How much two row pale malt?

[steppenwolph]

I am making up a recipe, its a partial mash wheat pale ale. The grain part of the recipe is:

1 lb pale two row malt
1 lb Munich malt
1 lb Caravienne malt
1 lb wheat malt

My question is, will 1 lb of the two row provide enough enzyme for conversion?

Here is the full recipe

Fermentables:
6 lbs. dry wheat extract
1 lb pale two row malt
1 lb Munich malt
1 lb Caravienne malt
1 lb wheat malt

Hops:
1 oz. Centenial @ 60 min
1 oz Centenian @ 20 min
1 oz Citra @ flameout
1 oz Willamette dry hop after 1 week.

6 gallon target boil volume.

Expected OG 1.60 - 1.065
Expected FG 1.016
ABV 6.4%

I would love to hear any comments or helpful advice on any or all of the above. I am very new to this. Thanks.

I am pretty new to brewing too but wheat malt definitely has enzymes in it and I think Munich does too. You shouldn't have any problems with conversion.

Yes. The 2-Row, Munich, and Wheat Malt can convert themselves, and with only 1 lb of caramel malt it will be fine.

Ah, good to know. Thanks. There is a lot to learn.

Munich,Pale and wheat malt Will Self Convert, and Caravienne malt Does not need converted only needs steeped so you have nothing to worry about at all.
