Soft brakes after installing a new master cylinder

I just put in a brand new master cylinder today and bled out all the lines. The pedal is a good bit softer than it was before the new master cylinder. Before I get under there an bleed them all again, is there anything else I need to check?

Here's a rundown of recent brake related repairs/problems.
  • mid may - brakes seized up on highway and ruined the rear rotors, calipers, and pads
  • mid may - replace rotors, calipers, flexible(rear) lines and pads. Bled the system.
  • mid may until now- Brakes performing normally with normal pedal stiffness.
  • this week- Brakes seized up again on highway but slowed down much sooner to save new components. (I hope!)
  • Install new master cylinder, bled lines.
