I'm brewing a RIS on New Years Day with an expected OG of 1.120. The grist is about 75% base malt and 25% specialty malt. Ideally I'd like to see an FG of 1.020-1.024.
I'm thinking if I mash around 150 for 90 minutes, I'll get a pretty fermentable wort even with all the specialty malt. My question is, is that too low for that high of an FG? Obviously I don't want it to go too low but I'm thinking with that much specialty malt, it'll be pretty much impossible.
Planning on pitching 2 packets of US-04.
