I'm going to try this recipe this weekend as a BIAB. I'm hoping to get about 70% efficiency.

.75 oz. Magnum at 60 minutes
.25 oz. Magnum at 15 minutes

1 lb. Biscuit
1 lb. Crystal 80
2 lbs. Honey Malt
4 lbs. Vienna
5 lbs. Pale Malt 2 row

I'm shooting for a 6 gallon batch and a starting gravity of approximately 1.052. My question is this though: Is 2 lbs. of honey malt too much? I've never brewed an amber before, and I've never made a beer that showcases honey malt. It is about 15% of the grain bill here. Should I dial it back? If so, how much back?

Thanks everyone!
