Problem
Traditional beer dispensing methods in bars and restaurants often lead to significant waste due to excessive foam, inconsistent pours, and difficulty in tracking consumption accurately. This results in reduced profitability and inefficiencies in inventory management and brewing process optimization.
Solution
ChoppUP offers an IoT-enabled beer dispensing solution designed to minimize waste and precisely control foam by pouring beer from the barrel directly into glasses using a bottom-up filling method. The system provides real-time consumption data, allowing bars and restaurants to improve beverage efficiency and optimize brewing processes. The solution includes a range of customizable dispensing stations and a hardware component called Myriad, which connects to the internet and generates real-time data on consumption, volume, and service times. This data feeds into a dashboard that provides valuable insights for business owners.
