I'm a little late to the game but ready to play!
Thx
I brewed this 12 days ago and everything seems to be going well except for one thing. It is still fermenting at a decent rate. The airlock is still bubbling about every 6 seconds. Any words of wisdom?

Just use a high flocculating ale yeast with good attenuation. S-05, wlp001, 1056, etc. and make a BIG starter. Aerate well after cooling and you should be set.
That is a pretty high FG. I dont think it had finished when you kegged.

Any suggestions on a good yeast to use for this recipe and for a first time lagerer
Oktoberfest is a lager so stick with whatever the recommended Oktoberfest yeast is. Probably something like German lager?
