    Many sources of calcium or carbonate ions in domestic piping (which is typically plastic copper, steel/iron or asbestos)? Nope.

    Also, residence time in domestic piping vs scheme will be tiny (if you do the dishes each day, you've probably flushed the pipes at least once).

    Impossible? No. But I'd be willing to bet water quality is significantly less likely to be the cause than other factors (such as how much water has passed through the boiler) in the case of two neighbors with the same mains supply...

      I use Brita filtered water here in Sydney byt have still had significant scale.

      One time Renzo from Di Bartoli replaced the mushroom in my machine because it was so bad and displayed it as an example of what can still happen.

      Recently I had the machine serviced by Coffee Parts and Pedro is recommending better filtered water as the scale was bad again.

      I'd say it is right that you shouldn't assume what your water quality is.
