NEW High-Volume Cartridge Brass Drying Machine
Note, this is a limited-time offer with Free Solution (August 2015).
So, what do you do with wet cartridge brass after ultrasonic cleaning or wet-tumbling with stainless media? Most of us just dump the brass into a plastic strainer or a colander, shake the casings a little to get the water out, then let the brass air-dry on a tray. We don’t recommend drying brass in a hot oven. If, by mistake, you leave your brass in the oven too long (or set the temp too high), you may slow-anneal your brass, which can end up weakening the brass.
If you can’t wait for your brass to air-dry naturally, there is another solution. Frankford Arsenel now offers a brass dryer that can dry up to 1000 pieces of .223 Rem brass or 2000 pieces of 9mm pistol brass. Yes, here’s yet another gadget for your man cave/reloading center. This unit employs forced air convection heating to dry brass quickly without water spots. This “Platinum Series” Brass Dryer features five (5) removable drying trays so you can dry different types of brass (without mixing) at the same time. Frankford says the max air temperature in the machine is about 160° F — that won’t over-cook your brass. And the “forced air flow” system distributes heat evenly.

Looks remarkably similar to a food dehydrator. Hmmm.
Except that your wife will not murder you if you use this gizmo, as opposed to her food dehydrator.
I use an air compressor to blow out my brass after ultrasonic cleaning. Boring to do but it goes pretty quickly – I can dry out 200 rifle cases in about 18 to 20 minutes.
I just throw mine in the regular vibratory case cleaner with walnut media. All the friction generates a bit of heat and it dries it off quickly and give it a polish.
Hmmm… gadgets galore. I simply fill old black Remington 50-cartridge blocks with wet cases, add another block on top to hole ‘em in, then blast ‘em with compressed air for a minute or two to get the water off. An hour in the sun or on top of my dehumidifier takes care of the rest.
My wife has about 3 old hair dryers pick the hottest one and dry your brass in a plastic pail takes about 5 minutes or less for 300 pieces of 6.5.
