I'm on my 5th AG recipe and prior to this batch I've always hovered at about the 60% mark. I just purchased a Barley Crusher and today hit 70% on my English IPA (from Brewing Classic Styles). I thought the crush I was getting at the LHS wasn't fine enough and sure enough that was it.

That's all, just happy!

Cool man. I've been considering getting a mill, but i can't decide. I typically order from Austin Homebrew Supply or go to my LHBS and they seem to have pretty good mills. I typically hit around 65% or more.
 
Nj Man, today was my first 85+ Efficiency, was pretty happy. Make sure the big thing that helped me was on the sparge water make sure it is as close to 170 F as possible, helped a tun for me.
