Did you boil the cordial concentrate first? Well known to be difficult to brew from, has a horrible preservative in it.

If that's the case mate I'd heavily recommend the Lowcaz *mighta spelled it wrong* polish fruit syrups instead. Think it's Roddy who promotes those a lot on the forums. Think he primes with them and gets a nice flavour. :)

Spot on dude 😃

I have loads of Polish shops here that have blackcurrant Lowicz, tesco etc sometimes have it

In usually add some pectolase to mine, helps it to clear apparently, 1 tsp per 5L
