MANUFACTURE OF TAPIOCA IN THE
MALAY STATES.

Tapioea is stated to be produced in the
Malay States from cassava starch in the
following manner. The starch, while still
wet, is made into small round pellets by
pressing, rolling and shaking it, and forcing
it through a sieve on to a piece of cloth
which is kept in constant movement. The
pellets then fall on to an iron plate, which
IS also kept shaking, and is heated to "a
temperature Of about 100 c.. The heat
causes II partial conversion of the starch into
deXtrin, and swells the pellets, which be-
come gelatinous in appearance. The pro
duct IS called pearl tapioca. Pellets lis
mlIIimetres IN diameter form seed tapioca';
5 mllimetres in diameter, medium pearl;
5 millimetIes, bullet pearl.
