Wine alcohol dilution?
I have 12 gallons of wine with a 15% alcohol content. If I add 3
gallons of water will the wine then contain 12% alcohol? Thanks, James |

Looks right to me, but personally I wouldn't go that far with a dilution. 13% would be my minimum. You'll need to add acid too if you add water, unless the starting pH was really low. Tom S |
