I use your same method for cleaning the inside of my BC, but never have a problem screwing the hose back, you should check the threads to see if they're damaged, if so you may want to replace the damaged part before it fails.

Most common problem with this method is that sometimes when you unscrew the hose or OPV from the bladder, the double nut comes out too creating another problem to separate them.
I bought a BC tool and tightened the double nut to the bladder and hand tight the hose and OPV to the double nut.

I've used the filling through the power inflator method for many yrs and it works allright.
