Beer Dumps
A beer dump (or bottle dump) is a small refrigerated bin-style unit that holds bottled beer at pouring temperature, positioned directly under the bar for fast staff access during busy service in pubs and bars.
Key specifications
Capacities generally range from 50-450 litres gross, with compact external footprints designed to slot under a counter or bar gun station. Running at +2 to +6°C on a standard 13A socket, beer dumps typically use R600a refrigerant, operate quietly at around 40-50dB, and feature a simple open-top or hinged-lid design rather than shelving, since bottles are dropped in loose. Warranty is usually 1-2 years.

Beer Dumps — FAQs
What is a beer dump used for?
It’s a fast-access chiller for loose bottled beer, letting bar staff grab a cold bottle in seconds without opening a full-size fridge door mid-service.
How is a beer dump different from a bottle cooler?
Beer dumps have no shelving and an open or lift-lid top for speed, whereas bottle coolers use shelving and hinged or sliding doors for organised storage.
Brands typically found in this niche include Infrico and Tefcold, with Williams and Polar also represented, well suited to high-turnover pub and bar service points.
