Responsa for Zevachim 192:14
אמר אביי לא צריכא אלא לדאמר מר בישל במקצת כלי טעון מריקה ושטיפה כל הכלי הא תרומה לא צריך אלא מקום בישול
- Said Abaye: This holds good<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' This statement that terumah does not necessitate scouring and rinsing.');"><sup>26</sup></span> only in respect of what a master said, [viz.]: If one boiled [flesh] in part of a vessel, the whole vessel must be scoured and rinsed; but [in the case of] terumah only the part where it was boiled needs [scouring and rinsing]. Raba said: It holds good only in respect of what a master said: '[It shall be scoured and rinsed] in water', but not in wine; 'in water', but not in a mixture:<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Of wine and water.');"><sup>27</sup></span>
Teshuvot Maharam
Q. A drop of milk fell on the outside of a (meat) pot covering the greater part of it. Are the pot and its contents fit for use?
A. Rabbenu Samson permits its use while Ri forbids it. Ri bases his opinion on the fact that a drop of milk does not spread over the whole pot, and since the part of the pot affected is not sixty times the volume of the milk, the milk is not neutralized. Therefore, even according to Ri if one could gage the volume of the milk and find a ratio of one to sixty to the volume of the part of the pot affected, the milk would be neutralized. In any event, if the loss be an appreciable one, or the enjoyment of the Sabbath or a holiday be involved, one may be lenient, in view of R. Samson's opinion.
