About

Team:Bar is responsible for the volunteer-run bar.

Current State

Trying to get suppliers to answer emails!

Last EMF the bar ran out early. This time we have over-ordered, with sale-or-return agreements in place with as many suppliers as possible.

Suppliers who have already agreed sale-or-return:

• The Five Points Brewing Co
• Square Root Soda Works

We'd like to offer a greater variety of drinks than we did last time: wine by the glass (served from bag-in-box to avoid creating lots of glass waste) and some basic spirits and mixers are on the list, as well as a selection of soft drinks in addition to Club Mate.

• The Five Points Brewing Co
  • Five Points Pale (4.4%)

Volunteering

We need a lot of help during the event. Volunteers must be over 18 and must be prepared to attend a training briefing before their first volunteer shift.

We will write a guide for volunteers and link to it from this page.

Infrastructure requirements

Network: we need a fixed IP address for the main till, and DHCP server entries for the other diskless tills

We have a portable kitchen sink; we need mains water (15mm pipe), 16A power, and somewhere to put the waste water.

We have been offered a large-screen TV to display the bar menu (which changes regularly, as beers run out and are replaced); this will be connected to a Raspberry running the display board code.

If we can get hold of a reasonable population (8–10) of old Android phones / small tablets we could use them on the handpumps and beer taps instead of cardboard pump clips. They could run an app that fetches information about what's currently on sale from the point of sale software and display's the appropriate logo and price. This app hasn't been written yet... maybe next time!
