The Geek Guide to Kosher Machines
Rajiv writes in to share that Wired Magazine’s current issue (Volume 12, Issue 11) “has an article on an engineer working for the
Star-K [Jonah Ottensoser] and how he works to certify appliances.”
It’s a good article (by Michael Erard), though he liberally uses superfluous godspeak: “… certifying that the movement of every electron in an appliance is sanctioned by God.”
If you’re interested in learning more, Ottensoser has an article published on the Star-K website about the “Sabbath Mode.” The Star-K also has detailed information about Sabbath-sensitive appliances, including purchasing advice.
