Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Anchor & Compass, a popular seaside pub in Torquay, was struggling with inconsistent pours and subsequent stock discrepancies during the busy summer season. They decided to standardise their entire back bar with new optics.
"Our bar staff are brilliant, but free-pouring was causing headaches with stock-take. Switching to these Beaumont counter measures gave the team confidence to pour quickly and accurately. No more guesswork, just perfect serves and happier managers."
Michael Davies – Landlord
After a full rollout, the pub reported a 12% reduction in spirit wastage and a noticeable increase in service speed during peak times.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure your shelf or counter is clean, dry, and sturdy enough to support the bracket and a full bottle.
- Securely screw your counter bracket (sold separately) into place, checking it is level before tightening.
- Slide the Solo optic into the bracket until you hear and feel it click firmly into position.
- Invert your chosen spirit bottle and insert it carefully but firmly into the top of the measure's cork seal.
Keeping It Going
- Regularly wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth to prevent any sticky spirit residue from building up.
- To clean the mechanism, remove the bottle and dispense any remaining liquid from the optic.
- Periodically rinse the measure by dispensing warm (not boiling) water through it until it runs clear.
- Check the cork and seals for signs of wear or cracking over time, as they are crucial for a perfect, leak-free seal.

Explore more from BeaumontWhat Does 'Government Stamped' Actually Mean for Your Bar?
You'll often see 'Government Stamped' or 'CE Marked' on a commercial spirit measure, but what does it really mean for your business? Think of it like a MOT for your optics. It is a legal requirement in the UK for selling 'prescribed' spirits like gin, vodka, rum, and whisky by the glass. The stamp is a guarantee from an official body that the measure has been tested and certified to dispense the exact volume stated—in this case, 35ml. Using a stamped Beaumont Solo spirit dispenser protects you from Trading Standards and ensures your customers are never short-changed. It's the simplest way to ensure every single pour is fair, legal, and perfectly consistent.
Who Should Buy This?

- Nightclubs & Music Venues: To equip multiple bar stations for high-volume service where speed and preventing over-pours are crucial.
- Hotels & Restaurants: For maintaining consistency and stock control in the lounge bar, ensuring a professional guest experience every time.
- Mobile Bar Services: A robust and reliable solution that's easy to set up for events, weddings, and festivals.
