[QUOTE="Alastair, post: 12423, member: 13"] Just to help people working on different percentages the way I work it out is this - I start with a theoretical ten liters. So at 85%, that would mean 8.5 liters of pure FA. So to dilute 8.5 liters FA to 50% (1/2 strength), we would need the same amount of water, ie, 8.5 liters of water to make it up to a total of 17 liters total. The mix is already ten liters counting the water that is in it, so we add another 7 liters water. There is also a web page where it can be calculated by a (probably better) way here [URL='https://www.distilling-spirits.com/tools/calculations/diluting-alcohol/']Alcohol Dilution Calculator - How to Dilute a Moonshiner[/URL] [/QUOTE]
