If you want nothing but a solution that is suitable, this lyman cleaning brass is certainly a right investment. Cleaning with ultrasonics requires the correct solution for the correct cleaning application. The brass comes out looking as brand new brass that has never been fired. It works fine, but you can make your own citrus or vinegar base solution for a few pennies a batch. It can be filtered to remove large pieces of debris.
The temperature is regulated by the unit, the number of pieces of brass, and the degree of contamination will have an effect.
