description The rheological behaviour of coconut milk was studied using a Haake rotational viscometer having a concentric cylinder geometry sensing system. The rheological model of coconut milk, incorporating the effects of concentration and temperature was developed. Experiments were conducted at 4 levels of temperatures in the range of 5°C to 65°C and 6 levels of concentrations ranging from 10 % to 50 % total solid (TS) .

The coconut milk, within the ranges of concentration and temperature studied, exhibited different rheological behaviours. Two rheological models, namely the Newtonian and Power Law model were applied to fit the experimental data. The coconut milk with concentrations of lower than 2 5% TS exhibits Newtonian behaviour.

Coconut milk that exhibits Newtonian behaviour was of low concentration while coconut milk that follows the Power Law model was of high concentration.
