The information you gave is only sufficient for mind readers. There are many
Tassimo machines and they are different.

True, but usually the problem & solution are the same on them all.

Why do you have to argue all the time

do you think all advice here is good?

Coming from you, you mean ?

You really need to ask ?

and offer such specious objections ?

The principle Bob enunciated is perfectly sound.

yes and no.

Either it is or it isn't.

If you're saying it isn't then according to you questioners needn't bother giving any
details
at all.

But only about things you happen to know about - at least so you claim.

Maybe in this case they shouldn't even have bothered mentioning its a coffee maker ?

Maybe they could have just said "it isn't working ", while you and your fellow
fogeys could have spent the next three or four days trying to guess
what the OP was referring to, with, as is often the case on Usenet,
no further input from the OP at all.
