I won't swear to anything, but it appeared that bubbles in the small
diameter line were carried along with the fluid into the caliper.  Once
inside the relatively large chamber of the caliper, they eventually rose to
the top and out the bleed valve.

Don't recall how far I opened the bleed valve, but I don't think it's
critical.  Maybe a full turn.
