What is the white residue sometimes found on items such as coffee pots, irons, shower doors, glassware, and cookware?

The white residues are minerals that are found in the water such as calcium. Overtime and repeated water use there may be a build-up of the minerals on any item the water comes in contact with. There are commercial products that can be purchased to rid the surface of mineral build-up.
