My assumption is that it is a second "clean" cycle not a "brew" cycle. Since it's not actually stated in a way that's obvious, to me, I did a second "clean" cycle dumped that water then did 12cups if water and "brewed" cycled that.
@@sarahjoyce769 I did "clean" a second time with plain water then "brew" a third time with clean water. I ran on the premise of "when in doubt, do the extra step" as I don't want vinegar tasting coffee. It worked well for me.
She said fill to 14 cups with the vinegar but she only filled it to 12 on camera. She didn't mention if we should leave the coffee basket in place. She did not mention what to do with the filter gizmo that I pulled out of the machine before cleaning. My gizmo looks awfully dirty - how do I clean that? She also didn't say whether to run the put of clean cold water under the "clean" button or a regular coffee button. She actually did a poor job!
Very well done. My ONLY constructive criticism would be to show the removal of the filter frame (just bought a used one.) That's very, very tiny. The other item would be to have mentioned what brew setting to run the clear water through. Thanks!
It should be noted that the cleaning cycle on the carafe part takes quite a few minutes. It stops and starts, stops and starts. At first I thought something was wrong. The single serve cleaning was just like making any regular cup of coffee. I cycle vinegar 2x and rinse out (brew cycle) several times. Model# SS-15BKSP1
When I clean my Cuisinart-DCC-3200 I use at least 3 full pots of water to make sure I flush the vinegar out completely....I cannot stand the smell of taste of vinegar in it's full strength. Otherwise, thanks for the info.
ruclips.net/video/PaRorrHJhmQ/видео.html I would assume that you would do a SECOND clean cycle, based on the use of "another cycle" and that refering to the previous part which was the vinegar/water mix.
@@cuisinart they want to know if the 2nd cycle is brewed normally like you would with a normal cup of coffee or do you put it on the Clean Cycle again during the cycle with just cold water
Question 🙋♀️ What to do when I have cleaned several times but the cleaning light still stays on? I’ve cleaned both the carafe and the pod areas repeatedly but light still stays on.
How about telling us how to "really" clean the thing after it overflows and grounds are all over the interior of the unit. This seems to be a problem with this unit as my UN-scientific experiments conclude that trying to steal a cup of coffee while it's still brewing can result in an ungodly mess. You must have the speed and skill of Indiana Jones and get that pot back under the spout quickly in order to reduce the risk of an overflow disaster. The first time that happened, I placed the whole unit in the sink and rinsed it down. That, for obvious reasons, killed the coffee maker. And for those that think it was a dumb move - I agree. But without coffee in the AM, thinking is difficult.
You're absolutely right. After several months of use coffee grounds and stains are in the interior of the coffee maker and there is no way to get brush or rag in there. The instructions in this video is just what the included booklet indicates to do.
If you lift the lid before you take the carafe out it will stop pouring water into the grounds while you pour your cup. I have the same issue when I try to pour my first cup in the morning. Lol I still forget to lift the lid sometime and make a mess.
The lid you pour the water into initially not the carafe lid. Obviously. I only clarify because it seems some people are insanely specific in this comment thread.lmao
I rarely comment on videos, but this content and these instructions are really poor. I’ve 3 questions: 1. Yes or no? Filter BASKET (the conical one); in place during CLEAN cycle (I got that bit about the charcoal filter being removed first.), 2.how about ounces/ml vs cups for the water vinegar mixture. I know this isn’t rocket science, but it’d make it easier, 3. As asked by others, and not answered by Cuisinart, is the second cycle just a plain BREW cycle, or the another CLEAN cycle? Thank you.
Answer to #1 - Yes, make sure you have the filter basket in with a filter inside to catch the calcium deposits. Major mistake in the video that she didn't mention that. If you don't have the filter basket in, you will have a mess! #2 - Use the carafe for your measuring regarding cups. I believe their cup sizes are 6 ounces but try 8 ounces if you have an actual measuring cup and if it fills to one cup line on the carafe, then it's 8 ounces. #3 - Clean cycle, and I would advise to use it about 3 times and then a regular cycle. This insures you get the vinegar out of the coffee maker unless you like a little bit of vinegar smell or residue in your next cup of coffee. Mistakes and experience are great teachers, and that's all I have to say about that. LOL!
Why would you remove the filter stick? It is in need of cleaning as much as the maker. Just remove the filter cartridge. At the end you say run another cycle of fresh water. Which cycle? The Clean cycle, or the Brew cycle? Confusing...
