How to Use a Spout for Pouring and Drizzling

Learn how to use the Great Jones Spout for precise pouring and drizzling of olive oil and more. Get tips on handling, care, and choosing your color.

Why a Dedicated Spout Makes Sense

If you often reach for olive oil, vinegar, or other pourable ingredients while cooking, a dedicated spout saves time and reduces mess. The Great Jones Spout is designed to sit on your countertop or dining table, ready for everyday use and dinner parties alike. Its oversized handle makes it easy to grab, and the long, precise spout combined with a breather valve on the lid gives you control over the flow.

Spout at a Glance

  • Spout: Spout holds 19 fluid ounces and comes in two joyful colors: Broccoli and Blueberry. The 19-ounce capacity is enough for a standard bottle of olive oil or vinegar, so you can transfer the whole bottle without refilling often. Two color options let you match your kitchen or dining decor.

  • Spout: Spout is dishwasher-safe and made of colorful glass that is handmade, so natural variation in finish and shape is normal. Dishwasher-safe means easy cleanup after oily use. The handmade nature explains why each Spout may have slight differences — that is part of its character, not a defect.

How to Use Spout for Pouring and Drizzling

Using Spout is straightforward, but a few techniques help you get the most out of its precision design.

  1. Fill and secure the lid: Pour your oil, vinegar, or other liquid into the glass body. The lid includes a breather valve that regulates airflow for a steady pour. Make sure the lid is on firmly before tipping.
  2. Grip the oversized handle: The handle is intentionally large so you can hold it comfortably even with wet or greasy hands. This makes it easy to control the angle and speed of your pour.
  3. Use the long spout for precision: The long, narrow spout directs the liquid exactly where you want it — over a salad, into a pan, or onto a plate. The breather valve helps prevent glugging, so you can drizzle a thin stream or pour a steady flow.
  4. Store on counter or dining table: Spout is designed to look handsome on your countertop or dining table. Keep it within easy reach for daily cooking or entertaining. The colorful glass adds a decorative touch.

Care and Cleaning Tips

Spout is dishwasher-safe, which makes cleanup after oily use simple. However, because it is handmade glass, avoid sudden temperature changes (like placing a hot spout under cold water) to prevent thermal shock. Hand washing is also fine if you prefer. The natural variation in finish and shape is a sign of craftsmanship, not a flaw.

Choosing Your Color

Spout comes in Broccoli (a green hue) and Blueberry (a blue hue). Both are designed to complement a variety of kitchen styles. Pick the one that fits your countertop or dining table best — or get both for different oils.
