The objective of present research work was to investigate the effect of process parameters viz., barrel temperature, screw speed and feed moisture content on textural properties of extruded product. The extruded products were developed from composite blend comprising of maize, finger millet, defatted soy and elephant foot yam in the proportion of 40:30:20:10 through the use of co-rotating twin screw extruder. The experimental plan was designed by statistical technique of 3 factors 5 levels central composite rotatable design. |
