I was an English major, I'll handle this... 25.5 total oz, times 75.5% alcohol= 19.25 oz alcohol in the bottle of 151 proof. X total oz, times 40% alcohol= 19.25 oz alcohol in the pitcher of resulting 80 proof rum. X = 19.25 divided by .40 = 48.1 total oz in the flagon of home-made 80 proof rum. 48.1 - 25.5= 22.6 oz water needed to reduce the original bottle of 151 proof to an 80 proof bucket of Guyanese rum. |
