Question
Hello, I bought instant coffee during the year. Is it permissible for me to keep it for Passover and use it? If not, can I set it aside and continue using it after Passover?
Answer
Hello
Coffee does not contain chametz.
It is customary to ensure it has Passover certification to verify there are no 'absorptions' from production lines that might produce chametz, but this is a remote concern.
Therefore, even according to the custom not to use it on Passover, it does not need to be sold to a non-Jew, and it is permissible to keep it for use after Passover.
