For cooking I figure I can squeeze the pouch to force the water through and into the pot. However, I'm a bit concerned about using the 3L Nalgene afterwards for drinkable water once I get back near civilization. Would rinsing it out with soap and water then letting it dry in the sun work? Would I need to take greater precautions?
Personally I'd be inclined to clean the bottle with bleach.
