Yes, depending on the bottle quality. I used to use cheap ones from a dollar shop and they exploded on second or third day, making an incredible mess. With plastic bottles, the excess pressure can occasionally distort the bottle. It depends on bottle quality, room temperature and type of fruit you added for flavor

Thanks I really need to hear from someone who is already doing this. I had been learning on my own phase but too afraid to Brew my first batch. Right now I am still about to open the flip top bottles I ordered from amazon LOL. I got scared about mold growth just thinking about it. Do you encounter them on this kind of fermentation? You see I really need to learn a lot 😔

If you covered with a cloth during first fermentation and the scoby was not mouldy then it’s all good. No mold during second fermentation usually. When burping, just open and close quickly, all you need is to hear the burp and close the lid right after.
