Having lived in an area with hard water all of my life, I’ve become accustomed to the headaches that it entails. I can deal with the lack of lather in the shower or the erratic results from my washing machine, but my coffee maker is a different story. For years, I have had to clean the machine incessantly to maintain a steady flow of water and prevent a mineral-like aftertaste.
As you can imagine, this never-ending saga with my coffee machine is beginning to grow old, so I have actively been searching for ways to remedy the problem. I made the switch to bottled water for a while, but that was simply too expensive to maintain. Now I’ve decided to take preemptive action by using a decalcifier. Not only does the product get my machine looking like new, but it also helps prevents future mineral deposits.
My mother in-law is a coffee addict. I know that many people make that claim, but she is on a different level. Throughout the day, she drinks no less than 15 cups of coffee, and it seems like there is always a pot brewing on her countertop. A few days ago, however, she gave me a call and asked if I would come inspect her coffee maker.
She was complaining that the taste of her coffee was off and that it was taking an increased amount of time to brew each pot. I assumed that this was due to some in the machine—likely from her hard water—so I brought my Durgol over to her house. After quickly inspecting the machine, I found that my initial hypothesis was correct, and I had her coffee maker running like new in no time.
