While waiting for the last one to reheat, I could work on a different one...until it cooled and the I'd resubmerging it and grab another. I need to stress that I used very hot water (I live in an old house with very hot water) so hot that could not stand to have my heads in it for more than the half second it takes to pull a new part out...
