Custom brushes in LR Classic -- how to go back to default

I have many custom brushes.   When I select one and then want to go to default brush I have to scroll down a huge list to select default.  Is there a quicker way?

Correct answer Rob_Cullen

"brushes into a group?" - No.  It can only be a single 'flat' alpha-numeric sorted list. Thus the reason that I name my User Brush Presets with leading numbers- 001, 012, 022, etc, so I can 'group' them by numbers.

Yes, simply click on [Reset].  The brush name  changes to (edited) but all adjustments are returned to default.

Also you can check the box to [Reset Sliders Automatically]  and every time you start a new Brush, the settings are zeroed back to default. Then you can alter or select a new brush preset.

Or- Define you own 'Reset' brush with a name that will sort at the top of your user presets-

Rob_Cullen  Thanks.  Is there a way to collapse multiple brushes into a group?
