I have the same problem and it's only getting worse. I've had the coffee maker for nearly 3 years and I noticed the leak about 3 months ago. At first I really liked the machine, but it is a pain to clean. I'm not sure I would get another grind & brew from Cuisinart. I had a free coffee maker before I got this one as a gift and it lasted much longer than the Cuisinart. Usually, their stuff is okay, but I'm a little disappointed with this machine.I have the same problem and it's only getting worse.

Same coffee maker, just in white, not stainless....same problem. Mine leaks all the time, not just during brewing. Wok up this AM to find my couter tops flooded, thankfully no water ran to the floor. Just over 2 years old, what a waste.Same coffee maker, just in white, not stainless....same problem. Mine leaks all the time, not just during brewing.

Ditto here in MA. Model DGB600 leaks from the bottom. It must be a gasket but I don't know how to get at it.

I'm on my second, I sent the first one back to the company for precisely the same problem. And now the "new" one is doing it too! I'm on my second, I sent the first one back to the company for precisely the same problem. And now the "new" one is doing it too!

When making coffee we must watch it and always have a cup under because it will leak out sometimes a little sometimes the entire brew. What could cause this? Is it fixable?When making coffee we must watch it and always have a cup under because it will leak out sometimes a little sometimes the entire brew. What could cause this? Is it fixable?

Re: Cuisinart Grind and Brew 10 cup coffee maker warm...
Replacement time. a certain percentage of thse have this problem. There is a small, non-replaceable tube in the inside toward the bottom that has become melted/damaged.
I cannot get at it. Refuse to believe it can't be fixed, unless of course I will never be able to get at it. Products that cannot be repaired are too commonplace. I will not buy another like this.I cannot get at it. Refuse to believe it can't be fixed, unless of course I will never be able to get at it. Products that cannot be repaired are too commonplace.

Re: Cuisinart grind and brew model DGB900BC leaking from the bottom. Finally fixed it before buying a new one. Remove the 4 torq screws (#10 bit check auto stores) from the bottom and remove the bottom. You will see a horse shoe shaped metal coil that heats the water from the resevoir. I found that the coil had a small hole in it. Cleaned it well and applied a coat of epoxy paste to the leaking area ( I used a product called PC11 from Ace) So far, no leaks, and the coffee maker is working like new.
you need to run a few pots of straight white vinegar through the machine to clean out the lime build up in the tubes. the first time you do it, after it starts to pump the water, shut it off for a few hours and let the vinegar sit in the tubes. after doing this run a few pots of cold water through before making coffee.
Make sure the lid is on the caraffe and just try to run plain water through. Although, it sounds like you might actually have a crack/leak. Return to store if possible or call Cuisianrt if it really is leaking.
This happens when the machine needs cleaned. Fill coffee maker with white vineger instead of water. Turn grind off, make sure empty pot is in place. Brew a pot of hot vineger. Repeat. Brew a pot of hot water. Repeat. This process removes mineral buildups inside machine. If you have access to filtered water, start using that to brew your coffee. I do and probably do this process 1 per 6 weeks.
Unplug for 20 minutes or longer, then: Cuisinart Coffeemaker Decalcification Process Run 2 cups distilled white vinegar and 2 cups water through the system - brew it like it was regular coffee. Then run plain water through the coffemaker to rinse the vinegar out and make sure the decalcification was successful. Repeat as needed. Don't forget to remove the charcoal water filters first. -Tha Mp3 Doctor
