so just to be clear, on the mash time it's to be held for 90min? with the grains then bring to boil and add LME??
Holy cow- that looks just like my recipe! Here's mine: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f66/da-yoopers-house-pale-ale-100304/
I'm a bit of a style nazi- I wouldn't call a 1.064 beer with 1.5 pounds of crystal and Vienna malt an IPA. Looks like a tasty hoppy APA to me. It's a wee bit higher in IBUs and OG than APA guidelines indicate, but the crystal will soften those IBUs and make it more balanced than an IPA.

what exactly is out of style for IPA? 1.064 is dead-center of BJCP range, as is IBU's.
Is 10% crystal really that much? low and long mash made it very dry.
Well, I think ANY crystal is too much in an IPA, so I'm probably not the one to ask!
Seriously, I'd go no higher than about 5% in an IPA. Sure, your OG and IBUs are in the IPA range, but the perception of bitterness and "hoppiness" may be quite a bit less. If I were judging the beer, I don't know that I'd be able to discern it as an IPA vs. an APA because of the crystal offsetting the perceptible bitterness. The Vienna malt will give it more maltiness, too, and a perception of depth.
I think it looks like a very tasty beer- don't get me wrong! I think it's more of a higher OG APA than an IPA, that's all I mean.
