If you deprime before you wet wash, it would dry fast. Still I hate to see water hides in the primer pocket. So either I leave the brass overnight to dry or if I want to load right away. I have the FA "food dryer" style dryer. 20 to 30 mins and they are bone dry.
Get a large food dryer from garage sale or online and use large trays to spread the brass. It will go quick.
I can dry 500 9mm cases or so at the same time.

Re: Brass Cleaning

It takes 90mins max in SS wet wash to get like new results.
I use only Car Wash and Wax (Meguire's) and Very hot water.
I also switched from SS Pins to SS shreds.
I dry on old beach towel and no spots on the cases, and said cases do not get tarnished with time.

Re: Brass Cleaning

Once, I saw the first batch out of my Arsenal Rotary tumbler, I never looked back. I used Hornady Ultrasonic cleaner before, now it is collecting dust unless I need to clean some gun parts.

I have both SS pins and SS shreds, both works very well. If you clean straight wall pistol cases just stick with SS pins.
