Quick Answer

Use a refill funnel to pour olive oil from the tin into a bottle cleanly and without waste. Place the funnel securely in the bottle neck, pour slowly, and wipe down after each use.

Why a Funnel Makes Refilling Easier

Refilling a small bottle from a large tin can get messy. A funnel directs the oil straight into the opening, reducing spills and keeping your counter clean.

The Kosterina Refill Funnel is designed for this exact task. Its simple, functional shape fits standard bottle necks, making the transfer quick and efficient.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

One common mistake is pouring too fast, which can cause the funnel to overflow. Another is not holding the funnel steady, leading to oil running down the side of the bottle.

Always check that the funnel is clean and dry before use. Residual moisture can affect the oil quality over time.

Step-by-Step Refilling Guide

  1. Prepare Your Bottle: Ensure the bottle is clean and completely dry. Remove any cap or lid so the neck is open and accessible. A dry bottle prevents moisture from mixing with the oil.
  2. Position the Funnel: Place the Refill Funnel firmly into the bottle neck. Hold it with one hand to keep it steady during pouring. A secure fit prevents wobbling and spills.
  3. Pour Slowly: Pour the olive oil from the tin into the funnel in a slow, steady stream. Avoid overfilling the funnel; stop and let the oil drain if needed. Patience here prevents overflow and waste.
  4. Remove and Clean: Once the bottle is filled, carefully lift the funnel straight up to avoid drips. Wipe the funnel and bottle neck with a clean cloth. Cleaning immediately keeps the funnel ready for next use.
  5. Seal and Store: Cap the bottle tightly and store it in a cool, dark place, away from heat and sunlight, to preserve freshness. Proper storage extends the oil's shelf life.
