Found it, information from the TIPS thread

Tumbling dirty and tarnished brass. I like deprime with universal deprimer, and presoak tarnished brass in a solution of:
1 gallon of water
1 quart of cider vinegar (might even add some fruit fresh [citric acid])
2 spoons full of laundry soap
1 spoon of table salt(helpsto keep from turning brass pink)

Soak in plastic jug (make sure they are fully submerged)for 1 to 12 hours. Drain on collander, dump on towel, roll around to remove excess liquid and tumble. Primer pocket Carbon is easily removed when you presoak.
