Method of producing .beta.-cyclodextrin
 The present invention; is a method of producing .beta.-cyclodextrin at a higher efficiency from a raw material other than starch, comprising making a malto-oligosaccharide with 2 to 10 glucoses co-exist with cyclodextrin glucanotransferase in a solution containing an organic solvent which can precipitate 50% or more of .beta.-cyclodextrin when an excessive amount of the solvent is added to the solution of the .beta.-cyclodextrin and effecting the reaction at a lower temperature than 40.degree.
