so i just had my second day of training as a bartender at an awesome place in town. the guy training me told me to pour at the sound of a euro police siren, and I got it... kinda. Tomorrow is my first dinner shift so I watched some "siren vids" THEN FOUND THIS?? i feel like I am in a simulation or some shit. thanks for the vid, WEEEOOOOWEEEEEOOOOO
Legit liked for the "free pouring" intro 😂😂😂
Perfect cadence trick. Everyone can audibly picture that siren.
I laugh like a crazy with the costumer part 😂
Sing more Dave, give the people what they want
Haha! I believe that would be highly unlikely: that people would want more of my singing, but at your request, I'll keep belting them out.
I did this before. The count of pouring. Very helpful.
Love your attitude and sense of humor
Love it!!😂❤️
great video Dave. you give me great confidence that someday I'll learn to pour (and sing) just like you !
Haha...Let's stick to the pouring Tim. We don't need anyone else out there singing like me and torturing the world.
Just bought the course 2 days before the deadline and I can't believe how much useful information is being thrown into my face. I also just purchased a bartender's kit from amazon so I'll be able to hands on techniques at home while learning. Unlikely that I'll be able to bring home any actual alcohol since I come from a staunchly anti-that family but using empty ones with water is the next best thing.
That's awesome Roto...I have to know though: what exactly is an "anti-that family"?
@@DaveAllredTheRealBarman he means anti alcohol.
Loved it! Keep going!
Ha... Brings back memories. I worked for concerts and festivals. They used this box before a shift. Not all the time but occasionally.
Great vid great find
4:19 the pour starts
The police car cadence is interesting, never heard that before.
Practice it folks - once you've got it, you've got it!
When I was trained to pour, we'd be tested in quarter-ounces. To be allowed on the bar, you had to be able to do 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1 1/4, 1 1/2 and 2.
That was in 1996; I haven't worked a free-pour bar since about 2000...maybe 2001? But I can still do it, bang on the money.
Thank you!
Thanx a lot for doing this video
😂😂 you crack me up with that crapy pouring for a quarter tip 😂😂
Seriously man, you are one of the coolest people I’ve found on the internet and you make me super excited to be learning to bartending you’ve got just my sense of humor and I mean it honestly when I say I wish I could be learning from you personally
Also you’re tips on how to grip the bottle and cut the flow of liquor literally perfect for beginners thank you so much
Hey thanks Colby, I appreciate that. Love your enthusiasm and drive. Keep plowing forward and keep learning and you'll get there.
Great method
I know this was made 3 years ago but omg this is so accurate and helped a lot my first try first test everything! Tysm!
Super informative, gained a new subscriber! 🤙🏽
Right on! Great to have you here. Love the name: TheRealTraigKG. We might be long lost cousins.
Loving these vids
Can anyone recommend on Amazon good pour spouts? Some I’ve bought are way too fast and let too much out for this cadence thanks guys!
I am well aware of those "certain clientele" people , lol Love the ambulance siren pour system !
Hello Dave how are you doing? I hope you are well and keep doing what you do very nice sharing information about bartender knowledge. I Have a question, the thing is. Before start to work I do a poor test from quarter to 2 onz.
And the manager wants all the measurements 100 %perfect other way hes not happy. It's is possible get 100% acuarency every time?.
And can be acceptable if from quarter to 2 onz I do some pouring between dead line and straigh line.
I will appreciate your answer 👍...
Thanks
I have my free pouring test today in work thank you !!
I have one week to learn this to nail my trail week at HRC! Thanks for this video :D
your comment says 1 week ago so i hope you passed
cool channel dude
You are awesome !
No, you're awesome. I just put up the illusion of awesomeness. :-)
awzome brother thanks
Dave, you are awesome! Quick question: What do you mean by cadence at 4:47? Is it a reference to the speed of the pour, depending on the various quantity of liquid in the bottle?
Thanks for the kind words Lyubomir. Yes, you are correct, the cadence I'm speaking of is basically the rate you are counting compared to the rate that the liquid is coming out of the pour spout. You need to match your cadence with the correct timing so that your pours are accurate. Hope that helps.

😂😂sure wished I had a bartender like you ! Want to move to Georgia ? I'm food and beverage manager , and you already have a job !! 😁
I felt amateur because I always used Patricks police siren from Spongebob "Wee Woo Wee Woo". Glad to know someone with as much experience as you does the same
Hey, I'm down for the Patrick police siren technique. I love Patrick.
Ur halirious love it 😍
Just a really bad singer...
Dream to open a themed bar but there’ll be a lot of mixed drinks
Sir you are so funny 🤣
I wonder what happened to that glass of vodka during the cut 😁
i like this guy
that damn song is in my head
Thanks Daniel, I like you too.
Feet. Pour me
I'm interested
I'd also underpour for a client who's too drunk to stand up properly, or even just give mocktails to a customer who's too drunk to tell the difference.
Not sure about what it is like in other places in the world. But in the UK, giving someone a mocktail when they've paid for an alcoholic beverage goes against trade acts.... best thing to do is kick them out :P
I just started my training and the bar I work for want 1 1/4 ounce for mixed drinks. Thoughts?
5 count pours...count til 5
Treat your air bubbles like stoppage time in soccer games. The clock doesn't stop, so whatever time is wasted by injuries/penalties, etc. is made up at the end of the game. Air bubble during one ambulance beep? Go one more at the end
"Bubble-two-three-four" (saying "bubble" takes longer and accounts for the air).
