How much brake fluid and what type for @T?

I'm persuaded this will have been covered somewhere here already, but I can't seem to find it in the search.

Merely ordered a motrax scarcely bleeder brake bleeding valve (looks like a purposeful little device) and my next inconsistent with is to buy some brake fluid for when it arrives.

Does anyone have any thorough recommendations for the type of brake fluid to get, and how much would be needed to change the fluid in an RD04 Africa twin (front and back)?

I'm not impaired to get too much as I've heard it doesn't keep well, so don't demand to be wasting money on chemicals that I'll necessity to dispose of unused if I can refrain from it.

I know it probably recommends this in the haines vade-mecum, but from what I can gather there are newer silicone based fluids convenient now that don't absorb water or ideal corrosion, so not sure if I should be using one of those in place of (the drawback with those seems to be that the leave the brakes appreciation spongy even when bled correctly which sounds a bit worrying but this is the first measure I've done it so not sure if that's even a problem).

Any tips or favourites, or should I even-handed pick up the cheapest from halfords?
