I do notice a slight hesitation when initially pressing the pedal, but only to clear water off the pad and rotor.

ME20's on a DD Road Car ???

ME20 is a full race pad and it simply won't bite at low temps. You'll travel 20 metres plus just to get the pads up to temp so they bite, which puts you 20m closer to an accident every time. MX72

If you are using them as track-day pads (only), ignore my comments.

For OP, if the pedal is falling to the floor, then replacing brake fluid and bleeding the system is the very first step ... it is a basic maintenance and safety issue.
