So you have a success story on black currant?

I love black currant, but despite all my efforts, I can't win a fight against aphids and American gooseberry mildew on it. Every year young shouts are covered with both... The funny thing is - I have gooseberry too, and that one is careless - no mildew , no aphids... I tried every solution I found so far online:
for aphids
Soap, wood ashes, insecticide soap, neem oil, mustard lady bugs(they didn't like the aphids and just left by the next day),

for mildew
Milk spray, Serenade, neem oil, copper spray, baking soda spray .

So I started to think that either who ever post these solutions online didn't try them themselves, or there is a some important trick in technique I miss. So I would like to hear a success story from the people, who had this problems and solved them! Please share your wisdom) As many details as possible are greatly appreciated!
