Welcome to HBT!
Aerating your wort before you pitch and re-hydrating your yeast might get you a few more points.

A good aeration puts enough oxygen in the wort for the yeast to reproduce and gets your fermentation going strong.

Re-hydrating your yeast will give you many more viable cells without stressing them by having to hydrate in wort.

Happy yeast = better fermentation.

What size packs of yeast are you using? The small 7 gram packs are not enough. The 11 gram packs are much better.

Were you using any unfermentable sugars? Such as lactose or highly caramelized sugar?
