I have that same dehydrator/dryer, but use a Lyman sonic cleaner with heater. Just wish they would come out brighter. I'm way behind on cleaning brass.

I think if I do one more step with corn Cobb it come out brighter. Don’t think I will have the time for that. The insides come out clean.

i do 2 different cleaning methods.....
1) Iosso chemical, then rinse, then use a Lyman dehydrator...minutes to clean, then i set the dehydrator up to 2 hours
2) vibratory walnut media cleaning......at least 1 hour to clean
3) polishing is via Lyman corncob for up to 1 hour.
i do either system of cleaning, as i am cleaning a gun, or reloading ammo, as i got the time.
then i use large 2lb coffee cans to keep the prepped brass, ready to be reloaded.
