    I'm really behind and trying to skim through so apologies if this has been posted already but I seem to remember someone posted that they'd had problems with their Tassimo machine red descaling light staying on even after they'd just descaled their machine. I had the same problem and found the answer with step-by-step instructions here:

    http://nerdfever.com/?p=983

    Some of the comments on the above page suggest using various things to replace the extortionately priced Bosch Tassimo descaling tablets (lemon juice seems to be popular). However, I didn't want to risk my machine so searched Amazon and found "Bosch Decalcifying Tablets for Coffee Machines and Kettles, 6 Tablets" for £7.50 (in hard water areas you need 2 tablets for each descale so £2.50 per time compared to the 2 treatment pack for £6 on the Tassimo site). These worked very well and my descaling light has now gone off. :j

    Has anyone found any cheaper way to descale their machine that they are confident won't damage it?

    PS If you didn't manage to stock up during the recent Tassimo coffee pod glitch then Tassimo are having a 2 for 1 offer at the moment:

    HTH
    thanks I saved a shortcut to desktop. I have loads of descaling tablets from when they were 1p on the click strips so ill chance them when I have to.

    FloFlo if you're still looking for book recommendations, have you tried anything by Harlen Coben before? His books are fab, especially the Myron Bolitiar series.

    :hello:The wombles from this afternoon - it was very wet and I've been trying to rescue them! Just about able to prise some of the receipts apart now, without ripping them to shreds!:rotfl::rotfl: Not being prised apart from each other, just to clarify! But perfectly fine when I was in the house (maybe da house?:D) again, fine in the store, but why rain when I'm on the store to car route?:(:(:(

    :rotfl:

    Really this post just another excuse to get a post number:rotfl:! I see I've probably got a bit of catching up to do from this thread this afternoon!
