I've always bled my brakes when trimming the hoses as it's a 3 minute job.

so you have a spare plastic bag?

You facetious pillock, I've half a mind not to point out that you've mistaken "Short hose" for meaning the shortened brake hose. It isn't, you need a section of hose (Different internal diametre to brake hose) to go from the bleed nipple to the pot/waste bag. But then I remember that you're a dick and think I should withhold that information.
