Use a paper towel to dry the stopper and the inside of the bung hole. ( yeah, I said it, "bung hole" ) lol... but it works great!

That's what I did until until I had a batch that started to blow off. The foam moistened the stopper enough to let it slide out. Could have been a big mess if I hadn't noticed it in time. Now I go with "belt and suspenders" by drying off the stopper and strapping it down with cling film.
