Notes

used a bit more water than planned and collected a lot more, probably due to running hose to bottom of cooler under grain bag, eliminating dead space. This may explain high efficiency.
Additionally, squeezed hop bag and got almost a half gallon of extra wort.
Or maybe I really had much lower ph and that made a difference.
Final note- initially measured OG at 1.07, then mixed wort and got 1.062
