Can I fill it with boiling water or will it make the straw inside melt?

The Bunn is all stainless steel construction I don't think boiling water should damage the unit. I've been using my 2 pots for at least six months with no proplems. Bunn has been great for standing behind their products.

I had no problem with melting. I went directly from a tea kettle with boiling water and put the lid on it.

That shouldn't be an issue. We've poured near boiling hot coffee in it several times and not had an issue per se.

The inner core and straw are made of a light weight metal so they won't melt. The spout is made of plastic but I doubt it would melt. I pour freshly made pots of coffee in mine (not boiling, but extremely hot) and it has been fine.

Yes, that is the main purpose of the dispensing pot. To keep hot liquids hot. Good for boiling water, coffee, hot chocolate, etc. The "straw" is made of metal. They're so great, I have four of these. They can keep coffee hot for >12 hours.

YES! I do that all the time to warm up the pot before putting the coffee in it.

The "straw" is made of stainless steel I'm pretty sure (or some other kind of metal) so you should be fine. I love mine and have had it for 5 months now. Hope that helps.

The straw inside is stainless steel so yes, you can fill it with boiling hot water.

I wouldn't put anything hot in it even though it's double walled the heat of the coffee or cocoa could make it uncomfortable to handle. I feel that the glass and straw could hold up to the heat.

Yes, you can but Depends on the temperature of your waterI always put hot water in the bottle, it can keep boiling hot for long time. little sip is fine.Lid is normal, but you can store some tea inside the lid. but it wont help make tea

I wouldn't put hot boiling water in the bladder as this is made with a silicon type plastic, room temp is best

Thin straws can but sipper cups should be fine. I honestly think putting straws in boiling water is better... and easier. :)

Do not use boiling hot water. I ignored the instructions and figured I could get away with it, but it melted the cap on the reservoir and leaked heavily afterwards requiring a new reservoir.

I don't think hot water would work well in it. It's insulated with a rubber material. I'm not sure but I can imagine it melting? I would try a reusable microwavable heating pad instead.

You can put hot water and won't damange the pouring plastic. BUT outter casing will be the same temperature as to water temp, you will get burned if not careful. It is not temp control bottle.

Yes, definitely. Naturally, you need to be aware of the temperature of the drink, but this would be true with any straw.

Nope! All anyone is suppose to put in it is water! So if they are putting anything else in it, it will smell. It is made for boiling water only!

i have put boiling water directly in it and its been ok. its real tough glass. mainly got it to brew tea in. works great.

You can add it directly to the bag, but would be better to dump the contents into a better container to add the boiling water in my opinion. The size and shape of the bag would make it difficult to add the boiling water without scalding yourself. The bag would hold it.

I've used very warm water and it is fine. It is medium to heavy vinyl so it could probably handle pretty hot water. Don't know about boiling water.

Don't to that it is made of plastic and boiling water will melt it. Steam is just a fake word in this case, you only get spray.

Yes it will hold boiling water. It is a silicone material and you can use it for hot food or for drinking hot coffee or tea.

Lukewarm won't be a problem. It is sturdy bpa free enviro plastic. I wouldn't store boiling water in there but I use very hot tap water to clean it on occasion and it's not a problem.

No, it will not boil water. You could make tea/instant whatever with it as it gets plenty hot, but not boiling.
