Draft Beer Flow Meters for Bars and Restaurants
Draught beer is often a bar’s biggest hidden loss: foam, over-pours, comp pints and beers that never get rung in. Pour Controls’ draft beer flow meters measure every ounce poured from every tap and compare it with your POS sales, so you know exactly where your beer goes.
How Draught Beer Monitoring Works
- Flow meters are installed inline on each beer line, in banks of four.
- The Julie Draught Beer Controller reads every meter. One controller handles up to 48 lines, and more controllers can be added.
- The Sprint Cloud Server compares pours with POS sales for every tap and every shift.
- You see the results in live reports and a daily summary email.
What You Can Track
- Ounces poured per tap and per shift, every day.
- Poured vs. sold: the gap between the two is your loss.
- Yield per keg: spot problem lines early.
- After-hours pours: anything poured while the bar is closed.
- One dashboard: beer and liquor reporting in the same place.
