Hello all
I will be doing my first extract tomorrow and found an old speckled hen clone which I am basing my first extract brew. To me the hops look off but I am inexperienced in extract. It is as follows

23 litre extract batch - 15 litre Stockport for boiling.

3kg pale malt extract

500g Maris otter
350g caramel/crystal malt

100g Lyles golden syrup

50g challenger @ 60
7g challenger @ 15
7g east kent goldings @ 15
28g east kent goldings @ 1

Nottingham yeast.

Any advice will be appreciated.

Watch out for boil overs , take your time and take notes .
