We dry camp 99% of the time in USFS/State CGs in ID, WY, and MT and on BLM land for a couple of months in AZ in the winter.
Our unit has 80G FW, 50G Gray and 50G Black. Taking 2 showers/day the Grey tank is our limiting factor (7 to 9 days) when the FW tank is still 1/3 full. We wish that the Manufacturer had installed a 60-70G Gray and a 30-40G Black tank, that way we could use most all of the 80G FW before dumping/refilling the FW tank.
You may already do everything, and have better ideas.
Use to dish pans, one with soapy water, the other to catch the rinse. Dump the dirty soapy water in the toilet instead of down the sink. This will move a gallon or 2 of water from grey to black. Save the captured rinse water. Next time you need to do dishes, boil some clean water, add it and some soap to the saved to wash in. This keeps a little out of grey, and in the fresh.
Put a bucket in shower to catch what you can of that water. Use that to fill the toilet before you deposit solids. Save fresh and grey tank capacity..
