Nothing so needs reforming as other people's habits - Mark Twain
Tact is the knack of making a point without making an enemy / Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?

I've been wet tumbling for years, using ceramic media. I don't think you need a magic recipe. I add a little dish soap to the water, and sometimes will add Lemishine. If you only use the soap and water without the media, it cleans the brass but doesn't make it super shiny. It also won't get all the junk out of the primer pockets.
The first indication a bad guy should have that I'm dangerous is when his
disembodied soul is looking down at his own corpse wondering what happened.
I am in Ohio, and always have enough lead time to just let it dry laid out in the basement:
- Pistol brass without primers laid on their side could probably be loaded the next morning
- Rifle brass without primers laying on their side I give a couple days or so
- Rifle brass I am in a hurry for I will leave overnight vertical in a loading block (typically smaller quantities)
- Pistol brass with primers I leave on their sides on a towel for several days, sometimes I was doing more business travel I would make a point to do a batch before I left
ETA: All this is without pins, the only time I needed to use the pins was on some cheap brass that was so bad, when I got it I considered just discarding it. The pins made it look like they had just fallen out of the die, but haven't used them since.
