Mineral buildup in your coffee machine spoils the wonderful flavour of coffee! A good way to remove it, is to run a pot of cold water mixed 50/50 with vinegar through it. You may have to repeat the treatment with fresh water/vinegar several times to remove a heavy build up of minerals. Then run several pots of fresh water through the machine to rince out the vinegar. This works well in irons and kettles as well!

What type or rating of car adapter is necessary to power an espresso machine?

A home espresso machine needs to heat water in a boiler to build up steam. I imagine most home modles would work with a 300 watt inverter, but if you have a pump driven system, like a Starbucks Barrista it may take more. If you don't know what you have, a pump driven system usually costs more than $300.
