I am unable to find the DGB-500BK replacement water filters. The filter I have is a long black vertical filter with holes in it. The only filters I see online are the boxy white ones. They look completely different from the black ones. Anyone know where I can find these?I am unable to find the DGB-500BK replacement water filters.

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble finding replacement water filters for your Cuisinart DCC-690 coffee maker.
After some research, it appears that the DCC-690 model does not have a specific water filter that is designed to fit it. However, Cuisinart does offer a universal water filter that can be used with any of their coffee makers.
The Cuisinart DCC-RWF replacement water filter is a universal filter that is compatible with all Cuisinart coffee makers that have a water filter. It is designed to remove impurities from tap water, such as chlorine, calcium, and other minerals, to improve the taste and quality of your coffee.
You should be able to find this filter on Cuisinart's website, or at a retailer that sells Cuisinart coffee makers and accessories. It is important to note that the filter should be replaced every 60 days, or after brewing 60 pots of coffee, whichever comes first.
I hope this helps!
Hi,
Yes, the coffee maker will still work... the charcoal filter is just there to help make the coffee taste better...with most waters it does not matter...high chlorine content water is where it makes the most difference..
First remove charcoal filter. Your coffee maker is clogged with hard water grime. Run 5 cups of vinegar through it twice, then follow with a couple of rounds of water to get the vinegar taste out. It will be as good as new.
Go ahead and replace the charcoal water filters on the Cuisinart- they are usually available at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Before you insert the new filters, run a pot of water only through the coffee maker with 2 tsps lemon juice per cup of water. Also, make sure you don't use the 1-4 cup setting - it actually double-heats the water. Hopefully, this should resolve the issue. Good luck!
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

The charcoal water filters improve the taste of the coffee, although they are definitely optional. You can get replacement filters at Bed, Bath & Beyond; Williams-Sonoma; and sometimes Lowe's.
1) Run 1 tsp lemon juice per 1 cup water through Cuisinart
2) Use filtered water
3) Replace the charcoal water filters every 3-4 mos
4) Use better coffee
I just called Cuisinart and they will send me another brew basket for my DCC-100 (it has a Brew Pause valve also) for $9.14 (part + S&H). Did you try to contact Cuisinart?
