I only mash the grains that require mashing. The rest I add about ten minutes before vorlof. (last stir).Keeps the PH of the mash lower. I think that helps as well.

I adjusted my barley crusher out(open) a little.
I fly sparge. I think the lactic acid (in the mash)helps to get the efficiency up as well.
I also use a special false bottom. It's slotted instead of having all holes. Cost more but well worth it.
I really can't believe the efficiency I'm getting either but it's happening every time.
I guess everything is in the sweet spot as far as equipment etc.
Thanks for the note.

brewdog...looks like you're getting some great efficiency with your sparging--do you batch or fly sparge? if so, what steps do you take? i'm struggling to get better efficiency w/ my mashes (fly sparge). any advice would be appreciated. your recipes look tasty!
