Vinegar isn't Enough
The problem is that you haven't cleaned your machine with good quality coffee maker cleaner. You may have ran some vinegar through it but that just isn't the same. The acidic acid in the vinegar will help with some of the calcium deposits but what about the accumulated bitter oils?
Minerals and Oils
Your water actually contains small amounts of dissolved minerals in it. When the hot water is ran through your coffee maker these minerals will begin to slowly build up on the inside mechanisms of your coffee maker. Also, at the same time, oils from the coffee itself will join in on the accumulation process.
Bitter Brew
The mineral deposits you can't really taste but the built up oils will lend a bitter flavor to your brew. Also, the longer they remain, the more bitter they will become. Now however, there is a way to remove all deposits from your coffee maker.
