In the current study, rheological and colorimetric methods were compared for determination of α-amylase activity of grain malt, used for Kyrgyz traditional fermented beverage Bozo. The highest α-amylase activity determined by colorimetric method was found in barley malt (32.83 A), followed by wheat (32.09 A), and was lowest in millet malt (10.82 A) and maize malt (10.76 A). Rheological parameters of millet porridge without and with malt were studied. The liquefaction effect of millet porridge after addition of malt was determined with rotational and oscillatory measurements. Results from stati ...Daha fazlası
