Im trying to make a clone of the Granville island winter ale.this might be to many grains to steep though, here is my recipe so far, please let me know.

Partial mash

Fermentables
-Munich Malt 2.0 lb
-Crystal 75 2.0 lb
-Vienna Malt 1.0 lb
-Chocolate Malt 8.0 oz
-pale LME 4.85 lb

HOPS
-Willamette 0.5 oz - boil
-Saaz 1.0 oz - boil
-Spalt 0.5 oz - finishing

YEAST
-English Ale Yeast WLP002 White Labs

I will be adding white or dark chocolate to the boil , making sure to do a good long boil to convert oils in chocolate as not to kill head retention.
I will add caramelized sugar at bottling as well as real vanilla extract.

I think i will be taking out some grain but what is a good amount to go with?

What other grain could I possibly mash with these and possibly cut down the amount of the others and the amount of LME ?
thanks
