Piggleston PecanpantsPicked up a new (used) coffee maker. This befuddled my partner since I run interference on everything in the house and he doesn't know something is broken until it's truly dead but our present coffee maker is showing signs of being at the end of its life cycle. Cleaned the new acquisition, though it was in great shape before, and ran several cycles through it to clean it's interior. It works great and is now on stand by. Reuse instead of refuse. A stab in the eye of capitalism. #Reuse #SaveEarth
Sarah E Bourne@LilPecan Also, this guarantees the old one will keep working for years and years!
@sbourne Ha! You've got that right. I decided to give it the same treatment I just gave the other one, to see if it does anything to prolong its life. That should help.
@sbourne My initial instincts were correct and the old one was on its way out. I was half way through descaling it when it crapped out. (All electric coffee makers should be descaled from time to time.) It won't even power on now. Kaput.
