After my latest cheap coffee maker died less than two months after purchase, I decided to invest in a more expensive and hopefully better one. I bought the Cuisinart model #DCC-1200 from a local store, who highly recommended this model as reliable and hard-working. “Almost everybody who works...

My coffee maker has started leaking water when brewing. There will be at least one cup of water that ends up on the counter. Can I do something to stop this other than replace the coffee maker.

mjackson ♦ Donna,
I unfortunately do not have enough information from the information you have given me. I would call Cuisinart as they have much more experience and they should be able to help. You can reach them at 1-800-726-0190. Thanks for asking.
I have owned this coffee maker for a week, and have followed the directions to set for automatic brewing, but I wake up to NO coffee. I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I am not sure why. I would get on the phone with Cuisinart when you have time and are trying to program it. They will be able to help. You can reach them at 1-800-726-0190. They provide the technical support for the products they make.
I am wondering if the Cuisinart Brew Central DCC 1200 you are selling is the brushed stainless series or the brushed metal series that is the newer finish. I really want the old stainless steel finish...and will purchase it from you if that is the one you carry. Thank-you!

Zack Smith Ashley, The DCC-1200 is the brushed stainless finish.
It still makes great coffee, but the noise when it starts and through the brewing cycle is the same as what we used to hear when it was finishing making the coffee.

I am not sure exactly what the problem is and certainly tough to tell by your description. Cuisinart does a great job with customer support and they prefer to do all of their own. I would give them a call 1-800-726-0190. They will be glad to help you.

We have a Cuisinart Brew Central Coffeemaker DCC 1200.
When plugged in all the function lights come on, but no functions actually occur; in other words the brewing cycle doesn't start.
How can we resolve this issue?

TechMilanoItalia Mike, depending on what features you want, you can get machines as low as $59.99 for a simple drip machine that does over 10 cups. But you may want to compare the different machines and features starting here: http://www.wholelattelove.com/coffee_makers.cfm Please feel free to contact our knowledgeable Sales Team for further assistance. =)
The filter basket becomes backed up with water and does not release into carafe.I tried with only paper filter and then only gold tone basket. That is not the problem. Also tried with just water- so I know it is not the type of coffee grind.

Whole Latte Love Staff My first recommendation would be to make sure the lid is attached to the carafe properly - the top of this lid presses up against a spring-loaded stopper in the filter holder to allow your coffee to drip through. In addition, I would verify that the filter holder is seated properly in the machine is - down as far as it goes - so that the stopper is able to be pressed by the lid. If you’ve tried these things and are still experiencing a problem, I would recommend contacting Cuisinart directly for further assistance. They can be reached by phone at 800-726-0190.
It is about our 12 cup Cuisinart coffee maker. Although it makes wonderful coffee, it makes a horrendous amout of steam. I've used a commercial cleaner and replaced the filter. Is there anything else we can try?

Whole Latte Love Staff Your problem could be as simple as a loose tube connection inside the machine. Since Cuisinart handles all of their own troubleshooting and repair issues, I would recommend contacting them directly at 1-800-726-0190. They will be able to correctly idagnose the problem and give you a quick solution.
My coffee will not stay hot. The heater goes off as soon as my coffee brews. I've checked the owner's manual and there doesn't seem to be a troubleshooting guide.

Whole Latte Love Staff The Brew Central has a programmable auto shut-off feature that can be set to turn off the machine anywhere from 0 minutes to 4 hours after brewing. It sounds like you may have accidentally set it to 0 minutes. Check your user manual for instructions on how to reset the auto shut-off time to a time you find more appropriate. If you’ve tried this and continue to have problems, I would recommend contacting Cuisinart directly at 800-726-0190.
