Starting Gravity

[Zygote]

I just brewed a 5-gallon batch of Ordinary Bitter. Receipe as follows:

5 lbs DME
1/4 lbs Carapils
6 0z Crystal 60L
.9 oz Challenger(boil)
.5 oz Fuggles (finish)

My SG 10 about 1.058 at 80 deg, so correcting for temp, that's about 1.065

I figured about 1.045

This is my first batch in quite a few years, so I feel brand new at this. Does this seem right?

I think it's +.002 for every +10 F. That's 1.062 by my calculations.

With almost 6 lbs of fermentables I would have guessed 1.048 (around .8 per pound).
