dust funnels are your best bet for compacting dusts, but they’re sort of finicky to automate without a lot of faffing about. what i recommend is having a chest that leads into a dust funnel set to “tiny dusts” via a hopper that only outputs 8 1/72nd dusts at a time, and then have that lead into ANOTHER dust funnel that is set to normal dusts, via a hopper that is set to output only 9 at a time. that’s the way i do it, but it’s rather slow and doesn’t scale very well.
