Coffee made by a Goy on Shabbat for Other Goyim

Coffee made by a Goy on Shabbat for Other Goyim
Day: Wednesday
Date: May 6, 2015
Parshat: Emor
Yalkut Yosef: 325


Coffee made by a goy for other goyim on Shabbat may be consumed if there were no Jews there when the coffee was made. If there were Jews around when the coffee was made one has to be concerned that the goy may have made extra for the Jew. Therefore such coffee may not be consumed. An example would be a person staying in a hotel for Shabbat. If he came down to the lobby and there was coffee already ready, it is permissible to partake of the coffee. If the coffee is only still being made, he may not partake of it.
