I found this explanation in Sausage Maker....   Don't know about [color= rgb(24, 24, 24)]"Cultured Dextrose Concentrate".....   Dave[/color]
[h1]#15100 Powdered Dextrose, 1 lb. 8 oz.[/h1]

Your Price:  $7.99 Item Number:  15100 Quantity: Email this page to a friend
Used in processing semi-dry cured and dry-cured sausages. A sweetener only 70% as sweet as regular sugar. A nutrient for lactic acid organisms that help in fermentation, giving the tangy flavor. Dextrose is heavier than meat and forces itself into the cells of the meat. Use 2-5 Tb. powdered dextrose per 10 lbs. of meat. 1 lb. 8 oz. powdered dextrose will process approximately 200 lbs. of meat

Thanks Martin... 

 That's what i was after.

Next question... what kind of shelf life does this dextrose & ECA have?

Omak...

   I had looked at it from Sausage Maker, but wanted to get some "encapsulated citric acid" also. S.M. price on the ECA was ridiculous as compared to B.P.!  

Thanks though!

You are welcome..... No  problem.... It's even cheaper on Amazon going through brewers supplies....     Dave
