That's 16.6% not 20%. 60l of fuel, of which 10l is meth, so 100*10/60 = 16.6%.
Important thing is to use the same mix as it is mapped for; or use a flex fuel sensor and an ECU that supports it
Once you have settled on a mix (e.g. 12l in the tank, then brim the tank) if you always follow that same regime (e.g. always add 12l and always brim) the methanol percentage does remain the same

If you're running it all the time and have 10l of fuel left (say just before fuel light) that 10l will have 8l V-Power, 2l methanol.
Drop in 10l meth, 40l V-Power (or fill) and you will end up with the 20% mix of 12l meth and 48l V-Power.
But yes, the first time you fill up 12l meth in the tank and brim. Thereafter, 10l meth and 40l V-Power to keep the ratio at 20%. Putting 12l into each tank when already running meth will result in too high a meth mixture.
