  • Check Which Light Is Flashing

    Different lights indicate different issues. Identify whether it's the status, water tank, or descale indicator before starting any repairs.

  • Refill the Water Tank

    A flashing water indicator often means the reservoir is empty or not seated correctly.

    Remove the tank, refill it with fresh water, and fit it securely.

  • Clean the Barcode Reader

    If the machine flashes but won't start brewing, clean the barcode reader inside the brewing head. Dirt or coffee residue can stop the machine recognising the T DISC.

  • Complete a Full Descaling Cycle

    If the descale light is flashing or remains illuminated, run the complete descaling programme using the yellow Service T DISC and suitable descaling tablets.

  • Inspect the Brewing Head

    Open the brewing unit and remove any coffee residue or damaged T DISCs.

    Ensure the brewing head closes fully before attempting another brew.

  • Restart the Machine

    Turn the machine off, unplug it for a few minutes, then reconnect the power.

    This can clear temporary electronic faults.

FAQ's

  • Why are all the lights flashing on my Tassimo?

    Multiple flashing lights usually indicate that the machine cannot complete its preparation checks. Start by checking the water tank, brewing head, and T DISC, then restart the machine.

  • Why does my Tassimo keep flashing after descaling?

    The descaling programme must be completed in full using the Service T DISC. If the cycle is interrupted, the descale light may remain on until the process is repeated correctly.

  • Why is my Tassimo flashing but not making coffee?

    This is commonly caused by a dirty barcode reader, a damaged T DISC, an incorrectly fitted water tank, or limescale restricting the brewing system.
