IF you're lucky, it will create a perfect seal.

I use a recipe similar to that too and have found that it works pretty well for 2-3 weeks. The only thing I add to that recipe is an equal part (to yeast) of baking soda. It works a little better IME.

Good luck. You'll be pricing out pressurized units before you know it. I've only been using DIY CO2 for a few months and I already want to upgrade. This hobby is way too interesting.
