I did something similar when I first got into reloading, but I used water, simple green and vinegar. Put everything into a sealable container and shook the hell out of it, then let it sit. Then rinse well. The longer it sat in solution, the cleaner it got. I never used any salt.
If you do use this method, I suggest you DE-PRIME the brass first. Otherwise, moisture can get trapped in the primer pocket and you'll have to clean your primer pockets really good. I know this as it happened to me, although I didn't heat my brass in the oven, I simply laid it out in the sun to dry. No need heating up the house and wasting gas, when you have the sun, right?
Good luck.
