I ended up with about 6.5 gal in the kettle post boil, a little more than I wanted. So I loss a couple points of OG adjusted it on beertools, and it said about 61 ibu's with the extra volume. This was one of the first times I fooled with my water. I added about 4 grams of gypsum to the boil to bring out that hop crispness I love about Alpha King. I was just freaked when I tasted it right after I chilled it. Now it smells and tastes great, and I hope to bottle sometime this week. I will let you know how it turns out.
