I have weighed out both my protein and dextrose, and it just happens to be that dextrose is about 2x as dense as my protein. This means that if you want to double the amount of dextrose per gram of protein, you would use one scoop of protein and one scoop of dextrose. I would recommend somewhere between 80-100 grams of dextrose PWO with 40-50 grams of protein.

so just use the scoop from the protein powder and use it for the dextrose? hmm..

The scoop I use which is an old optimum scoop comes out to be about 40 grams of dextrose per scoop.
