Frequently Asked Questions About Low DE Tapioca Maltodextrin DE 6 to 10 Bulk Supply
When should a formulator use low DE maltodextrin (DE 6–10) instead of DE 16–20?
Low DE maltodextrin (DE 6–10) has longer glucose chains, providing higher viscosity/body, fat-like creaminess in ice cream and dairy drinks, lower browning (Maillard reaction), and lower moisture pick-up (hygroscopicity) in dry mixes.
