Our take
Cuisinart's DGB-2 combines a single-serve brewer with a removable conical-burr mill. The manual gives a 100 g bean-hopper maximum and describes grinding directly into the reusable HomeBarista cup until that cup is full, followed by brewing at an 8, 10 or 12 oz setting. The maker page also lists pre-ground coffee and single-use pod options. That integrated routine may suit someone who wants one appliance for grinding and brewing a single serving. The fill-stop behavior is not weight dosing, and the reviewed sources do not establish adjustable grind settings or a supported grind range. Cuisinart marks the model discontinued and out of stock on its page; the gray historical title and ASIN `B0BF61SMKP` are not mapped to the maker's black variant. This is a manual-based review, not a hands-on test or current-offer claim.
Single-serve buyers prioritizing integrated format; unsuitable for a standalone-grinder or portafilter-workflow requirement..
A shopper who requires a standalone grinder, adjustable grind steps or a supported grind range, gram-target dosing, a separate grounds bin or portafilter workflow, or a current gray DGB-2 offer without exact identity evidence.
Pros & cons
What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.
What works in its favor
- The grinder and single-serve brewer share one documented workflow, with a reusable HomeBarista filter cup.
- The manual states a maximum bean load of 100 g and describes an automatic stop when the reusable filter cup fills.
- The product page also lists pre-ground coffee and single-use pod options.
What to weigh up
- The automatic stop is a filter-cup fill stop, not weight dosing; 8/10/12 oz are brewed beverage sizes, not grounds mass.
- No numeric grind-adjustment setting count or supported grind range is established.
- The maker marks the model discontinued/out of stock; the gray historical title and ASIN are not mapped to its black model page.
- The inspected sources do not establish the unit's voltage, wattage, duty, grounds mass or current Amazon availability.

What the features mean for you
Suitable use
A model-level comparison for a shopper who wants an integrated single-serve brewer and grinder and accepts grinding directly into the reusable filter cup, or using pre-ground coffee or a compatible pod. The maker describes this as an integrated appliance; it cannot serve a requirement for a separate grinder body and grounds bin.
Limits and unresolved facts
This is an integrated brewer/grinder, not a standalone grinder. The filter-cup fill stop does not measure dose by weight, and 8/10/12 oz describe beverage size. No grind adjustment range, grounds mass, unit electrical rating, independent brew result or current Amazon offer is established. Cuisinart marks its model page discontinued/out of stock, but this does not establish third-party inventory.
Questionnaire reasoning
A mandatory integrated brewer/grinder format is a hard match for an identified DGB-2; it is a hard mismatch for a shopper who requires a standalone grinder. Do not let the beverage-size buttons satisfy a dose-mass threshold. No setting-type or espresso-performance match is established. Keep the row's gray finish, historical ASIN and current item identity unresolved.
Brewer workflow and capacities
The manual gives a maximum 100 g bean load and describes a fill stop when grounds reach the reusable HomeBarista filter cup. The 8, 10 and 12 oz buttons select brewed beverage size, not dose mass or grounds-bin capacity. The cup, grinder and brewer share one routine, so a shopper should decide whether that integrated format and filter-cup workflow fit the counter space and serving pattern.
Current item and model limits
Cuisinart marks its DGB-2 product page discontinued and out of stock. That is maker-reported model history, not a live inventory check on other sellers. The historical row is gray and does not map to the maker page's black model; check exact color and condition if a result appears. The reviewed sources establish neither a variable grind range nor voltage, duty or independent brew performance, and no current exact offer is verified.
What else to compare
Before you buy
Is the DGB-2 a standalone grinder?
No. It is a single-serve coffee maker with an integrated conical-burr mill.
How much coffee can the hopper hold?
The manual states a maximum of 100 g of beans.
Where does it grind?
It grinds into the reusable HomeBarista filter cup and stops when that cup is full.
Does it weigh coffee?
No scale or gram target is documented; the filter-cup fill stop is a separate workflow.
Does it have adjustable grind settings?
The inspected manual and product page establish a conical-burr mill, but not a numeric setting range or adjustment control.
What beverage sizes are selectable?
The product page lists 8, 10 and 12 oz; these are brewed liquid volumes.
Is the gray row-248 ASIN currently offered?
No exact variant mapping or current Amazon offer is established. The maker marks DGB-2 discontinued/out of stock on its page.
Where can I check the current price?
Use the Amazon link for current offers. Check the exact model, seller, product condition, delivery, and return terms. This page does not display a live price or confirm stock.
