I'll be brewing my Hefe Oat tomorrow. I have never steeped oats before. My brewmaster told me to steep at 160F for 30 minutes. Then you have to sparge. That's where I'm a little iffy about. Do I sparge into another container with water and is the temperature the same or different?

You're not really sparging, you're just rinsing the grains. I would just pull the bag out, put it in a colander or a strainer or something, and pour a few cups of hot water over the grains and let it drain right back into the pot.
