Anything that sticks out here that I am missing? I was thinking of using some 80L Crystal to add some more body but I think the Malto Dexrin will take care of that.

Also I have seen some recipes in Beer Captured where they steep the darker grains separate from the lighter grains. Is there a reason for this?

Adding some crystal will make the final product a little sweeter as well as adding body. 12 oz. of MD should be plenty though.
