You can test your bottles buy filling them half full with water, tightening the cap as tight as you can and shake the water. If no water escapes it should be fine. Make sure when you fill the bottle with your Kombucha that it is as full to the top as you can get it.It's best when there is not air left in the bottle. I let mine sit for 7 days to get a nice fizz on it and then refrigerate it. My best bottles are Perrier bottles small and large. They caps tend to tighten up nice. I sometimes mix my finished Kombucha in a glass of Perrier (I like the lime one best) for a refreshing drink. A couple of other things: I have heard that some people have had their bottle explode. I've never experienced that. Also some people will add just a little sugar at bottling, I've tried it and it doesn't seem to make much difference. Good luck with your brew - brewing has changed my life!Sue Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11069763307131317457noreply@blogger.com
