How do you toivel a "Little Dipper" that comes with a crockpot? Do you at all?

-There isn't an insert to remove like in a typical crockpot and it says cannot be immersed in water (since it obviously plugs directly into the wall)
Thanks! Very Happy

Well how would you clean it after using it?

I don't toivel ceramic but I would toivel the cover if it were glass

Good question. I didn't think of the cleaning part yet. The cover is plastic not glass or ceramic. Thanks.
This is what the instructions say...

Stick the whole thing into the Mikva just like you would with a sandwich maker then leave it to dry a few days before you use it.

Interesting question. I've heard these things do require Tevilla but I haven't dunked anything like that. My crock pot did come with a little dipper but never had a use for it. It seems weird to me to toviel something that will break or become unsafe if immersed. I guess I will ask a rav if the situation arises.

I have done it too ... maybe not in its entirety but almost completely .Most appliances you can dip upside down and stop at the part where the electrical connection is . This way the surfaces that touch the food get wet without submerging the plug . Obviously should it no longer work you void the warantee but as far as safety is concerned to be safe I wait a day or two until it dries and I would only plug it into a gfi outlet that would turn off should there still be any water . I have done it with sandwich makers ..... electrical kettles .... etc....

Its not plugged in when toiveling it and you let it dry for 24-48 hours

VERY serious!!!
I've done it with sandwich makers, panini makers, waffle makers, George foreman and probably others.
Dip the entire thing plug included waited a couple of days for it to dry before I used it.
I have been doing it for years. And so have many ppl I know.
