heres the problem my Cuisinart DCC-1200 makes every cup of coffee really bitter and I notice that it keeps spitting out coffee grinds in the pot. Heres the problem....its doing this even when I try just filtering water through with any coffee. So far pver the last 2 days I have been just using it with water to try and clean it out and it still keeps spitting out coffee. I have made 8 pots far.

This thing might be broke for good because one day I messed up and didn't put the lip on the pot when making coffee and it caused the coffee to not drip at all and back up at the top....now im thinking the coffee actually leaked into the water reservoir

I have know other ideas how to fix this
 
Hope this helps.

WARRANTY
LIMITED THREE-YEAR
WARRANTY
This warranty supersedes all previous
warranties on the Cuisinart® Brew Central™
Coffeemaker.
This warranty is available to consumers only.
You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart®
Brew Central™ Coffeemaker that was
purchased at retail for personal, family or
household use. Except as otherwise required
under applicable state law, this warranty is not
available to retailers or other commercial
purchasers or owners.
We warrant that your Cuisinart® Brew Central™
Coffeemaker will be free of defects in material
or workmanship under normal home use for
three years from the date of original purchase.
We suggest that you complete and return the
enclosed warranty registration card promptly
to facilitate verification of the date of original
purchase. However, return of the warranty
registration is not a condition of these
warranties.
If your coffeemaker should prove to be
defective within the warranty period, we will
repair it (or, if we think it necessary, replace
it) without charge to you. To obtain warranty
service, please call our Consumer Service
Center toll-free at 800-726-0190 or write to:
Cuisinart
150 Milford Road
East Windsor, NJ 08520
To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your
return, please also enclose $10.00 for shipping
and handling of the product (California
residents need only supply proof of purchase
and should call 1-800-726-0190 for shipping
instructions). Please also be sure to include
a return address, description of the product
defect, product serial number, and any other
information pertinent to the product’s return.
Please pay by check or money order.
NOTE: For added protection and secure handling
of any Cuisinart® product that is being
returned, we recommend you use a traceable,
insured delivery service. Cuisinart cannot be
held responsible for in-transit damage or for
packages that are not delivered to us. Lost
and/or damaged products are not covered
under warranty.
Your Cuisinart® coffeemaker has been
manufactured to strict specifications and has
been designed for use with the Cuisinart®
coffeemaker authorized accessories and
replacement parts for your model. These
warranties expressly exclude any defects or
damages caused by accessories, replacement
parts or repair service other than those that
have been authorized by Cuisinart.
These warranties exclude all incidental or
consequential damages. Some states do not
allow the exclusion of or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so the foregoing
limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
 
If your machine is past the warranty period or you cannot get them to fix it I would suggest looking at the Capresso line. Its comparable in price but for as little $35 you can send in most of the little coffee brewers and have them refurbished. That is about the only thing that makes the Capresso line stand out.

Otherwise if you don't mind spending a little extra I would highly recommend Technivorm. They are offered at http://www.boydscoffeestore.com/brewing/index.php.
