I am looking for a 20 oz. non-plastic container to drink HOT beverages from (e.g. coffee, lattes, cappuccinos, etc.). Is this jar safe for HOT drinks?

I drink HOT coffee out of the jar every day. However, this top didn't really do it for me. It's plastic and occasionally leaks. I prefer the Cuppow lid that screws on with a mason ring.

I mainly use it for my cold protein shakes and have not tried hot beverages, I'm sorry I couldn't help. I do love it for cold drinks and my shakes though:)

I have never put warm beverages in mine personally but I am sure you could! Its pretty durable. I think warmer rather than scolding hot! The cup probably wouldn't keep the beverage warm for very long but would be able to take the heat for a short period.

You can but I don't think drinking hot liquids would be a good idea because the chemicals might leach out, plus it smells horrible when heated . I would not recommend it for drinking mugs only for decorative ones.

I don't understand your question? The top is plastic, very secure on the container. I use mine to store ice coffee in the frig. I don't "boil" anything in mine or put boiling water in it either. It works very fine for my purposes.

I'm not sure. It is made of hard inflexible plastic. I guess you could, but I would look into a cuppow for hot drinks.

I use my bottle for coffee in the morning with no problems. The manufacturer warns that hot liquids can cause scolding and discourages from doing, so just be careful. You might not want to drink a hot liquid while moving, but it's OK when at rest. The bottle seal is made of silicone rubber, so it won't melt. The drinking spout is thick plastic, but I've had no problems so far and this is my second Thermos of this type.

No . Since it is plastic , it is only good for cold or room temp beverages. Contigo makes a stainless steel for hot.

Amazon (through Backcountry) has finally started selling the lid. It's not airtight (the tumbler isn't threaded for a cap), but will keep things the right temp longer and maybe reduce spills.http://www.amazon.com/Klean-Kanteen-Pint-Lid/dp/B00IPOT5B8/ref=pd_sbs_sg_5?ie=UTF8&refRID;=140VDB5S7KMC6A577RPM

Yes, I only use this plastic jar, much lighter and it won't break when my clumsy alter ego drops it. That is what happened to the original glass one.

Its probably ok. Plastic in the lid might start to take on the flavor but i' thinking of getting the all metal replacement lid for mine. Also cold liquid seems to stay really cold it it for quite awhile, i'm assuming it will be the same with hot, it will probably be too hot to hold in your hand.

I haven't personally used them for hot beverages, but if you're looking for an alternative to plastic, I know that glass mugs designed specifically for hot beverages are available. I'll brew a pot, and pour it in the glass and confirm whether or not it can withstand high temps. Great question.

It's just fine for hot liquids, cereal, coffee etc. It has a snap-in lid to help when you reconstitute oats and dehydrated foods. What you can't do is boil water in it, it isn't microwave safe but it is dishwasher safe. It is "graduated" inside with markings from 100ml and 4 oz up to 600 ml and 20 oz.

I have the same question - am wondering if you can put hot beverages in it without the glass breaking?

I haven't used this jar for making any food. However, it is a thick glass. If you need an air tight container, this may not be your jar. I currently have two of them.

I'm not sure why they advertise that it is great for all beverages because in my opinion it's not intended for hot drinks. Great for cold ones though. I bought it for my father in law to drink water out of on the go because he he doesn't like drinking out of plastic bottles. He says he can taste the plastic. He uses this frequently as an alternative. Hope this helps you out.

I use it for this purpose and carry it in a metal flask. There are plastic containers that are safe for carry as well, I'm sure google could help you there.

No, it's not to be used for hot beverages as stated in the product description.
