Pretty much the same here, except I start with the jar empty. No real need for fancy one way valves or anything since you can reach the bleed screw with one hand and the brake lever with the other. They bleed pretty easily even if you accidentally run the m/c too low and suck a bubble in from the top.
One tip is to start with the pistons fully retracted, less space in the caliper to air to be sitting.
