Recurring Draught Quality Audits
Because a draught system you fixed last month can start losing you money this month.
THE REALITY OF ONGOING QUALITY
A one-time audit tells you where you stand today. That's valuable. But draught systems don't stay fixed on their own.
Temperatures drift. Line cleaning quality varies from visit to visit. Staff turns over and the habits you built get replaced by bad ones. Equipment wears. Kegs go out of rotation.
The problems you solved have a way of coming back if nobody is watching.
That's exactly what our recurring assessment program is designed to prevent.
HOW IT WORKS
We visit your location on a regular schedule and evaluate your draught system against the same criteria every time. You get a score out of 100, a detailed report delivered in real time, and a clear picture of what improved, what stayed the same, and what needs attention.
A few things that make this program different:
- We come in unannounced. Your staff performs the same way whether we're there or not, which means the results you see are accurate. No staged walk-throughs, no advance notice.
- We go over the results on the spot. After every visit, we review the findings with your manager or keyholder before we leave. You don't wait days to find out what we found.
- You can track your progress over time. Every assessment is stored in your secure dashboard. You can see exactly how your system has improved and where consistent issues keep recurring.
We check everything, every time:
- Line cleaning quality and frequency
- Walk-in and tap temperatures
- Date codes and keg rotation
- Condition of towers, couplers, faucets, and FOBs
- 20-plus quality checks per line
- Beer glass cleanliness
WHAT PROGRESS LOOKS LIKE
The average operator scores 57 on their first assessment. By the third, the average is 74. By the sixth, 92.
That's not a coincidence. It's what happens when someone is paying attention on a regular basis and you have a clear record of what's working and what isn't.
The operators who get the most out of this program treat it the same way they treat their financial reporting: as a regular, non-negotiable part of running the business.
