CONTROLLERS AND SPOUTS
most objects we can cover with wired controllers specially made to pour only a bottle with sealed spout on it which automatically triggers on demand when pouring or by integrated POS system by creating a receipt
Excessive pouring represents a considerable financial loss resulting from inadequate management of the pour sizes for alcoholic drinks.
Whether bartenders engage in this practice to secure larger tips, cater to regular patrons, serve friends, or due to insufficient skills, it ultimately raises your pour expenses.
Your point-of-sale (POS) system will only account for drinks that have been specifically ordered, in the manner they were requested. Any drinks that are overlooked, given away, or pilfered will not be captured in your records. Utilizing measuring devices to assess the pour sizes can be very beneficial, provided that bartenders do not inadvertently spill them again.
The cost price percentage enables managers to assess the disparity between their actual profits and their projected targets. This analysis provides insight into performance and indicates whether enhancements are required.
What can you derive from this information?
Assuming that in July, you determine that you served 20 bottles of this brand:
This revenue target represents your goal. The closer you come to this figure, the more successful your business will be!

Eclipse liquor control system is designed to assist you in achieving results that are consistently aligned with your objectives throughout the entire year.
This system is engineered as an electronic control setup positioned beneath the bar, ensuring that it occupies no visible space. The accompanying ring on the wire is nearly imperceptible to patrons. The ring functions to detect the spouts of the bottles, subsequently dispensing a predetermined volume while maintaining a record of each transaction within the unit, which is then uploaded to the cloud.
The Eclipse liquor spouts feature a valve and a programmable RFID chip. Each spout is designed to be affixed to a bottle of alcohol, with a unique identifier ranging from 0 to 255 assigned to each brand stored in the system’s memory. When the spout is inserted into the designated ring, the chip’s identifier is read, and the corresponding product name is displayed on the screen. As the bartender tilts the ring and bottle to dispense a drink, the valve opens to release the selected portion, which can be adjusted using buttons P1 to P4.
The Eclipse alcohol spouts are calibrated to dispense at a rate of 10 ml per second, while those intended for wine by the glass dispense at a rate of 25 ml per second. The entire process of serving a single shot, from the moment the bartender picks up the bottle to when it is returned, takes approximately 9 seconds. During this interval, the portion is measured, and the shot is recorded. Multiple shots of the same spirit can be served by keeping the bottle inverted, with a programmable interval between each pour. A video demonstration is available to illustrate the service speed.
The programming of your system will be facilitated by our technical service team. To initiate this process, please provide the following:
We will program your system accordingly and send you a PDF for validation, detailing the spout numbers, assigned products, and programmed pour sizes for each item. Your system will be dispatched pre-programmed.
Upon receipt, you will need to install the system and connect it to the network (a network cable is included). We will remotely access your PC to install the necessary software, implement your programming, and connect the Eclipse system(s) to the software. You will then install the spouts on the bottles and program the chip numbers to correspond with the products on your list. A video will guide you through this procedure.
Eclipse systems can be utilized in conjunction with a serial or network thermal receipt printer. At the conclusion of each shift, a report will be generated detailing the products served, their respective pour sizes, and the total amount due.
This system is integrated also on network to your POS systems and cash registers to connect and read the data or send by email. With Liquor Manager Live software, which facilitate the group of multiple devices within a bar and provides option to automated management of beverage sales and real time check online of offline.
