Koshering a Food Processor for Passover

Question

Is it possible to kosher a food processor for Passover? Food processor by Braun, model 3010.

Answer

Hello,

The instruction is that plastic which has absorbed chametz cannot be koshered for Passover.

Therefore, if a food processor was used with chametz foods — either for hot food [above approximately 42°C], or for sharp foods, or if food remained in it for 24 hours — it cannot be koshered for Passover.
