Bleeding the brakes

Tonight I bled the brake system. Following the video from Berringer, everything went fairly smoothly. I had unbolted the bottom of each cylinder so I could keep them horizontal through the process. I started with the pilot side (furthest away from the reservoir), then once the overflow bottle was about half full, I switched to the passenger side. Throughout the process I was raising and lowering the cylinders, and pumping them to purge air. I ended up doing the whole thing twice, being careful not to introduce air when reconnecting the pump, to try to get all the air out. The end result feels about right, there’s good pressure on both sides, on both pedals, and it feels pretty even. I’ll let it sit overnight and see how it feels in the morning.
