Under pitch yeast, do not add oxygen to wort, and open ferment without temp control. This will increase the yeast esters that Hefes are known for.
Ferment in 2 - 6 gallon buckets. Pitch yeast and close lid with air lock for 12 hours.
Remove lid for 4-5 days to allow for open fermentation. Important to keep in a cool dark area that doesn't see very much traffic, and does not have an HVAC vent near. This will help keep the beer clean of foreign debris. The Krausen will protect the beer from most anything though.
Stir to recirculate the yeast. Transfer to secondary and close with airlock to finish up. This stir up will usually restart fermentation for it to finish off and blow off any additional oxygen that may have gotten into the beer. Store secondary at 68°. For an additional 5-7 days.
Crash cool and keg.
