Can somebody help me convert a Troegs Perpetual Recipe from all grain to extract please?

Heres what I have for equipment:

5 Gallon brew pot: Starting out with 2 gallons to steep add 1 for the boil, and after evap, I usually end up with about 2.5 gallons of wort. I add that to about 2.5 gallons of water (or whatever it takes to hit OG) for fermenting ending up with 5 gallons of beer.

Heres the grain bill I need to convert:

Weyermann® Pilsner Malt 11.0 lb 81 % Mash 37 1 °L
Briess Munich Malt 10L 1.5 lb 11 % Mash 35 10 °L
Briess Caramel Malt 20L 1.0 lb 7 % Mash 34 20 °L

Last question.....do I need to adjust my hops for this conversion.

Beersmith has me turning a 60 minute hops addition to a 35 minute.
To me.....that tells me I didnt use the software correctly.
Im not really a newbie, but by no means am I very experienced either.

Thanks for the help
 
Hi here is the conversions you need.

11lbs = 8.25lme or 6.6lbs. Dme

1.5lbs = 1.125lbs. Lme or 1lb. Dme

1.0 lb. = .75 lb.lme or .6lb. Dme
Hope this helps out.
 
I have also found beer smith to say that as well. I went to using Brewers friend and find it a better recipe builder plug your recipe into it and it will help you out on the hops
