I sort my range brass by caliber and head stamp. Then deprime each lot.
I ultrasonic wash small lots with a few drops of Dawn Platinum and half a teaspoon of Lemon Shine. Occasionally I may cut the water with white vinegar, but so far I can’t really tell if the vinegar helps. Then rinse.
Brass comes out clean and shiny. Some pieces may still have some minor discoloration. I don’t care about looks. What matters to me is that the cases are clean.
I dry in the oven at a lower heat. Then size in a carbide die, no lube.
