This is getting no traction at the other guitar and car forums I'm on, so I figured I'd post it here. It's my first partial grain/extract attempt, and I need to keg it this week. Any advice or feedback is appreciated. If it doesn't suck, I'll post a killer chili recipe to go with it for football season

FWIW, here is what I have in the fermenter right now:
Grains:
2lbs - Pale Ale Euro, cracked
1lb - CL60, cracked
8oz - Chocolate, cracked
a negligible 0.85 oz of Roasted Barley, cracked
4oz - Carapils
Steeped grains for 1hr @ 150-160 degrees
added extract - 3lbs Gold Light DME, 3lbs unhopped amber LME and boiled for 1hr total
-@15 minutes I added ~1/2 of a 1oz package of Cluster pellet hops 7.9% AA
-@45 minutes I grated maybe 1/2 tbsp of orange peel into the wort for aroma and added 1/2 tbsp of irish moss
added Wyeast 1007 liquid German Ale Yeast to the wort after everything was chilled.
