have two extracts under my belt, one of them was with steeping specialty grains. looking to move on to partial mash. want to try and make something similar to the Stone XI Anniversary Ale. Below is the recipe from Stone's:

Stone 11th Anniversary Ale Recipe

Grain Bill:
90% pale malt
5% 60°L Crystal
5% Weyermann Carafa III Special

OG target is 20.5°P (1.082 SG) Terminal Gravity target is 4°P (1.016 SG)

Hops:

Bittering at start of boil: 100% Chinook

Flavor hops added at end of boil or whirlpool: 50/50 blend of Simcoe and Amarillo

Target 120 IBU’s.

Ferment with good ale yeast. We used our house yeast.

Dry-Hop with 50/50 blend of Simcoe and Amarillo, use LOTS! (we used 1 ½ pounds per barrel).

Here's what my recipe looks like after using beersmith for the first time to convert it to partial mash. Keep in mind, i use an electric stove that can barely get 3gal to a rolling boil. So if i need 1.25 quarts per lb of grain for the strike water and then 2q per lb for the sparge water, i have to really limit the amount of grains i can use for the mash, or else i will have too much wort when i combine them.
