I never pedal bleed anymore. Uses too much fluid and it is not unusual to have to do it several times to get a solid pedal. When I did pedal bleed I closed the bleeding valve before the pedal got to the floor. Pumped brake pedal up and did the same process over and over. Not unusual to see clear fluid for several cycles and then see more air bubbles.

Since brakes are rather important I think it is imperative to purchase a good quality pressure bleeder and follow the process in the ECS video posted. I have used a vacuum bleeder that was very effective also. I never use the same color fluid when bleeding. Shouldn't have any problems getting the brakes bled in all but the unusual circumstances.
