I have a Tassimo and it is nothing but hot water that comes out without a disk.

meh.  Fine for the hotel rooms I stay in, but they're not going to work for my house.


I use a std. coffee maker that uses regular filters and regular ground coffee.

Tassimo comes with a cleaning disk. I run it after each use and get nothing but clear hot water.
