Product Description
Coffee Without the Carafe!
Cuisinart lets you have your coffee on demand! The Cuisinart DCC-3000 Coffee on Demand dispenses one cup at a time with an easy to use actuator. Hold up to 12 cups of coffee in the double-wall coffee reservoir. The easy to read coffee gauge lets you know how many cups of coffee are left, and the included charcoal water filter keeps your coffee tasting great. The DCC-3000 makes coffee easy-- its fully programmable with 24-hour advance brew start, programmable auto shutoff, self-clean, and a 1-4 cup setting to brew smaller amounts that still taste delicious. Remove both the coffee and water reservoirs for easy clean up.
Note:Coffee grounds/particles are accumulating coffee container where the brewed coffee exits the container, which prevents the gasket from sealing correctly when the dispense lever is released. When/if this happens, the valve needs to be rinsed with tap water while holding the valve (located on the bottom of the container) open to flush any grounds/particles out.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The removable water tank on this is why we bought it and it doesn’t disappoint. Just lifts out and it can stand on its own in the sink which makes it super easy to fill. There is a charcoal filter that sits where the water moves through so filling it from the tap is easy. We previously had a Cuisinart so I’m happy we can still use the same filters.
The filter basket is easy to lift out and clean. It comes with a gold one but we prefer paper filters. The manual is VERY specific about using one OR the other, so don’t double up (like we did the first time.) I found Bunn brand filters are slightly taller than standard and work perfect in here. When cleaning out the filter, I just hold the handle with one finger and dump the whole thing in the garbage. Someone complained about the handle getting in the way and making a mess, so that’s how I prevent that. That gets rinsed and put aside to dry after each use.
In my pictures next is the inside of the pot where the coffee tank is. At first I thought, how am I ever going to get this clean? After a minute I realized the entire tank simply lifts out by a handle!! I have a feeling a lot of people aren’t taking this out to clean it daily, and that will definitely cause issues. There are some grinds leftover no matter what we do so it’s very important to clean this. I just rinse it a few times and put it aside to air dry.
IMPORTANT STEP! On the underside it says to push in on the valve while rinsing the coffee tank so that water flows through. This will keep any grinds from getting stuck. It’s got to be impossible to have issues with this machine if you’re doing this.
My last picture shows the top view of the opening where the coffee tank valve meets the “button” to dispense coffee. There is nothing there, nothing to get stuck. This tells me that the issues of the button getting stuck and gunked up with grinds are because people aren’t taking out the tank and finding through the valve often.
This machine is really well designed. All extra water in the machine funnels down to the drip tray, so there aren’t any weird puddles or spills. Drip tray is removable, so when my husband has to fill his huge Yeti before work, he just takes it out and leans his Yeti against the edge of the counter. The buttons and functions are easy to use, auto off is customizable which we like. The coffee tank keeps the coffee hotter for longer than your typical carafe. We grind our beans daily and our coffee is very consistent in taste.
Our toddler loves to get us our coffee by using the button so that’s a fun extra. Overall, a really great machine with easy to use functions and should last a very long time with proper maintenance as per the manual.

Other reviews I've read complained of leaks and drips. I've not had any major problems with this but I did experience some water on my counter top one morning. I discovered that the drip pan had run over. I emptied the pan and dried everything off. Then I ran the unit again without the coffee. I small amount of water (no more than a tablespoon) runs into the pan near the end of the brewing cycle. Once brewing stopped, I opened the lid and observed that the steam generated during brewing had condensed into water droplets on the lid and shower head. As I tilted the lid back more droplets ran down the rear inside of the unit and out into the drip pan. My conclusion is that there is not anything wrong with the unit and that the water running into the drip pan is just condensation and not a leak. I just have to remember to check the drip pan every couple of days and empty it. Problem solved.
