Are you slackening off the bleed nipple properly? This might help

Turn bleed nipple about a quarter turn. Have the brake lever horizontal. Cap off and top up as needed don't let this run dry. Then with your tube on bleed nipple watch for the bubbles until they clear. Then tighten the nipple up. Job done. I use Citroen suspension fluid litre bottle 3 quid from car shop.
