The CE Marked 150ml Jigger is a professional metal volume measure designed for accurate and consistent portioning of wine and other beverages in restaurants, wine bars, hotels and other HoReCa environments.
For a bar or restaurant manager, accurate measuring is not only about serving the correct amount. Standardised portions also make it easier to calculate serving costs, monitor stock and maintain the same service standard regardless of who is working behind the bar.
Why choose a 150ml measure for wine by the glass?
A 150 ml serving is particularly practical when selling wine by the glass because a standard 750 ml bottle provides exactly 5 servings of 150 ml.
The calculation is simple: 1 bottle = 5 servings. Staff can measure the wine before pouring it into the glass, while managers can easily calculate the expected yield and cost per serving from every opened bottle.
This makes portion planning straightforward and helps compare the expected number of glasses with actual wine consumption.
150ml or 125ml for wine by the glass?
Both serving sizes divide a standard 750 ml wine bottle evenly, but they suit different service concepts.
With a 125 ml serving, one 750 ml bottle provides 6 glasses. With a 150 ml serving, the same bottle provides 5 glasses. The right choice depends on your menu, wine selection, pricing strategy and preferred serving size.
Whichever portion you choose, using a dedicated measure helps ensure that the same quantity is served consistently every time.
Why use a professional volume measure?
Free pouring or estimating a serving by eye can create small differences between portions. Across dozens or hundreds of servings, these differences can affect bottle yield, stock control and the actual beverage cost per glass.
A dedicated 150 ml measure helps standardise service, allowing different members of staff to pour the same quantity consistently.
The same serving, regardless of the wine glass
Wine glasses can vary considerably in shape, diameter and capacity. As a result, the same amount of wine may look very different from one glass to another.
In a large wine glass, 150 ml may appear relatively small, while in a narrower glass the same quantity can look more generous. Measuring the wine separately ensures that the actual serving remains 150 ml, regardless of the glass used.
CE Marked for professional use
The jigger features the applicable CE conformity marking and is designed as a professional volume measuring instrument.
Its metal construction makes it a practical choice for everyday beverage service in restaurants, wine bars, hotels and other professional HoReCa environments.
Better portion and cost control
When wine is sold by the glass, serving size directly affects the yield and profitability of every bottle. With a 150 ml portion, a standard 750 ml bottle can be planned as exactly 5 individual servings.
This makes it easier to calculate the wine cost per glass, set selling prices and compare expected bottle yield with actual consumption.
