I brewed a punkin ale, used the puree, and like many here have said, holy trub loss!! I lost close to 1 gallon when I racked to 2dy (normally I don't but I do find a 2dy gets a little clearer beer and this one needed some serious clearing). Anyway, I was worried about toom much head space and this beer was already higher ABV than I really wanted at 7.8%, the OG was 1.073 the SG at 2dy racking was 1.014, so I added 3 quarts water. How do I calculate the ABV now? I can't begin to figure it out. It is now about 5 gallons, btw.
