1lb of grain = .75lbs of LME = .6lbs of DME. I would think you could convert the pale malt into LME or DME and steep the other grains.
 
AHH HAA!!!

There is the problem! WHEW

I kept thinking DME was grain (I know better then that) so my numbers were giving me like 11lbs of Extract and I KNEW that was not right!!

6.75 LME is more like it!

Thanks
