This looks like the ticket, if I can find the receipt I am cleaning up my 16 qt square one and returning it, and getting this round one that is linked here.

Has a good spout to.pour back in the bottles for recycling

Has a "reverse" lip around the top so that oil that is moving fast when it hits the edge will get trapped.
