I just had a request for a tutorial for my fully automatic brewing station (see other thread) , so I'll make one.
This will be a layer-by-layer picture tutorial + explanations. Every layers of blocks will be in a different color in that specific order : blue , red , yellow , orange , green and purple.
For the build , you will need :
- building blocks of your choice , some stairs (to put above the chests) , a half slab and a glass block
- 9 chests (6 normal , 3 trap chests)
- 6 item frames (and items to put in) and 1 sign
- 1 brewing stand
- 6 levers
- 1 button
- 9 redstone lamps
- 7 droppers
- 25 hoppers
- 37 redstone torches
- 23 redstone dust
- 25 repeaters
- 12 comparators
- 8 sticky pistons
- 1 redstone block
Step 1 (picture #1) :
These are the base blocks for your station. All the torches are attached to the block next to them , not on the floor. The hopper next to the chest is connected to it. The dropper going into a hopper (this one is going back in the dropper) is your output. Put an item inside the dropper , and when it receives a redstone signal , it will send the item inside the hopper and the comparator will output a signal for a short amount of time triggering the whole brewing process. The repeater is on 1 tick , and you can't see it , but there is a piece of redstone dust in front of the repeater and also one behind it.
Step 2 (picture #2) :
Things are now getting serious. Look closely at the arrows on top of the hoppers at the right of the picture , these indicates which direction they are facing. On the left , you got 2 lines of 6 repeaters each. The back ones are all on 1 tick , and the front ones , from the left to the right , the 5 first ones are on 3 ticks and the last one is on 1 tick. Make sure the timing are corrects for the whole build , because a difference of a single tick can make the station not working properly. The other repeaters are on 1 tick.
Step 3 (picture #3) :
Make sure to spot every single redstone torches on that picture , some are kind of hard to see. The repeater going from the restone block to the yellow block is on 4 ticks (very important). There is also a comparator going from the hopper on top of the brewing stand into the piston. In the bottom right corner , this is an upside down piston. The 6 droppers are the ones that will send the ingredients and they are all facing up. The hoppers next to them are going in the dropper that is right next to it and of course , the hopper on top of the brewing stand is going into it. You also need to put 50 stackable items in the hopper below the redstone block.
From the left to the right , the line of hoppers are going to the right and the last one , the one on top of the brewing stand , is going down into the other hopper that was already there. The only repeater you add in that step is on 2 ticks (also very important). All the torches are attached to the orange block next to it.
Step 5 (Picture #5) :
The repeater is on 1 tick. The brick block at the top right is a top of a block half slab. It is very important that you put a half slab there because if you put a full block , it will create a BUD with the piston below.
And the final step ...
Step 6 (Picture #6) :
All the repeaters are on 1 tick , and the pistons are all sticky , like every other piston in this build.
And that's it! You are done with the redstone!
Picture #7 : The face of the station
This is what it should look like when you are done building. The top lights should turn on when you put ingredients and water bottles in the system.
You can now enjoy your own fully automatic brewing station!
If you have trouble to make it work , make sure to check every picture to make sure you built it correctly. This is a pretty complicated redstone build so it is very easy to miss things or build something wrong.
If you have any questions , feel free to ask me and I'll be happy to help you back!
For the ones who ask why I didn't built it component by component and explain what everything does in the system , it's because many , many people don't understand how redstone work and just want to build something and make it work.
So that was my tutorial. Hope you like it and that it is understandable enough for you to build it lol!
Edit : Since some torches can be hard to see on other pictures , I thought I would put a picture of the back of the redstone , so , this is it , Picture #8 , the back of the redstone.

Epppiiic! Thanks so much!
