I am formulating a NEIPA recipe. This will be my first true NEIPA brew, although I have done many pale asked with mainly late hop additions. But my question lies with the fact my recipe had a lot of flaked unmalted grains. My initial reaction would be to do a protein rest. However, most recipes I read about online only call for a single step infusion mash somewhere between 152-154°F. Has anyone done or recommend a protein rest for a NEIPA?
 
What percentage flaked unmalted grains are you using? Most NEIPA recipes I've seen use less than 20% flaked oats or wheat with the rest being 2 row. At this rate, a single step infusion mash works fine.
