Abstract: Gelatinization characteristics of the sweet potato starch using as auxiliary for beer were studied. The optimum conditions for sweet potato’s gelatinization are adding 12 times weight of water and 10 U/g of α-amylase, then gelatinizing at 80 ℃ for 20 minutes. Corresponding saccharifies rate is 77.3%.

Key words: sweet potato starch, auxiliary material, gelatinization
