Going to try to answer all the questions:NC and Ken: Not sure if this is clear or not but when I say "wet hops" that means I didn't dry them out. I picked them during the boil and pretty much immediately threw them in the kettle. I've heard varying numbers on how much to divide the "wet" amount by to get the "dry" equivalent - usually a factor between 4 and 6. So NC, if you dried your hops we probably ended up with a similar amount of hops overall.Drez: These are cascade hops. I used pellet glacier for my bittering and for a 20 min addition. I used my wet hops in combination with some pellet cascade for a 10 and 1 minute addition. I divided the wet amounts by 6 and my hopping schedule was like this:1oz glacier @ 60min1oz glacier @ 20min1.8oz cascade @ 10 min (wet hops amount divided by 6)2oz cascade @ 1 min (wet hops amount divided by 6)other info:OG: 1.051FG: 1.01IBU: 41

According the the papers I've come across. Dividing by 8 is a little closer...but its still never the same.
