Had a good scare! Kombucha exploded!

I know several of you guys make kombucha too and I bet you'll get a good laugh! I made kombuchas Wednesday night and I always use recycled kombucha bottles for my 2nd ferment. I leave them sit for 3 days and then refrigerate.

Well, my family was watching TV and reading when all of a sudden we heard a glass crashing sound. We all figured it was the cat that always breaks things. Nope.

The bottom of a kombucha bottle separated because of the pressure and the top shot off like a missile to the ceiling. 😂 What a mess!! I was going to put them in the fridge tonight. Wish I hadn't waited so long! Glad we weren't asleep when it happened.

I didn't think to take a picture of the bottle with all the mess but here's a picture of the ceiling. I hope I can get it all off. Good thing it didn't make a hole! 😆
