How To Build a Storage Room With Automatic Sorter in Minecraft 

Ah, the standard sorting system. And yet, this video contains a lot of useful tips that I didn't know about yet. Thank you guys so much!

for those in 1.19.3+ using the hopper method: to avoid items getting stuck in the hoppers, you need to move the top layer UP by ONE BLOCK so the redstone torch from the top layer does not touch the hopper below (locking items from moving). you do NOT need to move the chests in the top layer up; they can stay in the same spot, you will just need an additional hopper for each module to reach the chests. there might be an easier way to solve this, but this is what worked for me.

2:15 Quick tip: If you dont want to leave 41 items in the first slot , you can add 11 filter items in the other four slots for the same effect. It sould leave 1 item in the first slot. This only works on modules with no others right next to them.

One of my favourite channels...... straight to the point with no begging for subcribers..... Respect

Thank you both for all the videos that you make. When I see a SkulkerCraft upload notification it makes me happy. Keep doing what you do great!

Thank you so much! I was worried about having too many items and them not being able to get into the hoppers fast enough, but your timing system at the input saved me!

I have been here. Please upvote so people can see that I have been here.

Water paths work better if they are adjacent to the hoppers as opposed to on top. Just have the water stream bend before going to the sorters and make sure that wall is all homey blocks. If done correctly, the items will be partially over the hoppers in the water stream. By setting it up this way, it fixes 2 problems outlined here. 1. You won't need a gap for the water streams. 2. 16 stack items sort perfectly fine.

Quick note: 3.15 I found that in 1.19.3, you must build the two sorters directly on top of each other. Other wise, if you are connecting them with hoppers, the items will get stuck in the first hopper near a redstone torch.

Nice summary. Your first design has inspired my world's storage system. Tysm. :)

Thank you finally a sorting system that doesnt have insanely complex redstone that no one can decipher unless you are shulkercraft thanks man keep it up

If you are having trouble with items getting stuck in the hoppers at the beginning with the water method you need to rearrange the water elevator so that it turns a corner before any items reach a hopper. This way the items are on the edge of the hoppers.

3:51 tip- instead of glass blocks surrounding the water, you can use honey blocks so that they align themselves in a better way

Just been researching this sort of stuff recently, getting my head around it in order to build an automated storage system because my current little minecraft home is chock full of chests and shulker boxes of stuff. Thanks for the tips on chest and redstone displacement for 2 or 3 tiered storage.

This was a great breakdown. Impulse’s sorting system is like the gold standard. This was a great overview of how to build off of it

I always use an alternating pattern with that sorting system because I like using water streams to transport items and as you metnioned it can cause the sorters nearby to break so when you alternate the pattern a bit with 2 additional blocks, nearby sorter tiles aren't affected anymore but it makes the build 1 block higer and reach 1 block farther into the back but at that small expense you can make it stable forever and overflow won't affect the sorting

Thankyou so much bro this is the first time i have ever built an auto sorter in minecraft

Amazing! I've been looking for a good tutorial for my server. Can't wait to add this!

For the outer curves I’ve seen red stone brainiacs like Ilmango use exactly two (2) sea pickles on one block to align the items properly using a water sorting system. Idk if you can place them on glass but if you have an automatic shulker smasher sorter it’s probably useful to incorporate.

Love your videos, always so creative and helpful! Your tutorials have a wonderful feel to them, as well, not too fast and not too slow.

6:21 here you can double the input system's efficiency by putting a double chest with 2 distincts hopper lines linked to the dropper That way, the dropper will always drop something in the one directly above it At the top, you can simply link the last dropper into a water stream to avoid clogging

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR LIKE 3 YEARS NOW THANK YOU SOO MUCH

I was literally gonna build this yesterday, but i couldn’t find a tutorial i liked. thank you!

For anyone having troubles with the lower row of hoppers: at 3:26 in the video where he points out that you need an extra hopper, you actually need 2 extra hoppers for it to work so the redstone torches don‘t interfere with the lower row of hoppers

for 16 item sorter you can put 4x multiple random items instead of 1, so your 41 limit will drop. so then you can use 1 item as item filter and also filter 16 item stacks

this video contains a lot of useful tips that I didn't know about! .This was a great breakdown. Impulse’s sorting system is like the gold standard. This was a great overview of how to build off of it.

I just finished my storage system! If I had waited a little bit it would have been so much easier to do it with this tutorial lol

A perfect underground base in my opinion is the best location for this storage system

I like how you made it on survival instead of other videos

Beautiful. Now this can be an elegant thing in my world

It's too easy, thank you, this is my favorite channel

I have fallen in love with shulkercraft videos :P edit: I watch even the stuff I already know cause he always adds useful info (water = more lag than hoppers, i searched for hours on google with no definite answer!...)

