Malto Dextrin is an intermediate product obtained during the controlled hydrolysis of starch. It is product midway between starch and glucose, when hydrolysed by enzymes, typically by Bacterial alpha Amylase and then additional conversion to get the desired DE which ranges between 4 to 30. The product thus obtained is refined by clarification, carbon treatment and ion exchange and then spray drying to a moisture level of 3% to 5%. Maltodextrin is a white powder and is extremely bland in taste with very little sweetness. When made into a solution, it exhibits very high viscosity although it does not hold water in itself. Its bland taste makes it inert on other food flavours and colours. It is a good agent to ensure dispersibility in cold water maintaining clarity and eye appeal.
