[Avodah] Rav Melamed on Metal Pots

[Isaac Balbin via Avodah]

On the issue of Kefeilah and Nosen Taam and bitul there is an interesting
comment from Rav Usher Weiss in his Shaylos and Tshuvos on whisky in
sherry casks (which he permits). He asis where is there a precedent for
Nosen Taam that takes 8-21 years in Shas to occur. He clearly subscribes
to the Halachic mesora based approach of Psak and not chemistry. He
does however also address the issue of those experts who can discern
the taste in blind tests.
