    I believe those machines or any machine that makes a heated product requires “Distilled” water.

    Now, now... I like mine. It is kind of like the every two week cleaning lady, have to show it a little "affection/attention, to get the better results.
    (See a prior post on filtered water use and occasional flush.)

    Dam... Man knows which end to stick under the trailer but cannot manage an appliance in front of him on the counter. :rolleyes::rolleyes:
    Mine was given me by my girls 2-3 years ago, has a 4-8-10 oz setting, and 1 strong push button. Cost them $75 then as I argued to much. I swap tween Folgers and Max House, catch 12 for $5.95 at Dollar General. Obviously there are better ways for different users, and volume drinkers, and more cost conscious.

    (A cheap hot plate, small 6 cusp alum perc/pot kept me caffed up for years from the back room of loan office and later in the shop.0

    Close.. Distilled in a coffee maker is bland/tasteless. I have used C-Pap/Bi-Pa[p for sleep Apnea for may years. Only ever use distilled as stipulated.
    Depends on your city water. In the coffee maker, try 10 bottle of filtered drinking water for a test. See the difference in taste.

    Update David Schultz...
    My post on the Convoy for Truth was in error. I copied it from a source I follow and picked up the wrong date..
    Convoy was actually Friday, 5/11/24 on the stated track. Some ref I've seen today indicate only 8 or 10 tractors showed up.
    It was commented the price of fuel, work/loads going on, were understood. Red Pete was in it. Sarah did not participate
    nor put in an appearance. Some briefs on You Tube.. Sorry guys, getting feeble in my ole age..
    .
    ADDED ......
    Today at 11:33 AM
    Anybody see Sarah at the Convoy held after the funeral?

    From what the guy who organized the convoy has said in his FB post not that many trucks and truckers showed up. Only 7 or 8 trucks, including David's red truck and I guess the people pictured. IMO most drivers don't own their own trucks and with the cost of fuel, driving a distance to attend could get expensive, not to mention loss of profit from working. Still doesn't excuse Sarah from being there. She has made no recent mention of the convoy on her FB page either. I'm sure the twins would have like to have ridden in Dave's truck on the convoy.

    Luzianne Dark Roast with Chicory. There is no other coffee. I learned to like this stuff when I was living down there. Nothing else measures up.
