Glass utensils must be <em>toiveled<\/em> as well, based on a rabbinic requirement. If one purchased used utensils, they must first be kashered before <em>toiveling<\/em>. However, if one borrows or rents utensils from a non-Jew, there is no mitzvah of tevilas keilim. Before immersing, the utensils must be completely clean; all labels and even residual glue from the labels must be removed. Prior to <em>tevilah<\/em>, a <em>beracha<\/em> is recited.<\/p>\n<p>Most regular items can be immersed without ruining them. For certain electronic items the water should be shaken out, and one can use a blow dryer to dry the inside or it should be left to dry for three days. If the item has a digital panel and one is scared that it will get ruined, he should gift it to a non-Jew who will lift it up and take possession of it. Afterwards, he can borrow it back from the non-Jew.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oukosher.org\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Tevilla-Chart-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-post-10228 wp-image-79485\" src=\"https:\/\/oukosher.org\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Tevilla-Chart-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"715\" height=\"1134\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/oukosher.org\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Tevilla-Chart-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-post-10228 wp-image-79486\" src=\"https:\/\/oukosher.org\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/Tevilla-Chart-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"715\" height=\"761\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Food utensils acquired from a non-Jew and made from gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, or lead, must be toiveled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":79698,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_cloudinary_featured_overwrite":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10228","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-articles"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.9.1 -