Quick tip: Mumbo Jumbo has 2 mechanisms to sort unstackables: one with only redstone and a more recent one with allays. Just type unstackable sorter mumbo jumbo in the search box and it should pop up. Pro of the old design is it doesn't require allays, which are difficult to find, so it's alot simpler ti build. The downside is that it cannot distinguish between different kinds of unstackables (i.e. gold sword from chainmail chestplate), so you're limited to filtering stackables from unstackables only, and not sorting everything. Hope you find ut useful!

Your explanation helped me alot. Ive been looking for a single chest sorter for poppies for my iron farm

A lot of people seems to be asking about sorting multiple items into one chest. There a a lot of designs called Multi item sorters(MIS) that do exactly this. They are actually cheaper considering how many items they can sort. And, it`s worth your time watching someone who actually invented the contraption and knows, how it works. Shulkercrafts survival series are cool, making tutorials on someone elses farm is not

Waw, this is going to be useful to build the storage room of the seuvival world of our channel!! Thank you guys!!!

Great video thankyou! Helped me fix my system on my world with my nephew.

Guys if the items get stuck on the last hopper just put 3 sea pickles on the water source, the items should get a little stuck on the pickles, but they should float and get over the pickles so they have more height to get over the last hopper's ledge, that worked for me atleast.

For rare items that are usually less than 1 stack you can use just one "filter" hopper as a storage. As a bonus you can have up to five different slots for five item types With water distributing system it can be built even in quiet early game. Without iron farms.

You can use a sea pickle to line the items for the hopper

Im totally gonna use this with the sophisticated backpacks mod 😁 and has even better capacity potential

i like how just storing items is one of the most important part of this game

with the water option: you don't need the space after 8 blocks. If u just use another way to stop the water and not the pressureplate. E.g. open fence gates or signs. They will not make a redstone output once an item is flowing through it, though making it possible for a no-gap-chest layout :)

you really posted this 10 minutes after I finnaly learnt it

This is really needed for my hard-core world ty

Wait that is so creepy. Me and my friend were discussing and building an automatic storage like 12 hours ago, and you uploaded this video 4 hours after we went to sleep.

Actually you can sort 16 stack items, just put items in hopper like 1 38 1 1 1, also you dont have to waste 41 of item you want to sort, just make it 1 41 1 1 1 (first "1" is 1 item you want to sort, the rest is random named item)

I love the break down of this video.

I was just thinking to build a good storage system in my world n there we go a new upload

wow really cool ! Thank you shulkercraft from finland !

NO WAY you posted this video... Litteraly yesterday I looked for storage room designs and a month ago it happened the same thing but for the best minecraft armor... Pretty sure these guys can read in our viewer's mind... Thanks ! 😄

You don't need to spend 41 of your precious items! You just need 45 items in the hopper. So you can just dump 44 dirt and 1 of your item to be sorted! You just won't need to sort dirt. Unless you rename 4 items to sort your dirt first in your first hopper!

Thank you so much i am just building new storage room in my world

Video idea, get 1 double chest full for every wood item or every item that can be crafted by only wood, (you can use bamboo for sticks because sticks can be crafted from wood) get a double chest of every boat, every door type etc.

Thanks for this video I know what to build in my world now

0:34 to 0:40 sounds like he is rapping. bars

If you use 44 of the item you don't want to sort it works as well, for example, instead of 41 diamods, you leave 41 baked potatoes (and of course the other 3 slots completed, for a total of 44 placeholder items).

omg didnt know implusetv made this! that's awesome!

Aight, I need the FASTES sorting system cuz of lag!! So, what is the BEST you can do? I really NEED it!!! Love your content!!

YOU DO NOT NEED TO PUT 41 good items in each sorter lol. Shows you clearly don't know what's happening. You just need the total to be 45. So put 44 of the sorter item in there (making sure all but one slot is filled in the hopper), and then put one of the item to be sorted in the final slot. The comparator is reading how full the hopper is, and the redstone torch is locking the hopper below that one. Once there are 46 items in there, the comparator outputs a signal strong enough (3) to trigger the repeater and disable the redstone torch, unlocking the hopper and allowing a single item to flow through the hopper thus bringing the item count back to 45 and re-locking the hopper below.

ImpulseSV is the king of the auto storage sorter

I watched your previous tut about this, it's mostly built just have to decide on the last few items I want to sort, xbox one here and I paused the video when I heard you say....water system creates more lag than hoppers?? Up till now I thought the opposite was true? Believe me, just the redstone alone makes the room laggy! Can yourself or someone reading confirm? I'll now continue the video....😌

You are Finnish . I am absolutely in love with the Finnish accent

How thick do you want your scandinavian accent to be? Shulkercraft: Moounteiin

you have really good english my guy. Keep going

Explained very well, thank you!

