Is Corn Sugar the same as Dextrose? (Corn Sugar As referred to by John Palmer in "How to Brew")

Yes they are one in the same, just watch out when you buy though ( although it would usually be called dextrose) cos there is also corn syrup and this is not dextrose

I read somewhere that dex is sometimes called wheat sugar too.
