Do you mean those kind of machines that Nescafe make and you press a button and you can get capuccino, tea, iced tea, espresso etc? Or do you mean a plastic tea caddy where with a push button a teaspoon of tea plops out??

skinnylizard · Feb 28th, 2008, 18:26

the first one, where u press the button and get your liquid.

We just bought a new one for my section of the office. Takes coffee as well as tea simlataneously and then one simply chooses what one wants... if i remember ill ask accounting tom and figure where they placed the order...

be much appreciated mate.

Hokies,

I still havent managed to get a number from accounting..they are in the middle of an audit....so tea is only a priority with respect to having enough available to drink right now :-)

What i have found out :-

1. Available in many stores catering to home/office supplies.

2. Barista/Coffee day also have machines (not confirmed)

3. They can be hired monthly and not necessarily bought.

and here's a link which should do the trick for you , just call them and get the info :-

Now i await my invitation to tea !

hey,

moment i get the machine you can come over and cut the ribbon so to speak.

i looked at that link. ok, no great shakes. i did find one gem, exactly the kind i want

waiting to hear back from them. can you tell me what make your office machine is?

Aishah · Mar 1st, 2008, 14:54

that looks really nice - does it do chai with spices or is it just a plain milk tea? Also what is the cost and the name of the machine?

skinnylizard · Mar 1st, 2008, 16:04

no clue, havent heard back from em folks.

puchoo · Mar 25th, 2008, 10:53

They are really taking their own sweet time..... did you write to them or call them...if the former i would suggest a call...

Yes, a nice machine, puchoo, and can do coffee as well, which might suit other people (would suit me too!)

puchoo · Mar 25th, 2008, 12:47

Yep, thats the best part ...they can do coffee + tea and though i have not tried my office guy was telling me that either coffee/te can be replaced with soup powder during the winter and one can have soup...!!

never heard back from the dudes. tried calling, no answer. weirdos. sucks coz the machine looked perfect.

the ebay machine is perfect but a little too much firepower for my needs.

I've got an excellent tea maker in my office ... he's called Ashok, and he also does photo copies and provides free Hindi lessons!

We also have one of those big Nescafe machines as in the photo earlier in the thread ..... not recommended if you take coffee with your sugar.
