For years my annealing has been done with the use of a propane tank and holding the cases in my bare hands. I hold the cases with a count from 1-thousand up to 7-thousand and then drop it into a bowl of water for quenching. Crude but seems to have worked for quite a few years for me.

There will be no quenching. It will just cool the case. Brass can not be hardened like steel or iron (no carbon in it). It can be work hardened which is why you anneal it so it doesn't crack. I'm a former metallurgist for a transmission company. The templaq method gets you in the correct annealing temperature range so you don't over anneal it.
