You can do the same thing by pushing the pedal down just a little, and pumping it. I worked for a guy right after I got out of the Navy who showed me that gem. We had a power bleeder, and I preferred to use it to completely purge the system of fluid when I changed a master cylinder, but this cheapskate would do this "mini-pumping" instead. He would do it while I went off to other paying work, so I couldn't complain too much about it. Of course, the master had been properly bench bled first.
