when I use a paper filter from mycap which I buy for my Tassimo – they fit perfectly.

If you want to see a video of my first day using this , I shared it as part of my review on Amazon. Below are a few photos to show my first attempt at espresso

Easy and quick to operate; delicious espresso

Sip on a Dreamy Coconut Milk Latte

This is delicious and very easy to create. I accidentally stumbled on to this website, I had all the ingredients, and decided to give this a try. I used espresso, and for the brown sugar I used Swerve. Just a few ingredients, and this was quick to create. It is hard to just have one.

Jim got me an espresso machine, because he knows I’m curious about the Breville espresso, which I can’t afford. But he found this cute, little Krups one at a thrift store.

I like the deeper taste of the espresso shot

I’m amazed at how much better the flavor is when I use the steam wand on the cream. The tiny bubbles really do enhance the flavor, and create the perfect temperature.

I’m having fun with this, and so much cheaper to make the shots yourself, for that quick pick me up
