adding 2 litres of plain water (boiled?) should get you pretty close if my understanding and maths are right.

Promash has a calculator for this and everything else you need to know, not bad for $25

51/30 x 3 = 5.1

Add 2.1 L of water.

so does beersmith, and the update to the all new 2.0 for 16 bucks is a steal.

That's great, who needs to muck around with software and spreadsheets when it can be that simple. This one will end up on a sticky note in the brewery, always comes in handy.
