Help: questions about replacing brake fluid

I need to replace my brake fluid soon (like tonight). I've read all the DIY's I can find, but have the following questions.

1) Any suggestions on where to find a tube to put on the bleeder nipple ?

2) Will it be obvious when the old fluid is done, and the new fluid starts coming out? I'm ended up buying Motul 600 from Dave Zeckhausen.

3) I'll be using the "helper pumps the brakes" method. Any guess how many pumps are needed? Obviously it depends, but are we talking 10, or 100?


WARNING: If I run into trouble, I may be looking for people on IM to bother.
