It's very easy to see if grease is coming out the back side of the seal. I will continue to SLOWLY add grease while rotating the tire until clean grease comes out the front, wipe off excess grease and replace cap.
With electric brakes I would hand pack for sure but with disk brakes it's not a problem.
The problem arrises when people just BLAST grease into the spindle with a air powered grease gun and don't rotate the tires.
If this system fails I will most likely go to the oil bath system.
