    That was for the 2003.

    The 2006 is similar, Min 311ml - Max 407ml.

    I believe standard is 375ml, but it is a "suit to style" measurement.

    Too much makes them harsh, too little makes them bottom out easily.
    Start with 375 and tune from there.

    2003 - 195ml

    2006 - 192ml

    I usually use 200ml and bleed the excess off.
