This is our first all grain attempt so we stuck with a simple 1 step infusion mash. It's not done fermenting yet, but I could tell from the taste/consistency of the wort and the feeling of the whole thing that it would be the best one yet. I am a big fan of hop oil to get that great dry hopped aroma/flavor without the mess of dryhopping.
