Essential criteria

The choice of carafe depends on several criteria:

  1. Material: opt for tinted glass or ceramic to protect the oil from light.
  2. Capacity: a small carafe (200 to 500 ml) is ideal for preserving the oil's freshness.
  3. Drip-free spout: essential for clean and precise serving.

A practical detail not to be overlooked: some Italian carafes are hand-blown and can be personalized with a design or name, for a truly unique table. For professionals, rapid oil turnover allows the use of larger formats while maintaining freshness.

Maintenance and daily use

  • Clean your carafe with hot water and dry it thoroughly before each refill.
  • Replace the oil every two to three weeks to ensure optimal taste.
  • Avoid exposing the carafe to heat or sun on the table.

To extend the experience, explore our range of flavored oils and consider offering several carafes to vary the pleasures at the table.
