Run through three full cycles with a bit of a mixup between cycles, then drain, rinse quickly in fresh water, then leave to soak in a tub with 500ml water and a heaped table spoon of baking soda to neutralise and remaining vinegar.

    The good thing is that it doesn't require constant attention, so can be running in the background while decapping, resizing, making a cuppa, ... whatever. The big disadvantage is the boss saw how well it works and wants jewellery cleaned in it.
    Next you will want a SSM tumbler. Takes cleaning to a new level.

    I'll likely just stick with ultrasonic. I only want clean enough to make reloading easier, I'm not fussed with shiny.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
