OP here.
Nalgene bottles can hold just-boiled water right?
If so, I plan on fashioning a wire stand from a hangar to hold the mesh filter I have over the bottle, while I gently pour just boiled water (Coffee is best brewed at 205F) over the mesh, letting it drip into the bottle, and then serving people from the nalgene.
Or I could buy a french press thermos (non-glass one) and share no coffee.
