Freepour Bottles
When you are serving drinks and a queue starts to form, the last thing you need is to be fiddling with screw tops and foil sealed lids. The Freepour Bottle is the ideal solution for serving juices and mixers when you are short of time.
Stylish, mess-free and easy to use, Freepour is an essential piece of Bar Equipment needed by every barman.
When you have finished serving, you can use the base as a storage lid and pop it back in the fridge. Made from durable lightweight plastic, it is easy to clean and the vibrant colours means the contents can be easily identified.
So whether you are serving behind a bar, hosting a party or catering for a special event, the Freepour will make it easier.
No more forcing in or off the pouring spouts, soaking or having to remove and clean pieces as it all just goes straight into the dishwasher. With the air intake hole on the shoulder of the top it prevents blockages and allows smooth flow of juice from the angled nozzle.
Developed by multi award-winning mixologist and twice world speed mixing record holder Paul Martin. Paul has used his experience as a Mixologist to develop this product inconjunction with Urban Bar.
Other useful benefits are:
- 1.08l brim full, not a US quart which is 95cl so a 5% saving in juice bill
- Three pieces: coloured top, storage base and matching coloured storage lid
- Textured neck and waisted body for easy grip
- The plastic is not brittle so tops less likely to break when dropped
- Choice of six funky colours
- Rigid, semi transparent, waisted body, prevents flexing and spillage when filling.

If your turkey is frozen, it is essential that it is defrosted completely before cooking.
Calculate your defrosting time:
- In a fridge at 4 degrees centigrade, allow about 10-12 hours per kg
- In a cool room below 17 degrees centigrade, allow about 3-4 hours per kg
- At room temperature at about 20 degrees centigrade, allow about 2 hours per kg
Test with a thermometer to ensure there are no ice crystals. When your turkey is fully defrosted, refrigerate until ready to cook.

Microfibre is the ultimate cleaning material for all surfaces and is available in cloths and mop formats.
What is Microfibre?
Fibre can be described as microfibre when it weighs less than 1 gram per 10km of length.
For most microfibres, this equates to a diameter of less than 0.12 denier. To give you an idea, this is 100 times thicker than a human hair.
Microfibre is usually made of 70% polyester and 30% polyamide bi-component fibre. It is split into 16 or 17 micro-segments by special physical & chemical treatments.

“Customers do not care what type of glass their drink is served in as long as it is served quickly and the drink tastes good” – False
Licensees now realise that their glassware, which is after all the packaging of a major part of their sales, is as important as the décor in reinforcing their outlets image.
For the licensee, choosing the right glass for each drink and being aware of its importance can make a real difference to sales and profits. How drinks are presented matters! There is literally a huge range of glass shapes available all of which have their own unique features and purpose. Self-promotion is an important part of maintaining your market share and brand awareness in the competitive world of Hospitality. Your customers are keen to associate themselves with key brands which have an image of style or, in some cases, expense!
