Storing:
Do not put cutlery into glasses.
Do not stack glasses that have not been designed to stack.
Using:
Do not pick up glasses in clusters.
Be careful to avoid contact with the beer tap.
Do not put cold liquids into hot or warm glasses
straight from the dishwasher as this can cause cracks.
Pre-heat glasses for hot drinks by running them under
the hot tap.
Washing:
Utopia’s products are specially designed to withstand the
rigours of the Foodservice and Hospitality trade, including
automatic glass washers found widely in most businesses.
To ensure the quality level of the product it is important to
take note of the f
ollowing:
Always wash new glasses before use.
Always use a non-caustic detergent as caustic detergents
af fect head retention, etch the glass and give the glass a
shadowy tinge.
Water on the premises should be stored at 60°C. If water is
stored at a higher temperature e.g. 85°C, even when this is
reduced because of travelling to the machine, it could still be
high enough to bake debris onto the glass.
Cof fee cups should never be washed in a glass washing
machine, as cof fee dregs can taint the water and stain the
glasses – this also applies to drinks that contain cream.
If cracks or chips are found in glasses, they should be
discarded immediately and never put in the dishwasher.
Gold decorated glassware is suitable for handwash only.
