Question

Is it possible to kasher an Anova quartz countertop?
Thank you very much

Answer

Shalom u’vracha 

From a halachic perspective – this is permitted if it is possible to pour boiling water over the surface of the countertop. And if there is concern that the water may damage the countertop, you may clean it thoroughly and use it without pouring boiling water. 

Practically – you should check with the manufacturer whether it is permitted to pour boiling water without concern for damage to the countertop. 

And if there is concern of damage, you should clean it without pouring.
