User facing features:

- UI consistency improvements: General improvements. Green buttons indicate that some action will occur when pressing this button!
- Minor UI tweaks and layout improvements
- Improved Shots UI, including allowing users to switch between cocktail and shot mode
- Improved trending drinks menu, giving a view of the last 12 hours, 3 days, 1 week and all time. Drinks are now clickable links to allow users to examine the drinks on the drink screen.
- For dispensing small amounts of liquids, turn the pumps slower for more accurate dispensing
Admin facing features:
- Bartendro logo goes to admin screen
- Taster button on drink designer -- this is really handy for making new drink recipes.
- Improved clean cycle that runs all pumps for 15 seconds. Bartendro 15 can clean the pumps on the left side indepdenently from the pumps on the right side.
