Careful olive harvesting, rapid processing and careful pressing of the fruit takes a lot of effort, requires a lot of work and expensive, modern machines. Therefore, you will never find a top-class extra virgin olive oil at a dumping price. Nevertheless, you can also save when buying premium olive oil. At spanish-oil.com, we recommend our heavy users of olive oil to purchase the economical canister. Depending on the manufacturer, you will find many of our high-quality oils in 2.5 or 5 liter canisters.
And frequent consumers are not just restaurateurs who want to offer their guests a unique olive oil with their epicurean delicacies. Buying our excellent olive oil in a can also pays off for private households. After all, anyone who consumes 50 milliliters of high-quality olive oil every day (amount that, according to various studies, helps prevent dementia in old age) has already emptied a 500 milliliter bottle after ten days. In one month the consumption would be 1.5 liters and after two months the 3 liter olive oil canister would be empty.
In a two-person household, the 3-liter canister lasts exactly one month with a daily consumption of 50 milliliters per person. And of course, even with half (25 milliliters, equivalent to about three full tablespoons) the excellent olive oil from spanish-oil.com tastes just as delicious on the last day of the second month as on the first.
It makes sense to opt for a first-class olive oil in a canister, and not just for economic reasons. Made of sturdy sheet metal, the robust canisters are also perfect for shipping and for subsequent storage in the kitchen base cabinet. Even if the oil canister falls over, you don't have to worry about broken pieces or oil spilling out. In addition, its angular shape means that several canisters can be accommodated to save space.
If the canister is empty, it can be discarded as long as you thoroughly remove all oil residue. To do this, use a can opener to remove the lid of the canister and then rinse it thoroughly with detergent and hot water. However, we at spanish-oil.com doubt that you will throw away all your empty oil cans. Because some of our olive oil manufacturers not only produce their high-quality extra virgin olive oil with a lot of love and passion, but can also come up with a spectacular design for the packaging in the canister.
Once you have cleaned the pretty tin canister properly, it can be wonderfully upcycled into an extravagant flower vase. You can also use the chic, cleaned tin canisters as plant pots for kitchen herbs. And if you need to send a homemade gift, the recycled olive oil can is always better, safer and prettier than a cardboard box.
Because all tin cans that you purchase from us are coated on the inside with a special, of course, food-safe resin layer, you can be sure that the valuable olive oil will not come into contact with the metal. Even when stored for a long time, the high-quality oil from spanish-oil.com is in good hands in the metal canister. Impermeable to light and oxygen, you can easily store our excellent oils in the sealed canister for up to 24 months (see manufacturer information). However, in order to avoid any loss of quality, you should store the oil canisters in a place that is as cool as possible. The pantry, the cellar or a kitchen base cabinet are suitable.
Once you have opened the canister, you should use the high-quality olive oil within three months. Because each addition of oxygen fades a tiny nuance from the wonderful aromas of a premium olive oil, you should not open the canister unnecessarily often. For daily use, fill 500 milliliters into a dark glass bottle. In this way, our unique olive oils not only stay fresh, healthy and tasty for a long time, but also make pouring easier.
