Hi everyone, I hope yall had a great Christmas and a great new year. I am a bartender at a local bar (pub for those across the pond) and I am trying to come up with a more accurate way of doing my bar inventory. We currently use the point system, which is looking at the bottle and more or less jot down if the bottle is .5 (half the bottle) or .7(for a little more than half) or .2 (about a quarter of a bottle). So the point system is .1, .2, .3, .4, .5, .6 .7, .8, .9 and finally 1 for a full bottle. While this seems to me rather crude, it can give you a good inventory base if the same bartender or manager does the inventory. Everyone sees different point values when it comes to looking at liquor bottles, and then the odd shapped bottles are even stranger. I would like to weigh a used bottle to use the tare weight of the bottle and how many onces it serves so that I can get an accurate count (according to our point system) each time I or someone else takes inventory. For example: I know the tare weight of Absolut Vodka is 25.9 ounces and that is has 33.8 ounces of Vodka when full. I am not sure how to tackle this and I am certain that there is an easy way to get to the answer. I appreciate all of your help, and I think this might lead me to get a promotion so I will greatly appreciate it.
