I know this response is a little late.........

I have the unit that you are looking at, and have had great results from it. I use the recipe listed here:

http://www.6mmbr.com/ultrasonic.html

I follow this with an hour in the oven at the lowest temp available. Mine happens to be 170 degrees.

I have noticed that my cleaner only really cleans well, right over the transducer. Running multiple containers of casings seems to be more time consuming than running single containers back to back. I found some containers at the local cash-n-carry (supplies small restaurants and such) that were sold for dispensing dry condiments like pepper flakes for pizza. They look like a small coffee cup with a snap on strainer lid. Works like a charm.

I have noticed that a good cleaning does require that the brass is de-capped first.

This is very similar to the containers that I found. The picture isn't great, but you should get the idea.
