For example, i have the idea to mix Balkan 88% with 33% of calcium chloride (the mixed is done in fact xD), and the mix is 25% of vodka and 75% of CaCl2. Then, because i have read here and in other places that the calcium chloride have results if you use at least a 20%, i have used more percentage in the mix to obtain the following: 25% more or less of CaCl2, 22% of vodka (because rising the cantity of CaCl2 the vodka is lower) and the rest, i mean, the 53% is water.
I don't know if i have explained fine, but if you use for example, 95% Everclear, mixing it with a CaCl2 at least 20%, you will have a mix with around 25% or so of alcohol.
Perhaps i am wrong, but i think SplitDik said some similar before (i am not sure).
P.D: Yes, one page before this, down.
If I mix 30% liquid CACL with 95% Alcohol in equal parts then the result would be a diluted CACL. However, I'm thinking if I mix it in a ratio of 3 parts CACL to 1 part alcohol, the result then would be within the needed range? No?
