Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Alchemist's Nook, a speakeasy-style bar in Bristol, needed barware that matched its sophisticated, vintage aesthetic without compromising on performance during peak hours.

"We were using standard stainless steel strainers, and  they just looked out of place with our decor. The Beaumont Mezclar strainers were the perfect upgrade. They look the part and  handle a busy Friday night service with ease."

Robert Green – Head Bartender

The new strainers have become a talking point with customers, subtly reinforcing the bar's premium, authentic atmosphere and  attention to detail.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, give it a quick wash in warm, soapy water.
  • The spring can be easily detached for a thorough initial clean if you wish.
  • Check that the spring is seated correctly for a snug, secure fit in your shaker.
  • Use the handle hole to hang it on your bar rail so it's always within easy reach.

Keeping It Going

  • Always hand-wash after use. Dishwashers will damage the antique brass finish over time.
  • Use a soft cloth and  a mild detergent; never use abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals.
  • Pop the spring off every so often for a deep clean to prevent any syrup or residue build-up.
  • Dry it completely with a soft cloth before storing to maintain its beautiful lustre.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cocktail Strainer

Not sure which strainer is right for your bar? Here’s a quick rundown to help you decide.

Style vs. Speed

Consider your bar's theme. A stylish antique brass cocktail strainer suits a classic vibe, while plain steel is a workhorse for high-volume spots.

Hawthorne, Julep, or Fine Mesh?

The Hawthorne (like this one) is the versatile all-rounder for shakers. A Julep strainer is for mixing glasses, and  a fine mesh strainer is used for double-straining to remove tiny particles.

Ease of Cleaning

A detachable spring, like the one on this Mezclar model, is a massive plus for hygiene, making a proper deep clean quick and  simple.

Comfort and  Weight

A strainer should feel balanced and  comfortable in your hand. A lightweight but sturdy design prevents fatigue during a long, busy shift.

Material Matters

A stainless steel core provides the durability needed for professional use, while a special finish like antique brass adds character and  style. Choose what best fits your needs and  brand.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is a Hawthorne strainer used for?

A: It's designed to fit perfectly inside a cocktail shaker tin, holding back ice and  other solid ingredients like fruit or herbs when you pour the drink.

Q: Will this fit a standard Boston shaker tin?

A: Yes, absolutely. Its flexible spring allows it to create a snug fit in all standard Boston shaker tins and  mixing glasses.

Q: Is the antique brass finish a coating?

A: Yes, it is a high-quality antique brass plating over a durable stainless steel body. This gives you the best of both worlds – timeless style and  professional strength.

Q: What does 'throwing strainer' mean for its design?

A: It means the strainer is optimised to provide a clean, controlled, and  splash-free pour, which is essential for the advanced 'throwing' technique used to aerate drinks.

Q: Can I put this in the dishwasher?

A: We strongly recommend you don't. To preserve the beautiful antique brass finish for years to come, it should always be washed by hand with a soft cloth.

What's the Advantage of a 'Throwing' Strainer?

You might see 'throwing' and  wonder what it means. It refers to an impressive bartending technique where a drink is poured back and  forth between two shaker tins from a height. This process chills and  aerates the cocktail, giving it a unique silky texture, but it requires incredible control. A standard strainer might splash or give an uneven flow, ruining the effect.

This Mezclar antique brass strainer is specifically designed to master that technique. It provides a perfectly straight, consistent, and  splash-free stream. Think of it like using a high-quality fountain pen versus a leaky biro. Both write, but one gives you the precision and  smooth flow to create something truly elegant. This strainer gives bartenders that same level of control, allowing them to add a bit of theatre and  craft a superior-tasting drink.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Boutique Cocktail Bars: Perfect for elevating your presentation to match a vintage or speakeasy-style decor.
  • High-End Pubs & Hotels: A durable, professional tool that adds a touch of class to your bar service.
  • Career Mixologists: The balanced design and  easy-clean spring are ideal for crafting flawless cocktails quickly.
  • Home Bar Enthusiasts: Gives you that authentic, professional-quality feel and  look for your home cocktail station.
