Is there any reason for there to be a difference in the standard for hand shemurah or machine, given the current process for both? It’s interesting that people are fine with the machine ( those who eat non - chaburah machine shemurah) but have a problem when the same standard is applied to hand.
There is basis for that in halacha. The chamimus al yidei eisek is described by some poskim as coming from the body heat of the hands. This would happen when hand kneading but not with a machine.
im looking to order midal ha'emek matza in Israel (to be delivered in Israel) . Can anyone help me with a contact?
Just paid $36 a pound
Company ?
Lakewood.With a Chaburah. שיטת הרא"ש
$36 for רא"ש I think is considered cheap.
$34 Rosh Chaburah KJ.Best operation I've seen. And the one who organizis the Chaburah gives the bakeries a run for their money....
I wish I had that by me, these workers just sat there wasting time. (making me nervous on רא"ש too) we threw out on average more then a full batch per 18 minute count.
ouch...by us we have someone by the tables turning the paper between matzas to ensure that the bits stuck to the paper are not on the next matzah. He also insisted that the lady dividing the matza should be oisek with her other hand while dividing the dough. Someone else insisted that the mixer (which was me for a bit) wash his hands between every batch-not just every 18 min. (A bit overboard imho)
The reason they were lazy by me, probably was because they had group like yours just before
I think it has to with the bakery
Agree, although I had a better experience previously. I literally was telling the boss every couple of minutes about the workers just stopping and schmoozing, for way too long. Definitely got nothing close to my money's worth.
I fully agree that the tumult they made there was a choshen mishpat question and not orach chaim.
Again, I am not talking about a teviah in bais din. At what point did they realize? Would they have been able to arrange to go elsewhere at that point in the season? As a practical matter they would have been backed into a corner at that point. They did not walk away feeling that they got what they paid for and quite understandably so.
