הַיַּיִן, מִשֶּׁיְּקַפֶּה. אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁקִּפָּה, קוֹלֵט מִן הַגַּת הָעֶלְיוֹנָה וּמִן הַצִּנּוֹר, וְשׁוֹתֶה. הַשֶּׁמֶן, מִשֶּׁיֵּרֵד לָעוּקָה. אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁיָּרַד, נוֹטֵל מִן הֶעָקָל וּמִבֵּין הַמָּמָל וּמִבֵּין הַפַּצִּים, וְנוֹתֵן לַחֲמִטָּה וְלַתַּמְחוּי, אֲבָל לֹא יִתֵּן לַקְּדֵרָה וְלַלְּפָס כְּשֶׁהֵן רוֹתְחִין. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, לַכֹּל הוּא נוֹתֵן, חוּץ מִדָּבָר שֶׁיֶּשׁ בּוֹ חֹמֶץ וְצִיר:
Wine, from when he skims [the scum from its surface]. Even though he has skimmed, he may collect from the upper winepress and from the pipe and drink. Oil, from when it falls into the trough. Even though it has fallen, he may take from the olive pulp bale and from between the olive press-stone and from between the board and put it on the batter-cake or on the plate, but he may not put it in the pot or in the stew-pot when they are boiling. Rabbi Yehudah says, he may put it in anything, except for something that has in it vinegar and brine.
Tosefta Maasrot
One who consecrates his wine vat -- [it is liable for tithes] before the seeds formed lumps and he siphoned off the froth ("שילה וקופה," see Yer. Challah II.3.9, Guggenheimer Tr.) [he is exempt] -- but once the seeds formed lumps and he siphoned off the froth, and the Temple Treasurer came or he redeemed it -- he is liable. [If] he consecrated it before the seeds formed lumps and he siphoned off the froth, and [before] the Temple Treasurer came, or the seeds formed lumps and he siphoned off the froth and and afterwards he redeemed it -- since at the time that [the vat] was subject to being liable (i.e., as the processing had finished) he was exempt, he is exempt. [With respect to] wine whose froth has been siphoned off, even though it has been siphoned off, he may [still] take it from the upper winepress and from the ducts and drink it [without tithing] (Maasr. 1:7).

Tosefta Maasrot
One who skims [wine] off [the top of] a trough, or skims [wine] off a vessel -- it may be put on a cake or on a large plate (see Maasr. 1:7). One who pours [wine] out from [one] vessel for heating liquids to [another] vessel for heating liquids, from stew-pot to stew-pot, or from pot to pot -- it is permitted to put it on the second, but forbidden to put it [back] on the first.
