I'm not an expert, but my mum used to make a lot of jam and stuff. I expect you already do sterilise all the equipment and seal the lids over the hot liquid to vacuum pack it, but you might also try the following:

Find a good winemaking supplier and get some sterilising tablets and put that in your mix. It can't do any harm, and it may help.

Here's a tip on sterlising the jars:

I'm not sure if you ought to use Campden tablets as well as these kill yeast in wine making, but also kill some of the bacteria.

Thanks for that. The more I think about it the more I think it must have been the containers.
