What is a bartender's job?

Bartender is a professional who specializes in preparing and selling drinks in bars or restaurants, so that guests can appreciate the wine culture. Bartender is a professional and technical profession, and it is very unique. From 1992, the state officially began to take the qualification examination for bartenders and issued the professional qualification certificate for bartenders. People who work as bartenders must hold relevant certificates. As a modern bartender, you should have extensive knowledge, a comprehensive understanding of wines from all over the world, skilled bartending skills, good performance ability, and certain wine promotion ability. Bartender originated in England, so bartenders always give people an elegant and gentle feeling. Because bartenders have to face the guests directly and serve them every day, good manners are the first quality that bartenders should have.

The main contents of the preparation work for mixing wine: The bartender must spend enough time to finish the preparation work before actually mixing wine every day, so as to ensure that all necessary supplies are complete and all equipment works normally.

(1) Check and replenish goods. First of all, we should carefully check the quantity of goods according to the work report, and then replenish all goods according to the inventory balance of the bar. We should take out daily wine, soda, ingredients and utensils from each cabinet and put them in the customary position to ensure the cleanliness of the bar and put the prescribed decorations.

(2) Do a good job in bar hygiene. Before the bar opens, you must clean the workbench, floor, bar, desktop and refrigerator, and prepare enough towels. All bartending utensils should also be cleaned and wiped with a cup cloth. All bottles and mouths should be wiped clean. Prepare enough cups and wipe them with hot water or steam once to make them transparent and bright without water stains. For example, when bottled wine is sold or blended, the residual white wine on the bottle will make the bottle stick and slip, and the residual white wine will form hard granular marks on the bottle mouth; Bottled or canned beer and drinks will be dusty due to long-distance transportation and storage, so they should be cleaned at any time. Clean the surface of wine bottles and canned drinks with a wet towel. There should be rules to follow when cleaning wine glasses, and even unused wine glasses should be disinfected once a day. When wiping the glass, you should fill the bucket or other container with hot water, aim the cup mouth at the hot water, let the steam smoke the glass until it is full of steam, and then wipe it with a clean and dry napkin. When wiping, hold the bottom of the cup with your right hand and put the napkin into the cup until the water vapor in the cup completely disappears and the cup is transparent and bright. After cleaning, take a photo under the light to see if there are any missed stains. After wiping, fingers should not touch the inside or upper part of the glass to avoid leaving traces. When cleaning the glass, be careful not to use too much force to avoid breaking it.

(3) Prepare decorations and juice for wine mixing. Decorations for preparing wine include lemon slices (whole and half slices), pineapple slices, orange wedges, celery stalks, cucumber stalks and enough cherries, olives and roses. When you are ready, wrap it in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator. Next, we should check whether the quality of all fruit juices meets the standards, avoid the waste caused by the deterioration of fruit juices and ensure the quality of finished products.

(4) other work. Check the quality of snacks (such as peanuts), check all kinds of equipment and keep normal operation. As a bartender, you should not only have professional quality and professionalism, but also master a lot of wine knowledge, which plays a vital role in the future production and effective promotion of wine, and is also a prerequisite for becoming an excellent bartender.
