Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Pot Bistro in Keswick, Cumbria, wanted to move away from traditional ice buckets that left tables wet and  required constant attention from staff. They needed a more elegant and  practical solution for their popular table service.

"The APS coolers are fantastic. They look so much classier on the table and  we’ve completely eliminated the problem of condensation puddles. Our staff can focus on the guests, not on mopping up water. They just work, plain and  simple."

Robert Davies – Owner

The bistro saw an immediate improvement in table presentation and  a notable reduction in staff time spent on table maintenance during busy evening services.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unpack and  inspect the cooler for any damage from shipping.
  • Give it a quick wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • There's no assembly! It's ready to go straight out of the box.
  • Simply place a pre-chilled bottle inside to begin serving.

Keeping It Going

  • Clean after each use with a soft cloth and  mild detergent.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the acrylic.
  • This item is not recommended for dishwasher use; hand-washing will preserve its clarity.
  • Ensure it is completely dry before storing to maintain its pristine look.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Wine Cooler

Not sure what fits best for your business? Here are a few pointers to help you decide on the right tabletop wine chiller.

Material Matters

Acrylic offers a great balance of elegance and  durability, making it ideal for busy environments. It's lighter than glass and  far less likely to break, saving you on replacement costs.

Insulation is Key

A double-walled design, like this one, is superior to single-walled coolers. It provides far better insulation and  prevents condensation, keeping tables dry and  presentable.

Check the Bottle Fit

Consider the types of bottles you serve most. This cooler's 100mm internal diameter is perfect for standard wine bottles, but always check if you frequently serve wider champagne or prosecco bottles.

Consider the Footprint

In a packed restaurant, every inch of table space counts. A cooler with a compact base ensures there's still plenty of room for glassware, plates, and  side dishes.

Ease of Cleaning

Look for equipment that saves your staff time. A simple wipe-clean acrylic wine bottle cooler is much more efficient than metal buckets that need polishing or complex coolers with multiple parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does this cooler need ice or freezer packs?

A: No, it works purely through its double-wall insulation. You just need to put a pre-chilled bottle inside and  it will maintain the temperature.

Q: Will a standard champagne or prosecco bottle fit inside?

A: The internal diameter is 100mm. This fits most standard 75cl wine and  many sparkling wine bottles, but some wider-based champagne bottles may be a snug fit. It's best to measure your most-used bottles if unsure.

Q: Is the acrylic material dishwasher safe?

A: To maintain its crystal-clear appearance and  prevent clouding, we strongly recommend hand-washing with a soft cloth and  non-abrasive detergent.

Q: How does this compare to a stainless steel wine cooler?

A: This acrylic cooler is lighter, won't dent as easily as some metals, and  importantly, its double-wall design prevents condensation or 'sweating' on the outside.

Q: Is the chrome rim just for looks?

A: While it primarily adds a touch of style, the rim also provides a little extra reinforcement to the cooler's edge, protecting it from minor knocks.

Q: How durable is the acrylic?

A: It's designed for commercial use, meaning it's highly shatter-resistant and  can withstand the daily rigours of a busy restaurant or pub environment much better than glass.

Q: Can you feel the cold on the outside of the cooler?

A: No, thanks to the double-wall insulation, the outer surface remains at room temperature, making it comfortable to handle and  preventing water marks.

Q: Is it heavy for staff to carry?

A: Not at all. It weighs just under half a kilogram (0.47kg), making it exceptionally lightweight and  easy for any member of staff to carry to tables.

How Double-Wall Insulation Keeps Wine Perfectly Chilled

Ever wondered how this cooler works so well without any power or ice? The secret is its double-wall insulation. Think of it like a double-glazed window or your favourite travel mug. The cooler is made of two layers of acrylic with a pocket of air trapped between them. This air gap is a very poor conductor of heat.

When you place a cold bottle inside, the air pocket acts as a barrier, dramatically slowing down the transfer of warmth from the room to the bottle. At the same time, it stops the cold from the bottle from chilling the outer surface, which is why you don't get any messy condensation. It’s a simple but incredibly effective bit of science that keeps your wine at its ideal serving temperature for longer, ensuring a better experience for your customers from the first sip to the last.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Restaurants: Perfect for presenting your wine list's finest whites and  rosés directly at the table with style.
  • Pubs & Wine Bars: A brilliant, no-fuss upgrade from standard metal coolers, keeping prosecco and  wine perfectly chilled.
  • Hotels: An elegant touch for room service, events, or in-house restaurants to elevate the guest experience.
  • Event Caterers: Lightweight and  durable, making it easy to transport and  set up for weddings and  corporate functions.
