Parent site has a lot of useful calculators, including a dilution calculator.

It's simple.....screw the math.....just make ur brain hurt. Just add distilled water until ur thinga'majigy, (alcholmeter/hydrometer) tells you you have 45% , or whatever you're after.
No math, no pain....god, I love technology. But, hey if you're an Einstein type, you go fer it.

Adding water to alcohol can make it cloudy, using the calc isn't that hard
