# It’s permissible to place a pot of solid food on top of another pot which is on a fire as long as the food is fully cooked. If the food is liquid, it must be fully cooked, and according to Sephardim, the liquid must be Yad Soldet Bo, however, according to Ashkenazim, the liquid must be warm (and not cold). <Ref>S”A 318:7 brings a dispute whether one may place a pot with hot liquids which are Yad Soldet Bo on top of a pot that’s on the fire. S”A 318:8 quotes the same dispute regarding solids except that the food doesn’t need to be hot and even if the food can reach the temperature of Yad Soldet Bo. S”A rules that for both the previous issues the halacha is like the lenient opinion. So rule the achronim including Gra 318:7, Eliyah Rabba 318:21, Mishna Brurah 318:60, Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 1:36, and Yalkut Yosef (Shabbat vol 3 pg 207). Even though 318:7 writes that liquids must be as hot as Yad Soldet Bo, Rama 318:15 argues that even if it’s just slightly warm it’s permissible. So rules Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 1:36. [However, Chazon Ish 37 writes that an empty pot isn’t considered a separation between the pot of food and the fire. So holds Sh”t Az Nidbaru 3:14 and Shabbat Kitchen (Rabbi Simcha Bunim Kohen; pg 42) that the bottom pot must be filled with food. However, Sh”t Shevet HaLevi 1:91 defends the minhag.] </ref>

# It’s forbidden to place a pot on top of another pot where the top pot contains food with containing large quantities of congealed fat. However, if there’s only a little congealed fat such that when melted it mixes with the rest of the food it’s permissible. If fat was dissolved it may be eaten. It’s also permitted to dissolve a sauce that is normally eaten in it’s congealed state such as fish sauce. <Ref> Shemirat Shabbat KeHilchata 1:37 </ref>

==Hot tap water==
# Turning on the hot tape water is prohibited on Shabbat. <ref>The 39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat, vol 2 pg 639) </ref> It’s forbidden to use the hot water even if one turns off the hot water heater before Shabbat. <ref> The 39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat, vol 2 pg 640) </ref>
# In cases of extreme need there may be a basis for permitting using hot tap water, however, a Rav must be consulted before using this leniency. <Ref> The 39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat, vol 2 pg 640) </ref>
# One may leave on a hot water faucet from before Shabbat. One may not turn off a hot water tap if the tap has been running to the point that the water in the boiler is colder than Yad Soldet Bo (after 15-20 minutes), however if the faucet has only been running for a short time or it’s only open slightly and the water is still Yad Soldet Bo, then it’s permissible it turn it off. <Ref> The 39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat, vol 2 pg 640-1) </ref>
# Even when it’s permissible to turn on the hot water tap or if one left on the hot water tap from before Shabbat other issues including:
* make sure that one does not use the hot and cold water at the same time in one faucet and
* make sure one doesn’t pour directly onto moist or wet dishes rather one should fill a basin and then put in one’s wet dishes or preferably pour the hot water into a container and from there into a basin and then put inside it the wet dishes. <Ref> The 39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat, vol 2 pg 640-1) </ref>
