Question
What is the amount of water required for the after-blessing? (The question concerns children in a cheder who drink from a faucet or cold water.)
Answer
Hello,
The general rule is that one must drink a revi'it of water within the appropriate time for drinking a revi'it.
Therefore, if 150 ml is consumed within the usual time, an after-blessing is required. However, if this amount is consumed slowly, no after-blessing is recited.
In cold water dispensers, it is common for the water to flow slowly, and then the drinking takes place over a longer period, and in such a case, no after-blessing is recited.
