I use mine dry also. By this, I mean fill up the reservoir to the brim, and use the bleeder pump to pump low pressure air to the reservoir. Never have to clean it, just have to refill the reservoir before it hits the min level. I usually draw as much old fluid out of the reservoir prior to adding new. I found a really nice product that will draw the fluid out of the reservoir, and also hook to the bleed valves, allowing no drips and no air to be pulled into the caliper. Its seems silly to pay for a bottle and a hose, but it's perfect.

Last note:
The Boxster brake job was easy for me. My Mazdas were not. If your worried your bleed screws might be seized, heat just the screw with a propane torch for 15 sec, then tap with a hammer. Spray with PB Blaster, and then use a good fitting 6 point socket to break them loose. I figured this out the hard way braking the first bleed screw I attempted on both of my Mazdas. One cost me a new caliper.
