Has anyone ever used or considered drying cleaned brass cases on a low heat in an air frier? May sound like a silly question but temp and time can be altered to suit.

3rd on the dehydrator. I can bone dry 300 223 in an hour
i dry mine on my coffee machine
Compressed air, then in the hot water cupboard over night.
I don't get mine wet lol
I use the oven at 60-80 deg. At 100 deg I find the cases discolour.
Compressed air, then this jig which sits on a shelf under the heat pump.

I also use the oven on low heat. It just seems easier than having an extra piece of gear.

That block with the nails. Beats my annoying bread tray that caused bullets to fall into the bottom of my oven!
I shake out my wet cases each one, then i dry the outsides on a towel. Then it takes 15mins on 70deg c fan bake.
Cast iron skillet, oven at 100 degrees 30-40 minutes later dry brass.
