They have adapters now to convert bottles to use a hose.

Here's one model for one type of bottle, but other bottles are supported by other brands.

Bacteria in bladders and the rubber taste make me too nervous to try them out.

Yep, that has been my go to method as well. I got tired of the hose, the sloshing around, worry about a puncture, etc. and then the cleaning. Also it is way easier to filter into a wide mouth bottle vs. filling a reservoir when filtering water.
