Ray Daniels has a VMO chapter in his book, Designing Great Beers, for Vienna, Marzen and O-fest. These are anywhere from 7 to 16 SRM, but the S.G. is much lower at 1.046 - 1.056 and top out at 30IBUs for the group.
That was my point I guess, because I have DSB, I haven't put the numbers in but apparently this beer comes in closer to Maibock then?
I know Bug clarified his mistake (it happens all the time to me, that is why I asked) just wondering what the numbers are for this recipe. I guess I will just take the time to plug in.
EDIT: So I plugged it in with a 70% efficiency he hits 1.056, high side for a Marzen, and 8.6 SRM, low side for a Marzen but within the range. It is short on the OG for a Maibock. OK, this style lesson is over.
