ABSTRACT:
There is provided a process to prepare maltose powder containing crystalline beta-maltose hydrate, comprising concentrating an aqueous solution of a high-purity maltose having a maltose content of at least 85% DS to a moisture content below 10 w/w %, partially crystallizing alpha-maltose in the syrup, and crystallizing beta-maltose hydrate in the same syrup while converting the resultant crystalline alpha-maltose into crystalline beta-maltose hydrate. Use of the invention enables consistently high-quality maltose powders at a reduced drying cost.
