Adding acid to a carbonate/bicarbonate is sound, but you would have to keep adding acid and carbonate. The soda stream cannisters are also good, but you would need a regulator to release the gas at a constant flow. I think on balance the yeast is good providing it is working at its optimum.

Oh unless it's a one shot system - fill up the baggies with CO2 and away you go. In which case the acid to a carbonate/bicarbonate would be best.
