Abstract: An urn for use by Orthodox Jews on the Sabbath has a body portion for containing hot liquid and maintaining it at a temperature higher than 40° C. and a main faucet depending from a side wall thereof for controllably siphoning off a quantity of hot liquid. A support supports an auxiliary vessel having an opening aligned with the main faucet so that opening the main faucet allows hot liquid to pour directly into the auxiliary vessel, thereby preventing or reducing accidental pouring of the hot liquid into a vessel containing food or powdered beverage. A kit allows an urn to be adapted for supporting the auxiliary vessel and may include a height raiser for raising the urn so increase a clearance between the main faucet and a surface on which the urn is placed.
