  -> Right, depends on the context, but the sentence given fits with using a small amount ('halv deciliter) of this stuff as additive. The rest of the text should indicate.
neutral  Alison MacG: Does seem very likely that it is part of the product name. The product is an attractant and as a marketing gimmick each different variety has been given a calibre designation as a name (according to the German link posted as a reference below).
