Bulk SyrupThe Bulk Syrup program includes the bulk CO2 system and the bulk system for Coca-Cola®. Both systems are permanently installed inside the restaurant and become an integral part of the beverage system. The tanks are refilled from outside the restaurant without entering the stores or interrupting operations. The bulk syrup program is a convenient and safe way to improve profits, safety and quality in a restaurant operation.

Common Uses:

• Fast Food
• Convenience Stores
• Restaurants
• Concession Stands

The Bulk Syrup system consists of two or more bulk syrup tanks permanently installed inside the restaurant. Each tank holds 75 gallons (300 liters for the international system) of Coca-Cola® syrup and replaces bag-in-a-box and other syrup packages. Syrup is withdrawn from one syrup tank at a time and fed to the beverage machines upon demand. When one tank is completely empty, the system switches to the next full tank. The empty tank is sanitized by the automated Clean-in-place panel and ready for its next delivery of Coca-Cola®. Filling the syrup tank from the truck takes less than ten minutes and is part of the store’s regular delivery service.

This system is also available in a portable model for restaurants in which tanks must be moved to receive syrup delivery. Domestic and international models are available to meet the needs of different countries.

* McBulk Syrup is available in domestic and international models as stationary or portable designs.
** The specifications shown for the McDonald's bulk CO2 tanks are based on ASME Boiler and Pressure
Vessel Design Code, Section VIII, Division I. Most countries require compliance by law with one or more pressure vessel codes.
Chart manufactures bulk CO2 vessels which comply with many of the most widely recognized codes.
*** Peak drinks are based on calculations established in the "McDonald's Beverage Workbook Equipment Section" and 14 day CO2 delivery cycle.
