    Brewed this before? Or first time? I am looking for good Oktoberfest beers for a party, and am brewing first test batches now anticipating a rebrew closer to game time.

    So you mashed 2 lbs of grain then added 6lbs of DME? What's the point? Seems like just use all grain if you're going to spend the time, unless you are just cleaning out the brew closet. I like the hop schedule though, I might try something like that on my next wheat.
