AK Meats Looks like Hi Mountain uses maltodextrin as a filler/binder.
Since sure gel isn’t an option try nonfat milk powder to add more binding.
Also great advice that others have given and protein extraction can’t be stressed enough
Good Luck on your next batch!

AK Meats Where in Alaska do you live. They could ship it to someone in the continental US then USPS it to AK rather than UPS. Ask Jon or Austin if they can use USPS to ship to you, if would certainly be much cheaper.

AK Meats

Here is what johnsbrewhouse was talking about. Not sure what zone you are located in

[AK Meats]

twilliams I ended up ordering a soy protein

AK Meats I know sure gel is the most popular around here, but I have used soy protein for years with no complaints

twilliams I live in Washington State. I have shipped UPSP priority mail to AK a couple of times. We have several friends that live there.

[AK Meats]

johnsbrewhouse hopefully they aren’t charging you 100 for shipping

AK Meats USPS isn’t, it went to somewhere near Ketchikan to a fishing community that had a PO. The others live in Anchorage.

johnsbrewhouse that’s where I live is Ketchikan…they wanted 100 for shipping so I told them to cancel the order…I have soy protein on the way

I agree with PapaSop on the sure-jel and I also like the “twang” the ECA gives.
