Why aren't my lemon juice pearls staying strong? And separated?

They seem to glob on each other, mush up easily, can't be handled, and difficult to rinse off without destroying them. And aren't strong durable for plating. It's more like a glob of pearls(some burst) versus a pile of little pearls that are separated.

I've even added a little extra Agar the second test but same effect and problem. I'll continue to test more but today was frustrating to say the least.

Whats my issue? More Agar? Cool down the product longer then 10 mins before dropping? Boil longer? Any tips greatly appreciated!

Here is the recipe

Lemon pearls

Freeze oil in tall glass container for 3+ hours

100 mil water- 6.6 tablespoons 1/2 tsp of agar 1 tsp sugar Juice one lemon Dash Y food coloring or turmeric

And bring to a boil while whisking and cut it off and whisk. Rest for 10mins and syringe drop into cold oil. Rinse with water.
