How much brake fluid?

I'm planning on purchasing ATE Super Blue brake fluid from Outmotoring.com. How much do I need to purchase? Thanks!

I'd buy 2L for a complete flush, IMHO... I've gotten by with 1 before, but if this is the first time you're doing it, I'd get 2 just in case!

I just did a complete flush with a pressure bleeder an a single can was more than enough. You might want to get a second can of gold fluid for the next flush and save on shipping.

When Minvader and I did ours we each used about 3/4 a liter per car and it was our fist time doing brakes on MINIs
