Kommentar zu Makhshirin 3:3
הָרוֹדֶה פַת חַמָּה וּנְתָנָהּ עַל פִּי חָבִית שֶׁל יַיִן, רַבִּי מֵאִיר מְטַמֵּא. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה מְטַהֵר. רַבִּי יוֹסֵי מְטַהֵר בְּשֶׁל חִטִּים וּמְטַמֵּא בְשֶׁל שְׂעֹרִים, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהַשְּׂעֹרִים שׁוֹאֲבוֹת:
[Wenn] man heißes Brot aus dem Ofen nahm und es auf den Mund eines Glases Wein stellte, hält Rabbi Meir es für unrein [das heißt, es kann sich verunreinigen]. Rabbi Yehudah hält es für rein. Rabbi Yose hält es für rein [wenn das Brot hergestellt wird] aus Weizen, aber unrein [wenn das Brot hergestellt wird] aus Gerste, weil Gerste [Feuchtigkeit] aufnimmt.

English Explanation of Mishnah Makhshirin
One who drew hot bread off the side of an oven and put it upon the mouth of a jar of wine: The bread mentioned here must be bread that was mixed with fruit juice which does not cause flour to be susceptible to impurity. [If the bread was already susceptible because it had been mixed with water, then this mishnah is not an issue].

Bartenura on Mishnah Makhshirin
רבי מאיר מטמא – meaning to say, the bread is made fit to receive Levitical uncleanness on account of the wine that was absorbed in it. Alternatively, if the wine was impure/unclean, Rabbi Meir declares it impure on account of the impure wine that was absorbed in it (i.e., the bread).

Rabbi Meir declares it susceptible to uncleanness; Rabbi Meir says that the hot bread, no matter the kind, will draw wine out of the barrel and therefore it is susceptible to impurity.

But Rabbi Judah declares it insusceptible. Rabbi Judah says that the bread does not draw off the wine and therefore it is not susceptible.

English Explanation of Mishnah Makhshirin
Rabbi Yose declares it insusceptible in the case of wheat bread and susceptible in the case of barley bread, because barley absorbs [liquids]. Rabbi Yose distinguishes between wheat bread, which is less absorbent and barley bread which is more absorbent. Only the latter is susceptible to impurity.
