Deskripsi
Effects of extruder parameters (barrel temperature: 75–175°C; screw speed: 76–100 rpm) and feed formulations (feed moisture: 15–21%; mango peel powder: 0–33.33%) on the extrudate properties, moisture loss, and the mixing torque during extrusion was studied. Feed formulations containing high moisture and mango peel powder produced less expand and hard extrudates. The torque decreased as the barrel temperature, screw speed and mango peel powder content increased. Low temperature extrusion increased the moisture loss of extrudates. Increasing the mango peel powder reduced the extrudate expansion, but the post-drying subjected to the extrudate produced improved texture.
