Congratulations! I did 5 batches already I still can't even get 80% efficiency. Good work!
 
Congrats!
Oddly enough my first 3 beers on my new electric setup all were over 85% but as I made adjustments to improve the quality and body of the beer the efficiency dropped a bit.... my high efficiency beers were step mashed and came out thinner with less body than I like. hopefully this wont be true in your case.
 
After a good nights rest (it was 3 when I posted), I realized they probably meant final product size not pre boil water volume right??
My understand was higher efficiency meant you were hitting all your temps better, etc.
If that is the case, and it's post boil volume (5.5) then my actual % is 75 on the nose, and I'm not a sweet as I thought, haha.
