BAR DESIGN ON THE FLY: Top 10 Checklist for an Efficient & Profitable Bar In today’s bar and restaurant industry, effective bar design is more crucial than ever. With challenges like limited staffing and an increase in less experienced workers, having a well-thought-out bar layout and organization is essential. A properly designed bar streamlines the preparation of complex drinks and plays a key role in boosting a restaurant’s profitability, as beverage sales typically yield higher profit margins than food sales. This quick 1 hour webinar serves as a good starting place for any bar design. The 3 main learning objectives are: Understand Key Design Principles: Learn how to design a bar layout that supports smooth cocktail preparation and service efficiency. Optimize Workflow and Storage Solutions: Gain insights into efficient workflow patterns, glassware storage, and strategic placement of essential bar elements. Prioritize Practical Functionality: Recognize the importance of planning for mixers, ice types, garnish prep, and cleanliness to maintain an organized and productive bar environment. These objectives will help guide attendees to build a comprehensive and profitable bar design. 1 CEU for FCSI Consultant Members Click here to join the webinar or contact Corrinne Walenda for more information corrinne.walenda@perlick.com Corrinne Walenda […] |

5 events,Building Management Systems for Modern HVAC - PDH Course Description: Modern buildings are complex; there are lighting systems, HVAC, pumps, security systems, utilities, and more. More often than not, it makes sense to connect all this equipment to a centralized controller or Building Management System (BMS) in order to properly monitor and control it all. In this video we explore how a custom BMS can extract the most performance out of a sophisticated piece of equipment like Paragon HVAC. We apply various use cases including troubleshooting, comfort, and efficiency examples, with a look towards the future and the use of AI. Prerequisite Knowledge: None Learning Objective 1: Understand what a Building Management System is and its basic uses. Learning Objective 2: Compare and contrast traditional HVAC troubleshooting with the proactive approach Building Management Systems can provide. Learning Objective 3: Understand how Building Management Systems can be used by engineers to improve the efficiency of HVAC equipment. Learning Objective 4: Understand how HVAC equipment can be improved using large pools of data gathered by Building Management Systems. This program is designed to review all types of refrigeration systems,(package & self contained) and includes parts of systems. This is non manufacture specific and covers hydrocarbon refrigerants, controls, and types of compressors and how refrigeration systems work. Program is about 2- 2.5 hours. Starts 09:30 AM -11:30/Noon. Lunch will be provided.

3 events,Course Description: Walk-in coolers and freezers are not just for restaurants. They’re found in schools, hospitals, food-processing plants, and laboratories. Sometimes a stocked, prefabricated walk-in will suffice, but most coolers and freezers require a custom solution. This course will walk you through the specification considerations for a custom walk-in including size, temperature, refrigeration, energy efficiency, floors, doors, and more. You’ll see how each area relates to one another in supporting an energy-conscious and durable walk-in assembly. Learning Objectives: At the end of this course, participants will be able to: Review all components of a walk-in cooler/freezer assembly and how an energy-efficient refrigeration system works. Identify all the considerations when determining the size of a walk-in cooler including the products to be stored, shelves and carts, ventilation, and future needs. Determine a walk-in’s temperature based on type of products, humidity, usage, and more. Acknowledge the importance of the cooler’s insulated panels’ R-value, efficient refrigeration, and controls/monitors to meet or exceed energy-administration requirements. Explain how walk-in panels contribute to LEED v4. Address the importance of specifying the right door, floor, finishes, and other considerations Contact Marilou Leclaire for more info - mleclaire@norbec.com |
