Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Fiddler's Green, a popular traditional pub in Belfast, was struggling with inconsistent pours from their old, worn-out optics, which was impacting their stocktake and profitability.
"We fitted the whole gantry with these Beaumont SL wall mounted spirit measures. The change was immediate. The bar is cleaner, service is faster, and for the first time in ages, our spirit stocktake was spot on. Our staff love them."
Sean Murphy – General Manager
By eliminating over-pours and drips, the pub reduced its spirit wastage to virtually zero, contributing to a 12% increase in gross profit on spirits in the first quarter.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure your wall bracket is securely fastened to a solid wall, capable of holding the weight of full bottles.
- Before first use, always rinse the optic thoroughly with warm water (no soap!) and allow it to air dry.
- Push the dispenser firmly onto the bracket arms until you hear and feel it 'click' securely into place.
- Insert the finned cork into your spirit bottle with a firm push and twist, then invert and place it onto the dispenser.
Keeping It Going
- Clean the optic regularly by removing it and running warm water through the mechanism to flush out any residue.
- Never use soap or detergents, as they can leave a residue and taint the taste of the spirit.
- Periodically check the cork for wear and tear to ensure it maintains a tight seal on the bottle.
- Wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth to keep your bar display looking smart and professional.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this 35.5ml measure legal for use in the UK?
A: This 35.5ml measure is the legal single measure for spirits in Ireland and is EIRE Approved. For England, Scotland, and Wales, the legal single measures are 25ml or 35ml.
Q: How do I attach it to the wall?
A: This optic is designed to be fitted to a wall-mounted bracket (sold separately). It simply slides and clicks into place on the bracket arms.
Q: Will the Beaumont Metrix SL spirit measure 35.5ml fit any bottle?

The Beaumont Benchmark: Reliability Behind the Bar
There's a reason Beaumont has been the UK's leading name in bar supplies for decades. It's about trust. When you install a Metrix SL optic, you're not just buying a piece of plastic; you're investing in peace of mind. This dispenser represents long-term value, engineered to prevent the slow financial drain of over-pouring and spillage. Its sheer durability means fewer replacements and less maintenance, freeing up time and money. For a professional bar, consistency is everything – from the quality of the drink to the efficiency of service. This commercial spirit dispenser underpins that consistency, ensuring every G&T is poured with the same accuracy as the last. It's a small, unassuming tool that plays a massive role in maintaining profitability, reputation, and a smooth, professional operation, night after night.
Explore more from BeaumontWhy the Non-Drip Mechanism is a Money-Saver
Ever wondered how a quality optic stops those annoying, sticky drips? The Metrix SL uses a precision-engineered valve system. As you push up to dispense, the valve opens to allow a perfect flow. The instant you release the glass, the valve snaps shut with a clean, sharp action, creating a perfect seal. This prevents any leftover spirit from dribbling out.
Think of it like a really effective tap washer. A worn-out one will drip constantly, wasting water and causing a mess. This mechanism is the opposite; it's designed to provide a perfect seal thousands of times over. Those saved drops add up, meaning less wastage, a cleaner bar, and more profit from every bottle.
Who Should Buy This?
- Pubs & Traditional Bars: Ideal for serving accurate measures of high-volume spirits like vodka, gin, and whiskey, ensuring total consistency.
- Nightclubs & Live Music Venues: This bar spirit measure 35.5ml dramatically speeds up service, essential for handling big crowds during peak hours.
- Hotels & Restaurants: Gives your bar a professional edge while maintaining strict portion control, directly boosting your bottom line.
- Social & Sports Clubs: A simple, reliable, and cost-effective solution for serving members and guests with accuracy every single time.
