CMA's Undercounter Dishwasher Rack Saves Time & Labor Costs
Beer lovers love growlers. Bartenders and brewery employees? Not so much. After all, who did you think hand-washed all those take-home-and-back containers? The good news: CMA Dishmachines are showing the microbrewery industry how to clean growlers with lower labor costs.
First, Let’s Examine The Problem.
During a busy shift… rinse, rinse, drain gets old fast. Especially when cleaning (er, attempting to clean) a growler that’s been emptied days – sometimes weeks ago – which allows beer residue time to harden.
Don’t fret. CMA Dishmachines created a new reason for service industry professionals to embrace growlers. You’re going to rethink how to clean growlers.
Solution: Throw ‘em in a CMA 180UC Dishmachine with a Hi-Temp Sanitizing Washer Rack. These quart-sized containers that take so much time to service can now be cleaned and sanitized in seconds.
In the time it took you to read up to this point in the story… your CMA 180UC Dishmachine could have washed a rack of nine growlers, freeing up staff to focus on other tasks. After all, it’s hard to serve customers with soapy hands.
“This is a perfect example of a manufacturer creating a product that solves problems,” said Brian Dufries, a restaurant equipment specialist at ACityDiscount. “We expect labor costs associated with growlers in the microbrewery industry to decrease rapidly, allowing these businesses more time to focus on what they do best: make damn good beer.”
CMA has created a better way for microbreweries to satisfy consumer desire to enjoy craft beer at home... and a much better way to clean growlers that are weeks removed from their last fill-ups.
The standard Hi-Temp Sanitizing Washer Rack has nine compartments. It can handle a variety of bottle shapes and sizes (including wine bottles). The rack height is determined by the size of the bottle (max bottle size is 6” x 11 ½”). The rack fits above a spray manifold system that positions a spray jet inside the neck of each growler.
Close the unit and 60 seconds later …
How to Convert a CMA Dishwasher into a Growler Washer:
- 1. Remove the wash and rinse arms.
- 2. Replace with the Hi-Temp Sanitizing Washer Rack. Its accessories include wash and rinse adaptors that replace the lower wash/rinse arms.
