So I am bottling my first batch and want to jump right into another batch and start fermenting. I went to my local LHBS and showed him this recipe and asked if I could do this in extract. I love this beer and wanted to try and make something similar at home.

So he didnt have the Marris Otter in the extract so I have 2 lbs of grain and will have to do a partial mash. He was also out of WLP002 but gave me WLP005 and said it would be fine.
So can anyone give me some tips of doing the partial mash. Right now I am planning on steeping the Marris Otter for 60 min at 145F. Then bring to boil and add the extract.
I know I have read about only adding some of the extract at the beginning of the boil and some at the end to keep it from getting too dark. How much at the beginning, half?
Im attatching my receipt of all the ingredients I picked up today. Also this will be my first time using liquid yeast.
