  1. Chapter 3BAR PARTS AND EQUIPMENT LAYOUT Bar & Beverage Service with Mixology By: Lorenzo G. Rojo

  2. The elements in determining the placement, size, and shape of the bar: • The element of décor, • The element of function

  3. The size and shape of the bar, its appearance, and its position in the room are typically planned by the owner, architect, or interior designer whose primary concerns are layout and décor. The working areas, where the drinks are poured are planned by facilities design consultant or by an equipment dealer

  4. Factors that affect the space in assigning the bar location: • Drinks to be served • Projected volume of business • Space and equipment needed to serve the drinks

  5. Parts of the Bar

  6. A bar is made up of three parts:1. Front Bar2. Backbar3. Underbar

  7. Front Bar The front bar is a customers’ area, where they order their drinks and where the drinks are served.

  8. Parts of the Front Bar: • Bar table • Rail • Bar die • Glass rack • Arm rest • Foot rest • Pick up station

  9. Backbar

  10. The Backbar has a double function:1. the decorative function of display and;2. the work function of storage.

  11. Underbar The underbar is the heart of the entire beverage operation and deserves the most careful attention to its design.

  12. Parts of the Underbar: • Pouring station • Speed rail • Ice bin • Bottle wells • Hand sink • Drain board • Glass sink • Waste dump

  13. Considerations in Purchasing Equipment

  14. Some General Considerations in Selecting Bar Tools and Equipment: Survival Appearance Function Ease of care

  15. Look for Quality !!! It makes very good business sense to invest in high quality equipment for your bar.

  16. Survival Quality equipment will last longer and will withstand better the wear and tear of a high-speed operation. Heavy-gauge surfaces will resist dent, scratches, and warp. Heavy-duty blenders will better survive the demands of mixing frozen drinks. Quality glasses will break less easily than thin brittle ones.

  17. Appearance Quality products are usually more pleasing to the eye, and are likely to maintain their good looks longer. Cheap glassware becomes scratched and losses its gleam. Cheap blender containers get dingy-looking. So do work surfaces. Since much of your equipment is seen by your customers, it is important to have it project an image of quality, cleanliness, and care.

  18. Function High-quality products are less likely to break down. Breakdowns of any kind hamper service and give a poor impression of your operation. If your pourer sticks, you’ve got to stop and change it. If your corkscrew bends, you may crumble the cork and loose your cool as you present the wine and the customer may refuse it. If your ice maker quits, you are in real trouble. Repairs or replacements can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. Quality products, moreover, usually come with guarantees.

  19. Ease of Care High-quality equipment is likely to be better designed as well as better made. This means smooth corners, no dirt-catching crevices, and dent-free surfaces that clean easily. It all makes for better sanitation and better appearance.

  20. Like everything else in life, quality cannot always be judged by price. For equipment quality, look at weights or gauges of metals (the lower the gauge, the thicker the metal); at energy requirements, horsepower of generators, insulation of ice bins and refrigerated storage, manufacturer’s warranties and services.

  21. Consider the design features of each item in relation to its function and sizes and shapes and capacities in relation to needs.

  22. Underbar and Backbar Equipment The major pieces of underbar equipment have surface of stainless steel which is durable, cleans easily and is unaffected by chemical cleaners needed to kill bacteria. It also looks nice and easily takes a high polish.

  23. Work surfaces of underbar equipment are a standard 30 inches high, with a depth of 16 inches to the backsplash at the rear. Units from the same manufacturer fit side by side and give the appearance of being continuous.

  24. Each piece of equipment is either on legs 6 or more inches high, for access to plumbing and ease of cleaning, or else flush with the floor. The legs have bullet feet (feet tampered like bullets) for ease of cleaning. The feet are adjustable to accommodate uneven flooring.
