Frequently asked questions

What sizes and drinks can the 166 brew?

The 166 brews individual 6 or 10 oz. cups of coffee or tea, and lets users select cup size and brew strength for a cup in the flavor and strength of their choice.

What kind of pods does the 166 use?

The 166 uses biodegradable, environmentally friendly single-serve coffee or tea pods, supporting workplace sustainability without sacrificing convenience.

How does the used-pod disposal work?

After each brew, the 166 auto-ejects the used pod into a built-in trash bin, keeping the counter tidy and cleanup simple.

Can I get hot water for tea or oatmeal?

Yes. The 166 dispenses hot water for other beverages, soups, and oatmeal.

What needs to be ready before installation?

You’ll need a cold potable water supply with pressure between 35 and 60 PSI, a dedicated 120 VAC/60Hz/15 amp outlet within 2.5 feet of the machine (no extension cords), and roughly 11″ W x 17″ D of countertop space with at least 18″ of height clearance above. The machine must be installed within 25 feet of a water source. Your local Culligan Quench expert can confirm the details before installation.
