Do you know what % of that is fixed vs. the inflation adjusted rate? Also, I was confused by how often the inflation rate adjusts the interest rate.

The fixed rate is 0.00% -- it's all inflation rate. Inflation rate is adjusted every six months.

Here are past fixed rates going back to 1998: https://www.treasurydirect.gov/indiv/research/indepth/ibonds... It hasn't been much above 0% since 2008.
