Kombucha is probably the most amazing scoby because it is firstly so good to drink and secondly produces a strong scoby that can be used to make many sort of objects and among them clothes , By the way vinegar scoby could probably be used for that too, but they are much more expensive to make and the residual odor is not really perfume like

By the way I am not an expert in kombucha especially not the bottled up sort, even if I mage a few trial with one exploded bottle : not enough gas on the top so the water could not escape through the rubber seal, the pressure increased and the bottle exploded silently, not enough gas to make a big catastrophe, the bottle parts were still in position, but the glass was broken!
- A carbonation with whatever O2 is left in the liquid and at its surface.
- A diminution of the sugar content.
- A generation of alcohol.
- An increase in acidity.
- High hygiene and all used gears in close previous contact with boiling water.
- A kombucha acid enough acid enough to avoid risk of botulism.
