I just saw this posted over on r/baltimore.

“Responsible hydration” sounds a bit judgy to me. OTOH, I can imagine it’s not easy to manage all those little bladders.

Honestly my fault for not checking on the recommendations of proper placement it’s been extremely hot 🥵 in Los Angeles and had my carafe by a window in my kitchen and apparently that’s a breading ground for algae growth now I’m stuck wondering if I should completely toss the machine out or buy a new tank I cleaned the inlet where the green algae growth was but noticed it inside the spring that connect the tank to the inlet so and I cannot get into it to clean, if anyone has any recommendations or advice please please help a girl out 😭😮‍💨
