Nov 24, 2008 10:19 AM Rate This Post: Report Abuse This is a question that has been asked a few times and there is an FAQ that answers this question: Tassimo FAQs - Is the T DISC packaging recyclable? The Answer: Each T DISC is designed to prepare a perfect cup and cannot be reused. The T DISC should be removed from the machine shortly after brewing and discarded. The used T DISC is suitable for energy recovery through incineration. In locations where plastic collection systems exist, you can cut away the label, rinse the remaining coffee grounds, tea leaves or milk from the chamber and deposit the chamber and label with general plastics (non PET). As for the grounds, or in the case of tea, the leaves, they are organic and can surely be put in a compost pile. I hope that helps! -- Sky LiveWorld, TASSIMO’s Inner Circle Management Partner 1-877-834-7271 viachicago22   Posts: 8 Registered: 10/30/08 (1 of 3) Recycle T-Discs? Nov 23, 2008 3:21 PM Rate This Post: Report Abuse Does anyone know if you can recycle the T-discs? They're plastic obviously but what about the grounds? I don't see a recycling symbol on them either. I was trying to talk a friend into getting one but he was concerned about the amount of waste from T-discs over the course of a lifetime. Any thoughts on this?
