Different flavour, but also cloudy, DV Doppio espresso. I suspect there's some oil in it. It clears if I give it a couple of seconds in the microwave.

I refrigerate most of my concentrates and there's a number that need to be warmed before I can use them because of that. |

Don't know if it helps, but I had a mix that stayed cloudy. I poured it all into a different type of bottle and a day later it was clear. Perhaps a somehow contaminated bottle???

It has been soaked over night and thoroughly washed though. |

Interesting thread, I actually want a cloudy mix for one of my recipes, but can't achieve it without compromising the flavour. One sure fire way to cloud a bottle is anise extract and water  , I know you have been playing with anise... Cross contamination? A drop of anise from a reused syringe? |

The syringe explanation is actually the most likely Mr Lord. Well done! I did make up my Pernod mix the day before. Syringes were washed by my OH but I guess residue could have been left. Good news is, the mix is clear this morning! |
