The biggest part of coolant is inside the radiators and reservoir, radiator makers have this information on their site usually, for reservoir it should be the same.
And whatever is left should do about 0.5 to 1l depending on the lenght of tuning and such.
If you’re in an area with half decent water and not full of limescale, nothing beats the kitchen tap for a bit of rad rinsing. A shower hose also works well for directing water pressure.
1L of fluid should be plenty for your loop but it’s handy to have an extra bottle just in case you spill some and/or need to do some maintenance later.
Sadly I'm near the bottom of the water-table, just above the sea - I've read that distilled water can absorb carbon dioxide turning it slightly acidic?
