I was getting around 60% efficiency, until I changed to a mashout step. This increased my overall mash time to around 90 min and my efficiency is now around 75%. Basically, I mash in, leave it for 60 min, ramp up to around 78c, which takes 10-15 min, sit it at that mash out temp for 15 min, then pull the bag and squeeze while raising to a boil. I bought my mill off a fellow AHBer who had two marks set on the gauge which he said he would run it through the coarser setting first then re-mill through the finer setting. I've only ever ran it through the finer setting and it seems to come out quite fine.
