Base Malts. Base malts usually account for a large percent of the total grain bill, with darker-colored specialty malts accounting for 10 to 25% of the grain bill. The only exception is wheat malt, which can make up to 100% of the total grain bill in brewing wheat beers. Base malts and, to some extent, light-colored specialty malts provide most of the enzymatic (diastatic) power to convert starches into fermentable sugars. The base malts provide the highest extract potential.
Brushing too hard, improper flossing techniques, infection or gum disease, can cause sensitive gums. (1) Other causes unrelated to oral hygiene could include a Vitamin K deficiency, hormonal changes during pregnancy, leukemia or blood disorders.
Daily brushing and flossing is essential for keeping your smile healthy. If you have sensitive teeth, then you may notice pain from cleaning or from the stimulation of hot or cold foods. According to the American Dental Association, tooth sensitivity can be caused by serious dental health concerns such as tooth decay or gum disease.
