i don't think i've ever had brass get holes in it, even on really dirty stuff. Something sounds contaminated. What material are you welding and what rod are you using?

flood it with filler rod. 
The filler rod is going to act as a quenching mechanism as well as add structure the the metal. Don't go overkill obviously, but it worked for me.
