Bosch Tassimo T20 Home Brewing System (Review + Giveaway)

Like many adults, I need a piping hot cup of coffee to kick start my morning - every morning. In fact, if I don't have my morning joe, I am tired, cranky and somewhat unpleasant to be around. Luckily for me, though, (and everyone else that has to be around me) I have the new Tassimo T20 Brewing System from Bosch that allows me to enjoy a cup of coffee in just one minute!
The Tassimo T20 is a revolutionary home brewing system that makes more than just coffee. With the T20, you can enjoy a variety of beverages including cappuccinos, lattes and even tea, right in your own home. Plus, with its automatic drink recognition system, the Tassimo T20 delivers a perfect cup every time.

With the T20, whipping up your favorite coffee shop drink is quick, easy and mess-free. That is because the Tassimo T20 works exclusively with a selected T Disc of your choice. Each T Disc contains a precisely measured amount of coffee, tea, chocolate or concentrated milk creamer. Simply select a T Disc, insert it into the machine, press the button and your job is done! Your beverage pours directly from the T Disc (where the brewing happens), right into your cup!
How does the Tassimo T20 know the difference between a latte T Disc and a tea T Disc? The intelligent T Disc technology reads the bar code on each T Disc indicating the right amount of water, the brewing time and the precise temperature to deliver your favorite drink made just right at the touch of a button! How neat is that!?
Since the T20 is designed with a 1.5 liter water tank and the mess-free T Disc system, you can enjoy cup after cup without having to stop. Brew up a nice latte you, a cup of coffee for you husband and a cup of tea for your mother all within five minutes! Plus, thanks to the handy cup stand/drip tray, the Tassimo T20 accommodates a range of different sized cups and mugs.
Along with the Tassimo T20, we were sent a variety of T Discs to try. And, because I wanted to see just how well the T20 worked, I tried the Gevalia Skinny Cappuccino first.
After the Gevalia espresso T Disc was finished (the first of two T Discs that are used to make a skinny cappuccino), I placed the fat free milk T Disc into the machine and watched in amazement as a skinny cappuccino, complete with foam, was brewed right in the comfort of my own home! After my skinny cappuccino was finished, I just had to make another variety, so I opted to try the Milka Hot Chocolate next. And yes, it was just as delectable!
One of my fears with the Tassimo T20 was that I was going to have to order the T Discs off of the internet because we live in such a rural area. So, imagine my surprise when we walked through the coffee aisle at our local Walmart and saw several varieties of T Discs! We instantly snatched up a Maxwell House Café Collection House Blend Coffee (since it is one of our favorite types of coffee) for around $6 for 16 T Discs!

After having the Tassimo T20 from Bosch in our home for several weeks, I am loving the convenience and variety it offers. Not only is it great at making my three to four cups of coffee every morning, but it is also terrific to have on-hand for those guests that do not like coffee, but prefer other hot beverages like hot chocolate and tea.

Buy It: You can purchase the Tassimo T20 ($129.99) and a wide variety of T Discs ($4.49 - $10.99) at www.tassimodirect.com.
