I used to dry brass in the kitchen oven on the lowest setting but with the door open.
Ya don't have to cook them, just get them warm in a dry place and the water will evaporate off fairly fast.
One day,,,, I got in a hurry with a big batch of all my .45ACPs I had on hand,
and a bunch I had scrounged- some from questionable sources, and hadn't sorted or inspected very well.
I closed the door on the oven to speed up the process.............
After the 2nd live round cooked off,,,,,, All reloading activities were banned from the kitchen.
Now days, I lay them out in the sun on a towel.
