Use the Pressure bleeder to pressurize the system without putting any fluid in the bottle and bleed the brakes. Then use a clamp to clamp off the hose when depressurizing the bottle and this will keep Fluid from traveling back into the Pressure bottle. Remember to add to fluid back in the reservoir.
This.

I hate wasting expensive SRF fluid and hate the thought of "reusing" fluid that has been sitting in the bleeder bottle. I can usually do two corners before having to refill the master cylinder reservoir, so only really need to disconnect the pressure bleeder once. I haven't worried about a clamp, just unscrew the bleeder top slowly while under pressure.
