Some kitchen appliances, like water kettles, are never used for chamets. Can they be used on Pesach without undergoing any kashering process?
What about mixers and food processors that you do not use for chamets all year long? Can you use them on Pesach without first kashering them?
In this class we will survey the opinions of the poskim regarding utensils that were not used with chamets during the year.
