do coffeemakers lose their potency with age or has the coffee in general in coffee shops etc gotten stronger the last 10-15 years?

i have pic related. i use the same ground coffee i always did. but it's only the last few years whenever i get a cup of coffee out i notice it's stronger than what i'm used to. and i like it.

i've opened it a few times over the years and cleaned it. anything else i can do? or just suggest a coffeemaker for the next 15 years, i guess i'm ready to buy a new one.

Yes they do. Hard water scales build up on the heating element and make it not as hot anymore.

Do a 50/50 run of white vinegar and water to clean it out. Then do 2 to 3 runs of straight water to make sure the vinegar is gone. It'll clean out all the internal components and if you clean the exterior it will basically be like new.
