Can extremely hard water ruin a coffee maker?

Dude asked:


Here in Austin, TX we have very hard water and my coffee maker has slowed waaaayyyyy down.
I have a Mr. Coffee coffee maker it cost me $59.00 and it was wonderful at first but now it is sloooowww.

It has a feature to let you know when the coffee is done…it beeps 8 times. But now, it beeps even though it’s not even close to being done.

Would it be better if I would use distilled water?

Put coffee filters and cigarette ***** down the toilet and this happened?

. asked:


In the basement theres water all over the one spot near the pipes. like a pond and in the shower down there coffee filters, cigarette ***** and coffee, maybe even some stuff from the toilet is coming up through the shower drain into the shower.. it stinks too.. what happened?

I left coffee in a plastic coffee mug for almost 2 months, it stinks! How can I make it usable again?

tyzekiel asked:


Its an expensive coffee mug. I tried putting some of my bleach/cleaner in it with cold water and letting it sit overnight, then running it through the dishwasher on HOT. But when I pulled it out it still smelled gross. Is there any way I can fix it? Cheers for any help.
