I've been hitting around 55-65%, but my new Barley Crusher is on it's way and I'll be using the 5.2 stabilizer. Hopefully I can get this number up.

Right around 85% usually. A boiling water infusion to raise the mash to mashout temp, then vorlauf and drain first runnings. Sparge water is split into two batches, stirring after each addition (requires vorlaufing again to set the grain bed).
