I used to do brakes (Rosenhaun) from the bottom up but dirty oil and particulates settle to the bottom of the lines - so pumping it right back up through the system doesn't seem the best way to me - besides I always made a mess in the cockpit AND at the bottom as a hose comes off from squeezing too hard on the pump handle. I was probably doing something wrong . . .
These days I just crack the bleeder and pour fresh oil into the reservoirs at the top. When I get fresh bright red oil coming out the bottom I tighten the nut and top off the reservoirs and I'm done. Gravity did my work for me. I've got a vaccuum pump for brakes but haven't needed it. Another tool for the collection.
