5 Gallon Bag in Box Guide
"How many drinks will I get from one 5 gallon bag in box" is a common question. Although there is not a set number, let’s see how to get a rough estimate of how many drinks you would get from one 5 gallon bag in box.
There are 640 total ounces per each 5 gallon bag in box.
Your soda fountain system will mix water and syrup at a 5 to 1 ratio.
Divide cup size by 5 for number of ounces syrup used per cup. Example for 10 oz. cup: 10 ÷ 5 = 2 There are 2 oz. of syrup used per each 10 oz. cup
Divide ounces of syrup used per cup by 640. Example: 640 ÷ 2 = 320
This is the estimated number of servings per 5 gallon bag in box, not factoring in ice**

**These estimates do not take into account the amount of ice in each cup. More ice per cup would require less syrup, thus more servings per each 5 gallon bag in box.
