Ideally yes but it's really hard to find fully metal driking bottles.
If you buy something like a Sigg aluminium bottle or no-name copy it will be lined with some kind of plastic.
If you use a light weight drinking bladder that will be plastic too. I've read that risk is much higher if you apply heat to a plastic container. This is why you should avoid microwaving in plastic containers.
So that leaves you either only using a cold liquids in plastic and accepting some risk or buying expensive (and relatively heavy) titanium drinking bottles.

- Lio 5y agoJust looked them up. Looks really nice. Maybe a bit heavy for me when hiking but really nice for day to day stuff. I like the Vargo stuff. Also the new Keego flexible bottles look really interesting.
- mprovost 5y agoUsing an insulated bottle kind of defeats the purpose which is to transfer heat from the water to yourself. You'll wake up in the morning with a bottle full of hot water but you'll still be cold.
- Tcepsa 5y agoKleen Kanteen sells non-insulated metal bottles as well; I've used them for this purpose (not sleeping, but holding against my body to help stay warm in a cool room). Bonus: once the temperature drops far enough you can also drink it for a quick internal thermal boost, if needed.
