I have never annealed my brass and I'm not sure how...  Maybe I should start doing this...  What is the process?  I have annealed steel before, so I am familiar with the basic theory, but just not with brass! Thanks in advance! Paul

There are several techniques.  Two I've used is to stand fired cases in 1" of water (to protect the case head from excess heat) and aim a propane torch at the case mouth.  Just as the mouth starts to get cherry red, tip the case into the water.  Alternately, hold the case head in your fingers and heat the case mouth.  When the case head gets hot to the touch, drop the case in water.
