Cuisinart DCG-12BC Grind Central Coffee Grinder: Fresh Coffee at the Touch of a Button
The removable stainless steel bowl has measurement markings, so you can add exactly the amount your coffeemaker needs. The built-in safety interlock means the grinder only runs when the lid is securely closed, and the brushed stainless steel styling blends with the rest of your kitchen. The bowl is dishwasher safe, and cord storage keeps the counter tidy.
Use It for Coffee (or a Second Job)
Grind beans for drip, French press, or pour-over by pulsing to your preferred texture.
Because the blade grinder is easy to clean, you can also pulse dry spices when you’re not using it for coffee.
Store extra grounds in the covered bowl if you want to grind ahead.
Simple Operation
Add beans, place the lid, and press the button. In a few seconds you’ll have freshly ground coffee, no complicated settings required.

Product Details
Fresh Ground Coffee Starts Here
Whole beans stay flavorful longer, and the Cuisinart DCG-12BC makes it easy to grind just enough for a pot. Its stainless steel bowl keeps oils from staining plastic and is simple to wash.
Pick Your Grind by Pulsing
Coarse: short pulses for French press or cold brew.
Medium: steady pulses for automatic drip.
Fine: longer run for espresso machines with pressurised baskets.
Keep It Clean, Keep It Honest
A quick spin with a dry rice pulse helps lift coffee oils from the bowl, then hand wash and dry. If you also use it for spices, give it a thorough wash before returning to coffee.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Cuisinart DCG-12BC grind spices?
Yes, as a blade grinder it can pulse dry spices like peppercorns or cumin seeds. To avoid mixing flavors with coffee, wash the bowl thoroughly before switching between uses.
How much coffee can I grind at once?
The bowl holds 90g (3.2 oz) of beans, enough to make up to 18 cups of brewed coffee depending on your strength preference.
Why won't my grinder turn on?
Make sure the lid is fully closed and locked. The safety interlock stops the motor when the lid isn't seated properly.
Can I get a fine espresso grind with this grinder?
A blade grinder can get you close to fine, but it won't be as uniform as a burr grinder. For espresso, you'll get better results with a dedicated burr grinder.
Is the grinder BPA-free?
Yes, Cuisinart states that this model is BPA-free.

Better than pre-ground
I've been using this grinder for a year. It's reliable. The 90g capacity is plenty. The safety interlock is a nice touch. I've had no issues.

Does the job
The grind size is consistent enough for my drip brewer. It's a bit loud. But for the price, it's good.
