# You don't need to wait 24 hours since the grates need [[#libun]] to be koshered. For a gas stove put a pot on top of the grate so that the fire spreads out and leave it on for a half hour to an hour. For an electric stove you don't need to put a pot on top of it since it'll get hotter evenly so you only need to turn it on for 10-20 minutes.<ref> https://www.torahanytime.com/#/lectures?v=106099 Rav Shmuel Fuerst (min 14)]. The Mishna Brurah 451:34 writes that really the reason that grates need to be koshered is a chumra of chametz since a pot doesn't absorb from another pot without liquids in between. After the fact if someone used grates without kashering them it isn't an issue.</ref> | # You don't need to wait 24 hours since the grates need [[#libun]] to be koshered.
