Abstract
Pasting properties of the two commercial products of air-dried sediment of acorn were studied with viscoamylograph. The concentrations used were 7.0~9.5% and heating temperatures were 86.5$^{\circ}C$, 89.5$^{\circ}C$ and 92.5$^{\circ}C$. The viscosity increased as the heating temperature increased at a fixed concentration, but sample A at 8.5% concentration and sample B at 9.5% concentration maintained the constant peak viscosity regardless the heating temperatures. Samples heated to 92.5$^{\circ}C$ showed breakdown at all concentrations. The 15-min height and cold viscosity were negatively correlated with the heating temperature at a constant concentration. There was a 1% difference in concentration to give the same indices of amylogram between two samples.
