Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Copper Kettle, a boutique hotel bar in Harrogate, was looking to modernise its barware. Their existing equipment was mismatched and  showing its age, which didn't align with their newly refurbished, contemporary interior.

"Our old shakers looked tired and  let the side down. The moment we unboxed the Olympia gunmetal shakers, the whole back bar looked smarter and  more professional. They feel brilliant to use and  our customers have definitely noticed the upgrade."

Robert Davies – Bar Manager

The upgrade resulted in a more confident bar team and  a visually cohesive, premium-looking service area that now matches the hotel's five-star ambition.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Unpack your new shaker tin from its packaging.
  • Give it a thorough wash with warm, soapy water before its first use.
  • Pair it with a standard 16oz Boston mixing glass (like the Olympia CD029) to create a perfect seal.
  • You're ready to start shaking!

Keeping It Going

  • For best results and  to preserve the gunmetal finish, we recommend hand-washing after each shift.
  • Use a soft cloth or sponge to avoid scratching the surface.
  • Stack them carefully when storing to prevent unnecessary dents or scuffs.
  • Regularly check the rim for any dings that might compromise the seal with the glass.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Cocktail Shaker

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

Shaker Type: Boston vs. Cobbler

Boston shakers, like this one, are two-piece and  favoured by pros for their speed and  tight seal. Cobblers are three-piece with a built-in strainer, often a good starting point for beginners but slower in a rush.

Material Matters

Always go for stainless steel. It's the industry standard for a reason: it's hygienic, durable, and  won't affect the taste of your drinks. Cheaper plated metals can chip and  rust over time.

Capacity and  Size

A 700-800ml (24-28oz) tin is the sweet spot. It gives you plenty of room for ice and  liquid to move around, ensuring a proper chill and  aeration for one or two drinks at a time.

Weight and  Balance

A good shaker feels solid but not heavy. It should have a balanced feel that makes the shaking motion natural and  less tiring during a long service.

Finish and  Style

While classic polished steel is timeless, a stylish bar cocktail shaker gunmetal finish can really make your bar pop and  reinforce your brand’s unique aesthetic.

Why a Corrosion-Resistant Finish is a Must-Have

Ever wondered why professionals insist on stainless steel? It's all about purity and  longevity. Throughout a shift, a shaker is attacked by everything from acidic lemon and  lime juice to sugary syrups and  strong spirits, not to mention constant rinsing and  sanitising. Cheaper metals can corrode, pit, or even peel, which not only looks terrible but can also impart a nasty metallic taste to your drinks.

Think of the corrosion-resistant steel on this Olympia Boston shaker as a high-quality raincoat for your equipment. It completely shrugs off everything a busy bar can throw at it. This means every cocktail tastes exactly as it should—clean, fresh, and  untainted—and your investment continues to look and  perform brilliantly, night after night.
