I've tried to combine some recipes to come up with an Imperial India Black ale. This is the first partial mash recipe that I have modified and wanted to get some opinions/advice on it.

Recipe: Imperial BS (Black Simcoe) Pale Ale
Recipe Specifications
--------------------------
Boil Size: 3.00 gal
Post Boil Volume: 2.78 gal
Batch Size (fermenter): 5.00 gal
Bottling Volume: 4.75 gal
Estimated OG: 1.092 SG
Estimated Color: 46.6 SRM
Estimated IBU: 101.8 IBUs
Brewhouse Efficiency: 60.00 %
Est Mash Efficiency: 60.0 %
Boil Time: 60 Minutes
Ingredients:
------------
3 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM)
2 lbs Caramel/Crystal Malt - 80L (80.0 SRM)
1 lbs Carafa III (525.0 SRM)
2.50 oz Chinook [13.00 %] - First Wort 60.0 min
2 lbs Pale Liquid Extract (8.0 SRM)
1 lbs Corn Sugar (Dextrose) (0.0 SRM)
6 lbs Pale Liquid Extract [Boil for 15 min]
1.00 oz Centennial [10.00 %] - Boil 5.0 min
1.00 oz Simcoe [13.00 %] - Boil 5.0 min
2.00 oz Centennial [10.00 %] - Aroma Steep 20.0 min
2.00 oz Simcoe [13.00 %] - Aroma Steep 20.0 min
2.0 pkg Safale American (DCL/Fermentis #US-05)
2.00 oz Centennial [10.00 %] - Dry Hop 7.0 Days
2.00 oz Simcoe [13.00 %] - Dry Hop 7.0 Days
I plan on mashing for an hour at around 155*F with 2 gallons and sparging with 1 gallon at 165*F for about 15 minutes going by Deathbrewer's process. My first partial mash efficiency was really low so I'm only shooting for 60% this time.
