Does the water pass through the plastic cap? or are you drinking straight from the glass?

You drink directly from the glass not through the plastic cap. You have to take the cap off to drink the beverage.

It has a steel cap with small holes in it for water to flow through. Some small pieces of my frozen berries I put in it sometimes flow through but love it anyway. Got as gift from my daughter and use it often. Like it much!

Unfortunately, no, the actual drinking part is made of a hard plastic :( I was also disappointed in that. The piece that fits inside the drinking spout that regulates the flow of liquid does appear to be made of a silicone type material, but could also be made of plastic, I am not sure on that piece.

Not really sure what the issue is. We haven't had an issue with water getting inside the cap.

No. There is a hole on one side for the straw and a "sipper" slit on the other side that you can drink from.

No, water comes out by itself,it's just a spring under the white part that allows water not to spill. It sort of serves as a stopper/ water suspension regulator. Hope it's clear. No, you don't have to push anything other than fill up the white container with the spring on the bottom of it and put it on top of drinking part.

I have not done this. I have used a block of ice. I don't particularly care for putting plastic in the drinking water.

I only squeeze the bottle to drink from it. It definitely takes a little work to push the water through the filter, but works well. For getting the most water out as quickly as possible two hands is definitely the way to go.

It can get wet and can be immersed in a glass but you have to have all your well put the caps has several caps on each port that has to be well placed so that no water there

It is a hard plastic hole in the lid. You tip the bottle to drink like you would a cup.

Yes. The coffee or water is sitting on the plastic shut off. When you open the valve the liquid passes to the cup. It does not affect the taste.

I would say not, the glass carrafe is the only thing contacting the water, there may be a metal spring in the lid that pops up, but you can avoid touching the lid when pouring. BTW after I returned my defective unit, they sent me a replacement which has not had any problems for about 4 months now...

The cap is plastic with a unique push button opening for pouring. However, my only complaint, as you finish pouring it almost always drips down the side and makes a mess.

i usually drink ice water from mine, never noticed if it was "cold" compared to glass or plastic . . one nice thing is that it doesn't "sweat" (granted I'm in SoCal, glass and uninsulated stainless will sweat some). I own two of these and I always grab this before my pint style glasses, I will probably buy another one or two so there is always a clean one, despite the expense.

You can drink as if you do out of a faucet. not designed to drink directly out of it, but you can.

Yes. It has a plastic spigot that the distilled water comes through to the jar.

Yes..The threads are formed at the top and the cap covers the threads..when you drink 'straight" from the bottle your mouth is on the threads..I hope that answered your question?