I have been using the included wire mesh basket to hold the ground coffee. The cons to this are that the basket is a bit difficult to clean and it allows more of the fine grounds to pass through resulting in a fine sludge at the bottom of the pot. If you use the mesh basket you'll need to clean the unit more often. The pros to using the mesh basket are that you are saving trees and I think the coffee actually has a bit more flavor, and isn't that what it's all about?
The unit is a bit bigger than it looks in the photo and does take up a good bit of counter space. It's billed as a 12-cup unit but they are basing it on 5 oz cups. An actual cup is 8 oz so you are really only getting 7.5 cups from a full pot. I've had many coffee makers over the years but this is my first with a dispenser instead of a carafe. So far I've been very happy with it.
In conclusion, while the unit is a bit bulky, it is very attractive. It is easy to use and maintain. Most importantly, it makes a great-tasting cup of coffee!
Top reviews from other countries
I was intrigued by the notion of no coffee pot. I thought it was a really nice-looking machine. But in theory, I felt like there would be more cleaning to do because the coffee is stored inside the machine in a reservoir, and I assumed it would be tricky to clean that out every day.
I decided to just give it a shot. It arrived and right away, I thought it looked a lot more impressive than I'd expected. It's a very sharp looking machine. Also, it keeps a pot of coffee hot longer than your typical coffee pot, in my experience. This is important to me as I drink coffee for hours after I wake up.
First night, I set the coffee maker to brew a pot 10 minutes before I would be waking up. I got up that morning, came to my kitchen, viola. Fresh brewed coffee, no pot, just a convenient tab you press down like when you're getting coffee in a hotel lobby.
Have had it for about a week now. Cleaning the coffee filter out and the coffee reservoir (the chamber that holds the whole pot of coffee inside the machine, is much easier than I expected. Both the coffee filter and the coffee reservoir/chamber have convenient little handles, and they slide right out of there with ease. And then it's really easy to rinse them.
I can honestly say that so far, this coffee maker has been much better in general than I expected. It looks nicer than I expected, it's easier to operate and clear than I anticipated, the coffee stays hotter and taste better than I'd expected.
Really good buy here.

予備の保管用に購入しました。
(クイジナートはアメリカのメーカーのため、修理の際は保障期間中は代替品と交換になるはずです。)
味はお湯を沸かして手で淹れるのと明らかに違い、このコーヒーメーカーで淹れたコーヒーは
まろやかで飲みやすいと思います。
温度が低いという意見もあるようですが、私はちょうど飲み頃の温度で満足しています。
大勢で集まる時も大活躍で、飽きのこないデザインも注目の的です。
味も満足ですが、このデザインは国産メーカーにも見習って欲しいですね。
1. The dispensing system, as I don’t carry the pot to a table, I just pour a cup when I want it.
2. No more crusties on, or the finish coming off the bottom burner.
3. Looks much tidier on the counter.
With respect to the complaints of others:
1. The power cord is enclosed in a cavity at the back of the machine. It is about 2’ long. The unused cord is out of sight and tidy. BUT, I did have to pull harder than I expected to get it to begin to come out.
2. Drips and leaking - the dispenser has a spring loaded valve similar to any coffee maker where you can steal a cup while brewing. If grounds escape the filter they will likely break the seal. THIS MUST BE KEPT CLEAN.
3. Carbon filter - there is a holder for it, so it does not float around as at least one reviewer stated. Don’t know if it actually does anything, I use filtered water to begin with.
4. Heat - serves a hotter cup than the machine it replaced.
5. Clock / timer while not intuitive works - read the manual.
Cons:
1. It requires more cleaning, more regular cleaning than a standard machine - see drips
2. While everything that requires cleaning is modular and lifts right out, the reservoir has a lip all the way around the top which prevents easy draining of old coffee or rinse water. I’d like to see a spout area.
3. The manual could be a bit more detailed, to avoid most of the above complaints.
I like it. For me the pros far outweigh the cons. It is a tidy looking machine that makes a good cup of hot coffee. I will leave a cup under the dispenser while brewing and I won’t have it brew when I am not attending it.
