So the musts og was 1.18 ending after the primary with an acceptable 1.06 (going for a sweeter mead). After racking on some oak chips and adding a gallon of water (i lost a bit from the yeast cake and fruit cap) the SG was at 1.05
So my question is do I take this as a negative gain in terms of abv? Ie: 1.18 to 1.06 yields approximately 16% and with the change from 1.06 to 1.05 would that mean my final abv is 15% +/- .4%?
