How Commercial Bar Pourers & Speed Pourers Work
Bar pourers are brilliantly simple yet effective tools. They feature a metal spout that fits snugly into bottle necks, with an air tube that allows liquid to flow smoothly without glugging. As you tip the bottle, the pourer creates a consistent stream at a predictable rate—about 1oz per second for standard models. Some have built-in measuring chambers for precise shots, while others use ball bearings for controlled flow. The clever air displacement system means you get a smooth, even pour every time, whether you're serving premium spirits or everyday mixers.

Top Tips for Using Commercial Bar Pourers & Speed Pourers
To get the most from your bar pourers, clean them weekly by soaking in warm soapy water to prevent sticky residue buildup. Colour-code your pourers to differentiate spirits—red for whisky, blue for gin, etc. For cocktail bars, consider keeping a mix of free-flow and measured pourers to balance speed with precision. And always keep spare pourers behind the bar, as they're small enough to accidentally bin during busy cleanup.
