When is a new Bracha Rishona required?
- As long as one didn’t have a interruption in one's train of thought (Hesech Hadaat), which will be clarified below, one doesn’t need to make a new Bracha Rishona. However, if one made a Bracha Achrona, and one wants to eat again a new Bracha Rishona is needed. [1]
- If one if planning on having coffee or tea for a length of time as one sits and learns, one Shehakol covers all the cups one drinks even there’s a long break between cups. [2]
- If one made a Bracha Rishona and waited 72 minutes one doesn’t need to make another Bracha Rishona. [3]
- If one made a Bracha Achrona only because one was afraid that Shuir Ikul would pass and one has intent to continue eating afterwards, one doesn’t need a new Bracha Rishona when one continues to eat. [4]
- One who went to the bathroom in the middle of a snack need not recite a new bracha upon returning. [5]
Interruption of a Bread Meal
- If one Davened in middle of a meal it’s not considered an interruption. [6]
- Sleeping in middle of a meal isn’t considered an interruption except that one needs to wash Netilat Yadayim. [7]
- During a meal, if one touches areas of one's body which are supposed to be covered, one should wash Netilat Yadayim without a Bracha. [8]
- Someone who went to the bathroom during a meal isn’t considered an interruption rather one should just make Netilat Yadayim and Asher Yatzer afterwards. [9]
- If one said Shir HaMaalot it is not considered an interruption of the meal. [10]

- ↑ Tosfot Pesachim 102a s.v. vaakru proves from the gemara that if a party left the house to daven it isn't considered an interruption of a meal that davening in the middle of a meal isn't considered an interruption at all. Even though one can't eat while one is davening, nonetheless, it isn't an interruption. Yalkut Yosef (vol 3 pg 228) codifies this.
