Drink Pourers & Funnels

Drink Pourers & Funnels in Toronto & Canada

Liquor pourers and funnels are the small fittings that keep liquids under control: a pourer gives a bartender a clean, steady flow from the bottle, and a funnel moves sauces, oils, and syrups into a new container without the mess, so you'll want both when you're setting up a bar or decanting in the kitchen. Winco makes the Measured Pourer in nine colour-coded sizes from 1/2 oz to 2 oz, and the Classic Chrome Fast Flow Pourer comes in a pack of 12 with a chrome spout and breather tube for a quick free pour. The Stainless Steel Jigger measures two pours in one flip-sided tool, while the Plastic Funnel comes in 8, 16, and 32 oz sizes with a hole for hanging. Whether you're outfitting a bar, a pub, or a restaurant kitchen in Toronto, Mississauga, Vaughan, or anywhere else across the GTA and Canada, Phoenix Food Equipment gets drink pourers and funnels to your door.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions we hear from operators.

What is a liquor pourer and how does it work?

A liquor pourer is a spout that fits into the neck of a bottle on a plastic cork, so the liquid comes out in a controlled stream instead of a glug. Free-flow pourers, like the Winco Classic Chrome Fast Flow Pourer, have a breather tube that lets air into the bottle as the liquid flows out, which keeps the pour smooth and fast. Measured pourers work differently, releasing a set amount each time the bottle is tipped. Most bars leave pourers on their well bottles during service, which speeds up drinks and cuts down on spills. If your bartenders are pouring straight from open bottles, pourers are one of the cheapest upgrades you can make.

What do the colours on measured pourers mean?

On a Winco Measured Pourer, each colour is a pour size, so a bartender can see at a glance how much a bottle will release. The sizes are orange for 1/2 oz, black for 5/8 oz, green for 3/4 oz, blue for 7/8 oz, red for 1 oz, purple for 1 1/8 oz, clear for 1 1/4 oz, yellow for 1 1/2 oz, and white for 2 oz. That makes it easy to match a bottle to a recipe and keep pours consistent from one bartender to the next. Winco says measured pourers can reduce liquor costs by up to 30% by preventing over-pouring, and they also work with juice or oils. They're sold individually or in packs of 12.

Should I use a measured pourer or a jigger?

Each has its place. A measured pourer releases a fixed amount, so it's fast and needs little training, which suits straight pours and simple mixed drinks. A jigger measures each pour in a small cup and flips over for a second size, so it suits cocktails where the amounts change from ingredient to ingredient. The Winco Stainless Steel Jigger comes in 1/2 oz and 1 oz, 3/4 oz and 1 1/4 oz, and 1 oz and 1 1/2 oz combinations. Many bars use measured pourers on the well bottles and keep a jigger at each station for cocktail recipes. For more bar tools, see our bar utensils collection.
