Sounds like a good idea that would eliminate unneeded brake
bleeding.  Maybe a manufacturer would be willing to let you in on the info.

Absent that, we have heard on this list that a high quality brake fluid
(motul 600 has specifically been mentioned) will last an entire season (4
or 5 months?) in the SER cup challenge.

So, measure a freshly opened bottle, bleed your system and test it again in
4 or 5 months and record the change.

That might be a good ball park.

How expensive is this test equipment?

         Sounds like time to patent your invention.  ;)

I wonder if water collects in specific places in your brake system that
might make it impossible to simply test your master cylinder reservoir.

Keep thinking! good idea!
