For an owner or prospective buyer of a café, restaurant, bar or other hospitality or food service business, an upright glass washer should be considered as an ideal investment to reduce time spent by your staff just to clean glasses. An upright washer can wash a glass in several seconds. They operate by scrubbing both in and out of the glass at the same time using stiff brushes. The size and style of brushes can be customized based on the type of glasses that your restaurant or bar uses and will need to wash. For example there are special brushes for tall glasses, pint glasses, coffee cups and coffee pots. An upright glass washer is usually more effective than a typical automatic dishwasher. This is because the brushes will actually clean the entire glass instead of depending on water pressure to wash the glass. These washers come in several varieties and can usually be installed directly into a sink with no plumbing needed.

The most common type of glass washer will sit directly in the sink. The base and most of the brushes will be under the water, with an electric motor that will be above the water when the sink will be used. An electric cord from the motor will be plugged directly into a grounded wall socket.

Somewhat more expensive are the submersible washers. These can sit directly in the washer as the motor and of electronic components are cased inside of a waterproof box. This can give people more peace of mind, because the motor is better protected around water.

There are also bar top glass washers. These are basically used to rinse and clean a glass without a full washing. Normally only found in bars, these would be used when the customer wants another drink and the glass should be cleaned first. Before use by another customer, any glass would need to be washed by a full glass washer or in a dish washer.

A low cost option is the manual glass washer. These are basically brushes with suction cups on the base. These can be attached in a sink or to a countertop. The glass is then rotated by hand around the brushes to more quickly clean the glasses.

Any of these options will help kitchen staff get more glasses clean in less time. This means that they can focus on other tasks that need to be completed in any busy restaurant or bar. Depending on the volume of chores to be done, you may be able to cut hours and save money just by investing in a small device like a glass washer.
