I'm trying to concoct a couple of recipes using some oats, one's a porter and the other, which features more oats, is a golden honey ale. I'm trying to figure out if I should bother with a protein rest in my (all grain) mash or not. I use Beersmith and it tells me to do a protein rest. Is it really necessary or should I just mash as usual and accept the consequences?
I've seen in other threads that people think not, maybe I won't in the Porter to get the most out of the oats and will in the Golden to minimize haze?
