==Minimum amount of bread to obligate Netilat Yadayim== | |||
# According to Sephardim, if one ate less than a [[Kezayit]] of bread there’s no obligation to wash, if one ate one [[Kezayit]] one should wash without a Bracha of Al [[Netilat Yadayim]] and if one ate a Kebaytzah (2 Kezaytim) one should wash with a Bracha. <ref>S”A 158:2, Yalkut Yosef 158:4</ref> According to Ashkenazim, preferably one should have a Kebaytzah to wash with a Bracha but if one needs to have a [[Kezayit]] one should wash with a Bracha. If one eats less than a [[Kezayit]] one should wash without a Bracha. <ref>Vezot HaBracha chap 2, pg 13 based on Igrot Moshe 4:44 and Rav Elyashiv</ref> | |||

The same law applies whether the color because something fell in, or because of the container. <Ref> S”A 160:1 writes that the law of waters that changed it’s color is the same whether the color changed on it’s own, because of something falling in, or because of the container. Mishna Brurah 160:2 writes that the Achronim point out that the S”A merely copied the language of the Tur, however, we hold like the Rambam and so it’s permitted. </ref> | # Waters that changed it’s color are unfit for Netilat Yadayim.
