I will echo what has been said, for brain tanning there is no short cuts around thinning the hide, effort put in will be resulting product. Fleshing is not thinning the hide, that is where most fall short. Frost scrape methods give great results.
Especially important is removal of
ALL grease and fat so the braining can do its job, any grease, fat or oil and it is all for not.
