Depending on what the player requested, the drink will cause different things to happen (Listed below). It cannot be dropped, and can be drunk using LMB. A cup of whatever the player requested will appear in the player's inventory. If the drink the player requested is coded in the game, the machine will hum, and a liquid sound will be heard. The player can then type something in it, push enter, and depending on what they type, SCP-294 will do either 2 things. If a player approaches SCP-294 in the lobby, and clicks on the keyboard, a text box will appear on their screen. Test runs with solid materials such as diamond have failed, however, as it appears that SCP-294 can only deliver substances that can exist in liquid state. Ninety-seven initial test runs were performed (including requests for water, coffee, beer, and soda, non-consumable liquids such as sulfuric acid, wiper fluid, and motor oil, as well as substances that do not usually exist in liquid state, such as nitrogen, iron, glass, gold, etc.) and each one returned a success. Upon doing so, a standard 12-ounce paper drinking cup is placed and the liquid indicated is poured. Upon depositing fifty cents US currency into the coin slot, the user is prompted to enter the name of any liquid using the touchpad.

SCP-294 appears to be a standard coffee vending machine, the only noticeable difference being an entry touchpad with buttons corresponding to an English QWERTY keyboard.
