Physicochemical properties of domestic millet starches were determined. Amylose contents of nonwaxy and waxy millet starches were 28.0 and 8.0 %, respectively. The water binding capacity of nonwaxy millet starch was slightly higher than that of waxy millet starch. There was no recognizable difference on granule size between nonwaxy and waxy millet starch. Abrupt increases in swelling power over 80 deg C of gelatinization temperature were characteristic features of millet starches. The initiation of increase in light penetration was started slightly earlier in case of waxy millet starch. Maximum viscosities of 6-7 % nonwaxy and waxy millet starch were 300-460 and 800-1080 B.U., respectively. The conspicuous break-down was noticed in waxy millet starch
