# A Keurig machine according to many poskim does not require tevila. It is preferable to sell it to a non-Jew and borrow it back to avoid any issue.<ref>[https://oukosher.org/halacha-yomis/does-a-keurig-coffee-maker-require-tevila/ OU Halacha Yomi] explains that Rav Schachter holds a keurig machine doesn't require tevila because it would break if it were to be toveled. Rav Belsky holds that there are other reasons to exempt it from tevila but it is better to sell it to a non-Jew to avoid any issue.</ref> | |||
