What to do if indicator lights are flashing on my Cuisinart DGB-2 Coffee Maker?

  If all the button lights are flashing in sequence, it means it is time to clean your coffeemaker. Refer to the decalcification instructions. If the Grind button indicator is flashing, it means your grinder is overloaded. Press the Power button and unplug the unit, wait 5 seconds, then the Grind button will illuminate to grind again. If it continues to flash, remove the burr grinder and clean it thoroughly. If all Brew Size buttons are flashing, the coffeemaker is overloaded and can be used again after all lights stop flashing. If the lights don't stop flashing, please return the appliance to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center.

Why won't my Cuisinart DGB-2 brew?

  First, ensure that the HomeBarista® Reusable Filter Cup or a pod is properly placed in the brew chamber and the handle is securely pushed down, so all button indicators are illuminated. Then, press the desired Brew Size button to start brewing. Also, if the grind cycle is active, brewing will not start until grinding is completed or canceled. To cancel the grind cycle, press the Grind button once, then open and close the brew head before pressing the desired Brew Size button. If the 'Add Water' indicator is lit, refill the water reservoir and ensure it's correctly seated in its base. Finally, the piercing needle and/or exit needle may be clogged, so you may need to clean them.

Why is my Cuisinart DGB-2 not grinding beans?
- M
  Mark RandolphAug 17, 2025
  The coffee beans may be too tightly packed, so do not fill above the Max Fill line. Also, when the unit is brewing, the grinder function cannot be activated until brewing is completed or canceled. To cancel the brew cycle, press the Brew Size button once, then press the Grind button once to begin grinding. The grinder may also be jammed. Use the scoop brush to clean the grind outlet and clear away excess grounds. You can also remove the burr for cleaning by turning the grind assembly until the lock indicators are aligned, then pull the burr holder towards you and remove it from the unit.
