Jugs And Carafes
Serving beverages efficiently requires vessels that are easy to handle and hold a sufficient volume for the intended audience. The collection of glass jugs and carafes covers a spectrum of capacities to support different hospitality and corporate needs. The products range from small single-serve options up to large vessels for shared tables.
The category is divided into several main styles based on their intended use:
- Small carafes: Options under 250ml, including 89ml and 178ml sizes, which are suited for cocktails and single-serve wine presentations.
- Medium carafes: The 250ml to 500ml range, which works well for table service and keeping beverages tasting fresh.
- Large carafes: 1-litre options that provide an elegant presentation for water or wine service at shared tables.
- Jugs: Larger vessels, such as the 1.8-litre glass jug for beer and the 730ml double-wall jug.
The clear glass construction ensures that the liquid inside is always visible, which is helpful for staff managing beverage stations. The double-wall feature on select items adds an extra layer of insulation. These items are frequently used in restaurants, hotel dining rooms, and corporate boardrooms where a professional appearance is required. Customisation is achieved through either printing or etching, placing your corporate identity directly onto the glass.
Investing in proper glassware for beverage service improves the overall guest experience and streamlines operations for the catering team. The durability of the glass means these items can withstand regular use in a busy hospitality environment.
Common Questions
What is the difference between printing and etching?
Printing applies ink to the surface of the glass, which can make your logo stand out more clearly. Etching removes a fine layer of the glass to create a frosted, permanent mark that will not wash off.
Do these items fit in a standard commercial dishwasher?
Yes, the glass construction allows them to be cleaned in commercial dishwashers. However, care should be taken with the larger 1.8-litre jugs to ensure they fit correctly in the racks.
Can the small carafes be used for spirits?
The smaller 89ml and 100ml carafes are often used for serving spirits, cocktails, or individual wine tasting portions. Their compact size makes them easy to handle and portion accurately.
