Ethyl was designed from the ground up, breaking up the building blocks of food and drinks into their most basic components.
This means entering basic information once, and being able to call it up and reference it easily in future. It also means scaling and batching items with no need for human error.
Tell me more"Rather than each staff member performing their own calculations, Ethyl makes life more efficient by doing the work for them. For example if you have a batch drink that needs making, the staff can input the item they have, and then Ethyl will instantly show the amounts for the other ingredients."
The same goes for dishes and dish components, if the chefs are making an element but need to scale the recipe, Ethyl can do that immediately without human error.
Tell me moreEverything about Ethyl is designed to show teams how drinks are built from a profit perspective, and how to price items accordingly
For full menu development Ethyl also has a function to show the average Gross Profit across an entire menu, so you can adjust items to deal with higher or lower profit items.
