Brake started feeling a bit weird, I guess five years between bleeds is okay.
Figured I should look up the proper procedure, but remembered who I am, to hell with proper procedure!

Its puts the fluid in the hole, and sucks it out the hose again.

It took me a solid 10 bleeds to get my rear brake air free. Best of luck to you.
I was a bit worried as the brakes felt terrible, but it was because of new pads and an unfaced frame.
At the end I pulled the top hose out and the master cyl looked empty so I just dripped fluid in, brake seems fine to me, but my standards are probably pretty low.

The only issue I really have with the Magura calipers is the adjustment slots aren't wide enough, all of mine are hard left.
