Abstract
Effect of processing conditions on DM loss and quality characteristics of malt from Indaf-6 variety of finger millet was studied. Increasing the temp. of malting from 15 to 35 degree C caused increased DM loss. Germination at 15-20 degree C gave malts of higher alpha-amylase activities than those germinated at 30-35 degree C. Germination at 20 degree C for 4-5 days gave malt with max. enzyme activity and acceptable DM loss. Drying the malt to 12% moisture and kilning at 70 degree C for about 45 min resulted in malt of desired aroma, max. retention of alpha-amylase and min. loss of available lysine. The alpha-amylase in the malted flour caused the slurries to have low hot paste viscosity.
