Soft brake pedal

Reposted to correct forum, sorry first time...

I replaced the front and rear brake pads on our 2003 Cooper. I bought the red pagid pads from Bavarian Auto Sports. Bled the brake system and now the brake pedal feels soft and travels about half the distance to the floor. They perform well but just don't feel good.
I would appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks

Wrong forum, but probably needs to be bled again.