IMPROTANT: If you don't want 41 valuable diamonds (Or anything else) You can manually add more junk items and it will work perfectly fine, with less items stuck in the sorter. For instance, my sorting systems are formatted like so: (With the same redstone) For items stackable up to 64: 2 of the item I am sorting 40 junk items 1 junk item 1 junk item 1 junk item For items stackable up to 16: 2 of the item I am sorting 31 junk 1 junk 1 junk 1 junk For non-stackable it varies, but an allay sorting system guaranteed works for all non-stackable items. (If it's armor, you can use armor stands and a very sophisticated dispensing system, but it's really complicated, too much so to type. I think Raysworks has some designs. There are other ways to sort other unstackables, but again its complicated and unique per item.)

This man found every problem and gave y’all the solution 👏

Doesnt work wiht hoppers instead of water. I just built a massive room for 5-6 hours. Now when I am finished i realize that the redstone torch from the second level of storage interfears with the hoppers from the lower level, so only the upper level works. Now i have to rebuild and rething the entire thing. Or somehow change to water....

For anyone trying to use this sorting system and stacking it and using the hopper transport method put a two block gap and 1 forward or the bottom row transport won’t work

JaypeHDs video from about two months ago uses this design but does not require you to leave 41 of each block in the Hopper. Instead it lets you use the filter item instead. I would watch his video on this straight after if I was building this storage system

P.S.: If you're using the hopper method to move items, you cant stack the sorters since the redstone torch on the second layer will lock the hopper right below it on the hopper moving the items on the first layer. Tested it out in a creative world. Any tips on how to solve this? Edit: FIGURED IT OUT! You know how he said to build the second layer of the redstone part one block higher? Well do that, then move the WHOLE SECOND LAYER (redstone & chests) up ONE more block. That prevented the redstone torch from locking the hopper. It was fun figuring that out

TIP1: Use a filler block like seeds instead of the filtered item for most of the items and fill the hopper immediately below with 4 Filter items to only pull those from the hopper above TIP2!!!!: Replace the redstone imediately in front of the comparator with a solid block, it reduces the Filler blocks from 44 to 21 Tip: Have the Filler block be the first Filter in the system with an overflow into lava, I use this for flowers in my iron farm as well

This is very old design that works well. On switch lag can cause the hoppers to unload randomly but it's very rare

In the part he explains the accomodations for making it two level system that doesn't work at least for a 100% hopper system since if a hopper has a torch above it, it holds the items it receives

please make another video automatic storage room in which to do absolutely fast video showing doing everything

A shulker unloader in addition to the input chest would also be very nice to have

this was very useful thank you

Plz Do a video for a categorizer

i love your accent :))) thank you, halped very much

broo big fannnnnnnn

His English is loud and clear!

Could you please make a video on how to feed from multiple farms into a sorter? Everyone's sorter video talks about how to sort a lot of items but not how to deal with colliding carts coming from multiple farms. I've built the sorter and it works great, but I have 6 farms making a mix of 15 produce. Trying to get a single chest minecart to stop at each farm and then to the sorter has totally stumped me.

2:22 use egg or snowball for the filter item (don't forget to change names)

Bro I like your all videos Your videos are super

Amazing!

Thanks for the interesting video, I like it.

thx you so much

just what i needed

CompaRRator i love this mans accent while talking english

Pretty sure you can use Sea Pickles to align items properly in a water transporter.

Love you guys :)

I ran into a PROBLEM for the system I built just like as shown at 5:43. (hopper method) If you pause the video at this exact time, you can clearly see that the hoppers row transporting the items in the bottom chest part of the system are just blocked by the redstone torchs above it. This is a big problem because the items just get stuck when traveling down after going through all the top chest part and make it so you can't build it with the layout shown at 5:43. You should go with the water way to transport items with this layout or build the top filter system one block higher. If anyone has another solution I would appreciate, thanks for reading. (Since hopper connecting is pretty NOT self explanatory)

This is nice but please make the sorting system with water flow one. I don’t want to waste that much iron to craft hoppers.

Thx so mutch for this vid but all I need is the chests and hippers

when you build a second layer of chests does that require a separate input chest or can both layers be connected to each other?

After completing my building project, I will build again your ultimate storage with sorting system for over 2 000 000 items

see what I do is use the most common block as you say dirt but then I'll rename it to slots so then I can stack dirt in it as long as you dont send any though named slots then it won't break I tend to put item that I want sorting first then one dirt(renamed Slots) the another 1 dirt(renamed Slots) then another 1 dirt(renamed Slots) then finely 41 dirt(renamed Slots) at the end and if it's stacks of 16 instead of putting 41 at the end you'll only put 38 instead

My brother and i have in our survival world a system that can hold 300 items yet,but we made it really bigger 👍can you please make a video or a world download for all items in minecraft and how sort them in the storage ? :)

Thank you so much for this this really helped except can you cut out the second double chest and that hopper to save on iron?
