Chances are good that you simply installed the star adjuster incorrectly. This causes it not to "lock" into it's new position as you tighten it. Therefore you continuously have a loose pedal feeling as the brake shoes keep backing away from the drum.

I'm pretty sure I made that mistake years back and it was caused by the same issue.

Remove the drums and check that your star adjustment it holding.
