YARRAMATE Olive Oil Sprayer Review: Glass Oil Dispenser Tested

Aerosol cooking sprays are convenient, but they’re expensive, contain propellants, and you can’t control what oil you’re using. Enter the YARRAMATE 16oz Glass Olive Oil Sprayer — a refillable solution that promises fine-mist oil distribution without the chemicals. We tested one to see if it delivers.

Design & Build Quality

The YARRAMATE sprayer comes as a 2-in-1 kit: a 16oz glass bottle with a black spray nozzle, plus included labels and a small funnel for filling. The glass bottle feels substantial — thicker than a wine bottle — and the spray mechanism is metal where it counts, not cheap plastic.

The bottle’s wide mouth makes filling easy, and the included funnel means you won’t dribble oil down the side. The labels add a nice touch for identifying contents if you keep multiple oils.

Spray Performance

Here’s the key question: does it actually spray? Yes — when filled with standard olive or vegetable oil, the trigger produces a fine, even mist that covers a pan nicely. One or two pumps is enough to coat a non-stick skillet for eggs or sautéing.

We tested with extra virgin olive oil, regular olive oil, avocado oil, and vegetable oil. The lighter oils sprayed consistently. The EVOO produced a slightly coarser spray due to natural sediment, but it still worked well.

For BBQ and grilling, the sprayer is excellent for applying oil to grates without the flare-ups caused by pouring oil directly.

Cleaning & Maintenance

The manual recommends hand washing, and we agree — this isn’t a dishwasher item. The nozzle can be disassembled for cleaning, which is essential because oil residue will eventually clog it. A warm water and mild soap rinse after each refill keeps it running smoothly.

A common complaint across similar products is nozzle clogging over time. We experienced this after about two months with thicker oils. A soak in warm, soapy water and a rinse cleared it.

Value

At $11, the YARRAMATE pays for itself compared to aerosol sprays. A single can of cooking spray costs $4-5 and lasts maybe two weeks. This bottle delivers months of use from a single $5 bottle of olive oil.

Final Verdict

For anyone who cooks regularly and wants to ditch aerosol sprays, the YARRAMATE Olive Oil Sprayer is a solid choice. The glass build is quality, the spray performance is good, and the savings add up quickly. Just keep the nozzle clean.

Score: 4.4/5 — A smart, affordable upgrade from aerosol sprays. Worth it for portion control alone.
