I find my brew days are too long. Any problem with mashing one day, storing wort for several days then boiling and pitching on another day?

I've been reading up on sour mash techniques. I'm planning on doing one here soon. I'm hoping to get a PH meter for my Bday. So ya, as stated, that's not a good idea.
I found my brew days to be long too, but now I have done a major upgrade on my equipment that has helped a lot.
Blichmann pots with the sight gauges, Burners with high BTU, Thermapen (so I'm not messing with thermometers during the brew), Pumps, SS quick disconnects, Plate chiller with thermometer and oxygenation system built in... etc. It's helped me speed things up a lot. But I know it's not always an option.
I also speed things up by doing a batch sparge vs fly (but I prefer fly personally) also having everything ready the day before. Cleaning the fermenters, getting the ingredients separated and ready to go.. etc.
