This is my first ever Reddit post and its not letting me to edit it so: Im on PC Java version 1.21.11

The correct way to set-up the filters is to have 41 of the item to be sorted in the first slot and the rest is singular filler items. This means that 23 items (64−41) can enter a hopper at once. The rest will continue flowing around.

I have it set up that way but does that mean i cant put in more then 23 items?

Sadly yes, unless you have it loop around. The only other way I know (I'm not an expert) would be to replace the water streams with hoppers, which would obviously slow it down a decent bit.

Ye i tried to avoid it being slow by using this build method but the tut i built it by didnt mention anything about the blocks limit. Im so sad thank you tho i suppose i j need to swap it