Great count pour
Dave, can I shake two, say Cosmo, martinis in one shaker? Will they fit?
Yes, when it comes to martinis, you can actually fit three in there.
You are a fucking legend.
I'm free pouring !!
Sigh, none of these videos I have perused mention the one difficulty you are bound to run into. They all seem to come under the assumption that all metal pour spouts are the same. But, for example, if you work in a bar with a mixture of tapered and un-tapered pour spouts... You are likely to get frustrated quickly or unknowingly poor inaccurately a lot of the time. I wish the tapered vs non-tapered spout difference would be addressed more often.
This is true Justin, and there is no way around it if the bar chooses to have a mixture of different types of pour spouts, which is not very smart if they want consistency in their pours. The point of practicing freepouring is to determine how long it takes to pour the desired amount. Some pour spouts might be a longer count because they pour slow and others might be a shorter count because they pour fast. It's up to the bartender to practice and get a feel for portion size based on the flow of the liquor. The more you do it, the better you get at it. It's also up to the bar manager to put unified pour spouts behind the bar, if they care at all about drink consistency and liquor control. Cheers.
Hey Dave real question what if it's 1/3 oz?
You're going to have to do it half way between 0 and 1/2 Vivian. That's pretty precise though. Haven't seen many recipes calling for 1/3 of an oz.
@@DaveAllredTheRealBarman thanks Dave. I saw that measurement for a couple recipes for some extreme cocktail mixing, where the drinks get really fruity I guess
Vivian Fox with many cocktails you don’t have to be precise from when you make them at home, but if you work at a bar that’s just cruel. Also I’m curious what cocktail were you making that had that measurement
JOHNNNN CENA!!!
this is how i learn drinks. whenever i'm training somewhere new i have to be THAT person and tell them don't tell me an oz of this or an oz of that. tell me the counts: 2 counts this 4 counts that etc. and i'll remember it. tell me the oz and its gone from my memory as soon as it entered.
All you have to remember is that every count is a quarter of an oz. So if they say 1 oz just do a 4 count. Easy
Thats all good but the grip on the bottle aint good for ya wrist.
I was taught 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand etc.
Yep, that works. In fact, any count works as long as you align it with the speed of your pour so that you can accurately pour the correct amount. That's why the pour tester is so cool because you can speed up or slow down your count based on the result of your practiced pours.
Rule number one under pour terrible clients lolololol
Hey Dave I have a stupid question. Are all pourers usually the same? As in flow rate
Hey James, not stupid at all. In fact, it's a great question. The most common pourers I see are the longer metal pourers like I have in the video and I do like these a lot for the most consistent pours. They do get a bit blocked up with liqueurs and cordials and need to be run through the dishwasher. There are many other types of pourers, including hard plastic and soft plastic ones that aren't as consistent in my opinion. The way to make sure your count is accurate is to practice with whatever pourers are at your bar until you get it right. If the bar has a variety of pourers, I would recommend to the owner to get them all the same so the pours are consistent, not only for overpours, but so the drinks taste the same every time. Hope that helps.
Different model pourers have different flow rates by design. They’re rates should be listed in the details/specs section when ordering them online.
This was 2 years ago so i can totally confirm they do NOT say boss anymore
This guy kinda sounds like Vin Diesel
I was thought 1and2and3and4.....
Practice with 750ml or liter?
was that free falling by john mayer? or am I just drunk?
So disappointed in you Jose. You must be drunk. That's Tom Petty baby! Although I will say my voice sounds much better when you're drunk, so keep up the good work.
Bruh. Tom Petty all day
You look like comedian Todd Barry’s younger, more handsome brother.
Don't know who that is, but I do appreciate the "more handsome" description as opposed to nauseatingly grotesque. Cheers.
It’s called a jigger lol, takes literally 2 extra seconds and your pours are exact every time.
Yep, you've got a good point Marksman. I actually agree with you, but most places free pour so I want to make sure everyone is well trained.
In the UK free pouring is pretty much banned we have to use a measure. My boss can free pour accurately and i wanna get to learn so I'd be able to do this job outside England
Id still rather learn to freeppur than rely on a jigger lol
Bfc bfcbfc you can free pour in a lot of places in England if you are trained correctly. I work in a restaurant where everyone free pours
There are benefits to both
Certain things you want to be sure you have a precise amount, but if you need to adjust freepour makes that easier
I try to free pour but if it's high volume a jigger can help make sure you don't make mistakes especially if you're newer
😂😂😂
I was teach that for the bubble problem you should start counting saying
BUBBLE
Instead of ONE
So you swow down a little bit
I was taught that a long time ago too Saro. Problem with that is sometimes there's an air bubble and sometimes there isn't, so it's not really a fool-proof technique.
@@DaveAllredTheRealBarman hi man, thanks for the answer!
Yes they said me to be aware of that at the beginning and at the end of the bottle...
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha, round here, they don't do that cut aggressively crap. They just turn it, so for that, I dislike that video to keep the knowledge in town.
Yo, what's an ounce lads? I need like 25ml,50ml setups...
1 oz. = about 29.5 ml
Stop trying to be funny and teach me something
...said the self-centered, joyless boy.
Dave Allred TheRealBarman true I am pretty joyless
