Cuisinart Gold-Tone Permanent 10–12 Cup Coffee Filter
Product description
This is an authentic Cuisinart replacement: one gold-tone permanent coffee filter sized for 10–12 cup machines. The filter is made from a fine, laser-cut metal mesh set in a molded frame and finished in a gold-tone coating. It’s intended as a long-lasting alternative to disposable paper filters and helps retain more of the coffee’s natural oils for a fuller taste.
The basket is sized to fit 10–12 cup brew baskets and is compatible with these Cuisinart models: DCC-1000BK, DTC-975BKN, DCC-750 Series, DCC-1100 Series, DCC-1200 Series, DCC-2200, DCC-2600, DCC-2650, DCC-2750, DCC-2800, DCC-2900 and CHW-12. It installs in the brew compartment like a standard basket filter and accepts ground coffee in the usual amount for a 10–12 cup brew.
Usage is straightforward: place grounds inside the filter, set it in the machine’s brew basket, and brew as normal. For those who prefer extra clarity, the permanent filter can be used inside a size 4 paper cone as a support to prevent collapse. To clean, tap out spent grounds and rinse the mesh; occasional brushing or a quick soak clears trapped fines. Proper care keeps the mesh effective and long-lasting.
Pros
- Reusable — reduces paper waste
- Preserves fuller coffee flavor
- Fits many 10–12 cup Cuisinart models
Cons
- May allow fine sediment with very fine grinds
- Some users prefer a taller basket
- Can dent if handled roughly in transit
VerdictA durable, reusable metal filter that brings out fuller coffee flavor and cuts paper waste. It fits many 10–12 cup Cuisinart machines and works well on its own or as a support for cone papers. Expect occasional fine sediment depending on grind and routine tapping/rinsing for cleanup.

Better than Starbucks
My home brew tastes better, no grounds in the cup and no paper filters to replace.

Fits well but arrived bent
Perfect fit for my coffee maker and replaces my lost basket. Unfortunately it came dented—looks like it was crushed in a huge shipping box—so I’ll return it for an undamaged replacement.

Karl 5/5
Durable and cost-saving
Saves on paper filters so I can buy better beans. I’ve been tapping it to clear grounds daily and it’s held up great—the last one lasted about eight years. It can leave a little residue in the last sip depending on grind, but I don’t mind.

Arrived defective
A defective unit arrived: one handle broke off and detaches from the body. I requested a return but will keep using it to avoid the hassle.

Best used as paper support
I use it inside a size 4 paper cone to stop the paper from collapsing. It does that job well. If used alone it can let more sediment through than a paper filter.