First of all, after the 9.3 "coffee-cups" of water, you said to fill the carafe all the way to the 14 cup mark with white vinegar; you only filled it to the 13 cup mark. Probably doesn't make that much of a difference; but you are Cuisinart so please be consistent. Second, you never precisely (seems to be a habit with you) answered F. Daleo's question and subsequent statement: "they want to know if the 2nd cycle is brewed normally like you would with a normal cup of coffee or do you put it on the Clean Cycle again during the cycle with just cold water." Please be specific. Thank you!
fast forward to 2:30 the shot has the (water/white vinegar) in the carafe . The woman did half it filled to 14 cups. Also, she said you repeat the 1 st. step ( w.o white vinegar) on clean cycle.
@@mike8844 At the 1:31 mark in the video, it shows the carafe being filled only to 13 cups. Can't argue with the video. I had to see if for myself, so I reviewed it again and there it is, 13 cups. They obviously did some editing because at the 2:30 mark in the video, the carafe now shows 14 cups.
I decided to read the manual to get the definitive scoop on this: To clean: 1. Fill the water reservoir to capacity with a mixture of 1⁄3 white vinegar and 2⁄3 water. 2. Press and hold the CLEAN button. When the CLEAN LED indicator flashes, the coffeemaker is in Clean mode. Release the button. 3. When the cycle is completed, 5 beeps will sound and the coffeemaker will shut off. 4. If the CLEAN indicator illuminates once more, repeat the cleaning procedure with a fresh solution of vinegar and water. NOTE: One cleaning cycle is usually sufficient. 5. When the CLEAN indicator remains off, run one cycle with a full reservoir of fresh, cold water to rinse the unit. 6. Return the charcoal water filter to the holder inside the water reservoir and your coffeemaker is ready to brew! Still doesn't say which cycle to rinse! Still, pots without a clean cycle say one brew cycle with vinegar to clean, two with water to rinse, so I assume if they say one rinse cycle is enough they mean the clean cycle.
@@mike8844 - No, Mike. She did NOT say the second cycle was to be run using the CLEAN button. She said to run a cycle using clean water. She did not specify to use the Clean button or the ON/OFF (regular brew) button.
I would assume that only a regular brew cycle with fresh water is necessary the second time. All you’re really trying to do at this point is rinse out remaining vinegar.
The vinegar will get into your filter and ruin the taste of your coffee. This is a good time to remove and replace the filter. A new filter needs to soak for 8-10 minutes so when you clean your coffee maker it is a good time to replace the filter.
How about telling us WHERE the water filter is? Finally discovered THAT after finishing the clean cycle. Am quite sure I did not put it back properly... a show and tell on that would be nice. So having run it thru the vinegar cycle, I ran the filter under cold running water for several minutes and am now doing my first brew cycle with cold water. (and the"clean" light never stopped flashing during the clean cycle. This was a very incomplete video.🤨
Followed these instructions and the water & vinegar and the mixture does not run through after holding the clean button. The button flashes and it beeps but no water filters through.
You have to wait a bit--the solution has to heat up enough to clean before it starts cycling through. There are also little delayed lapses of time while it cleans out the maker.
Way to mess up the delivery of basic instructions...and to ignore comments pointing that out. I.e., you suggest running a "second cycle" (of all-cold water) to clean it out...but fail to clarify that the second cycle should be performed with the machine on "brew," not "clean." WELL DONE
@@cuisinartCan’t believe you’re asking a customer to email YOUR marketing department to fix this unclear instructional video! Double FAIL!!! The ineptitude of Cuisinart is STAGGERING!!!!
Do I hit start button after hitting Self Clean button? Yes or No? Nothing happened for at least 5 min after hitting Self Clean. I hope it works. If it depends on the model, you should mention this. I have had constant issues of overflowing coffee grinds and now even the cleaning instructions are poor. 👎👎👎
Actually bad instructions. Need to tell us how long the process takes. Need to tell us the process will take a couple minutes to start. The process starts and stops and takes about 15-20 minutes.
Kind of feeling vindicated watching her try to pour a full carafe into the reservoir. My daily annoyance (thank God for my simple life...) Doesn't really make it all in, does it? Meh design, should have been fixed.

Try running the cleaning cycle a second time. There may be calcium buildup that needs more than run cleaning cycle to be removed.
Did it go away?
@@LifeAsDane Yes it did. I had to run two more times.
