Are there reliable brands that I can buy that would make this easier?

See comment above. Your local olive oil store (if there is one) should have great options. If you're on the east coast, one of those local high-end "Italian" stores may have a knowledgable person who stocks good oils.

Online is always an option :) The Olive Truck Tuscan blend is a personal favorite: https://bestoliveoils.org/search

The owner is this awesome Turkish dude who drives around California in a mobile olive press and makes oil from olives on the spot!
