Chris Daley Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) I sure do. 100 drinks hot or cold. Sweetness level. And a full coffee menu + shots all for 30 baht. Large cup as well. Not to mention the points system is generous. You can get points by adding your phone number after ordering. But it is optional. Just the thought that all those clueless overpriced cafes and lazy chayen shops are going out of business makes me sleep with a smile on my face. How about you? Taobin with its clean, fast and correct orders or Thai street vendors with the smell of urine, clueless staff and overpriced menus?

Celsius Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 The taste is not up to par. The machine can not crush the ice properly. Their cups are strong and good quality I have tao bin, 7 and starbucks inside my condo. I always go to Starbucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use brown unbleached paper filters from Germany from a Japanese store in Big C shopping mall. Then coffee is an antioxidant and just as healthy as green or black tea. If I want to drink tea, I prefer Kombucha which is healthier than the ordinary "cupa". There. You learned something new from someone who knows more about the subject than you (SME). 😄 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rwill Posted June 7 Popular Post Share Posted June 7 Never tried those machines. I don't know about the 'clean' part. I guess it depends on how well they are maintained. Which in general seems to be a problem in Thailand. If there is a sugar free option I might give it a go to see how it tastes. I usually order iced latte with no sugar. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) I have had the hot latte a few times at 35 baht is cheap, but the milk is obviously powdered .... which makes the coffee taste slightly off. You get what you pay for .... PS . Tao Bin uses 100% pure cow's milk powder Edited June 8 by steven100 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consumption of coffee has been shown to benefit health in general, and liver health in particular. This article reviews the effects of coffee intake on development and progression of liver disease due to various causes. We also describe the putative mechanisms by which coffee exerts the protective effect. The clinical evidence of benefit of coffee consumption in Hepatitis B and C, as well as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and alcoholic liver disease, has also been presented. Coffee consumption is associated with improvement in liver enzymes (ALT, AST, and GGTP), especially in individuals with risk for liver disease. Coffee intake more than 2 cups per day in patients with preexisting liver disease has been shown to be associated with lower incidence of fibrosis and cirrhosis, lower hepatocellular carcinoma rates, as well as decreased mortality."

alien365 Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 I go through phases with them. I normally make my own coffee, but tao bin is a good option if you ask me when you can't be bothered dealing with people. The coffee tastes fine, not top quality but better than the cheap roadside Thai coffee places using condensed milk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digbeth Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 about last year multiple reports on thai social media that see drinks being dispensed with parts of the blender blades in the cups, must have failed and broken off about the same time it must have been 1 or 2 years since they opened Apart from that the regular cleaning cycles and the maintenance/cleaning done when they restock the supplies and water must be up to the job as i've never heard people got sick from it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
