Recipe Conversion

[JimiGibbs]

Can someone help me convert this to ProMash. I am very new to ProMash and I have entered it and want to compare the results from a professional to mine. I'm planning on using it for my first All-Grain brew next weekend. Thanks....

Not ProMash but I would say you need more base malt, especailly if this is your first AG
10lbs base only gets you to 1.051

Personally I'd dial down the black patent, but that's just a personal preference. Also, the yeast you have selected is not really appropriate for a Porter, I'd pick an English style myself.

Thanks for the input Superior and Jaded .... I'm really just looking to compare my entry with someone elses. The beersmith recipe helped a lot.
