You guys are all making a incorrect assumption. ~ The density of the mix does not change with the addition of water. Problem is the density does change.
I suspect the OP is measuring the concentration (%) using a hydrometer ~ that is inferring the % from the density.
Best the OP add about 1/2 the suggested water & then slowly add more until the required density (%) is obtained.
