A study was undertaken to develop an extruded product using three composite formulation of barnyard millet (BM) and maize (M) grits (180 micron). The formulations (BM: M - 70:30, 60:40 and 50:50) were extruded using a twin screw extruder. Among the three formulations, the 50:50 was reported to be best based on the sensory evaluation. The temperature range of 100-120°C for barrel and 350-400 rpm for screw speed were considered. Based on expansion ratio at lower screw speeds of 400 rpm, the expansion ratio of products was higher especially for barrel temperature of 110°C. However, good expanded products (Expansion ratio - 3.949) could be obtained also at optimum screw speed and barrel temperature.
