Translation:Shulchan Aruch/Yoreh Deah/137

Constains six Seif.

All vessels that are prohibited due to wine of a non-Jew that a Jew poured into them before they were made kosher are forbidden for drinking but permitted for benefit, even if the wine is dry, as long as twelve months have not passed. (And if it is a vessel that is used for permanence, it is forbidden immediately) (Tur in the name of the Rosh).

And if it is a vessel that is not used for permanence (and it is dry) (B”Y), it is not prohibited unless the wine of a Jew stood in it for twenty-four hours.

And if there was a jug of water mixed with the wine, if there is in the water six times the amount against the shell of the jug — it is permitted even for drinking.

Rema: And see above Siman 134 that even if there is no water, it is nullified in sixty, and there is no distinction between vessels prohibited due to wine of a non-Jew whether they are new or not (Tur and the response of the Rosh and the R”F at the end of Avodah Zarah).

If grapes were trodden in a winepress of a non-Jew that was not made kosher, it is permitted since the seeds and skins contain sixty against the shell of the winepress, but it is forbidden to draw the wine through a hole that the wine of a non-Jew flows through, as the hole is prohibited and the wine that comes out of it is clear without the mixture of the seeds.

Rema: And if he went and drew it through the hole, it seems according to what we hold that the wine of a non-Jew is nullified in sixty as above Siman 134, that here too all the wine is permitted, and we do not say that the first is prohibited. And see above Siman 99.

Wine that was placed in jugs of a non-Jew that were not made kosher, and then he poured out that wine and mixed it with a larger quantity of wine that he had in other kosher jugs, if the second wine has sixty against the first wine, all is permitted even for drinking. And if the second wine has water to the measure of six parts against the shell of the prohibited, it is also permitted, all for drinking, even though there was no water in the first wine.

Vessels that are prohibited due to wine of a non-Jew may be filled with either water, beer, or other liquids, provided that they are first rinsed from the moisture of the wine on the surface of the vessels, and it is also permitted to salt with them.

If he placed wine in a prohibited vessel, he is not permitted to place wine in it again until he makes it kosher.

A non-Jew is not trusted to declare the kosher status of prohibited vessels (and see above Siman 122 how to act).
