May a vessel be placed beneath dripping must (tirmosh) from unpressed grapes on Shabbat?
Synopsis
Must dripping from unpressed grapes is forbidden as muktzeh, so placing a vessel beneath it renders the vessel a base for a forbidden object (bitul kli me-heikhano). The solution is to first create a 'graf shel rei' situation using a bed or table.
