So, I got one Diamond Chest with logistics chassis Mk2, with Quicksort and ItemSink put into default inventory. Now, I got all kinds of stuff coming from all over the place, farms, quarries, distant sites et cetera.

Now, I aim to do smart warehouse (haven't introduced myself to Applied Energistics) that is connected to my factory. I just only got small setup, four pulverizers and four furnaces, each of them having chassis Mk2 with Extractor and ItemSink (not default) with the ores I need to process and smelt.

Now I got warehouse system where certain items go to certain places, every iron chest has Polymorphic ItemSink and Provider module Mk2. I left Provider's nine spaces empty, leaving 1 item per stack.

Every ore that comes from quarries goes to pulverizer from default chest normally, but when there is excess ore, it goes to chest where the leftover ore is.

Then I have this problem. When pulverizer has emptied its inventory or doesn't have full stack of items, chests with leftover ore should provide them. But it won't. I tried everything, even terminus modules in the pulverizers, but no dice.

Of course, I could use supplier pipes and do output pipes to empty them, but it feels awkward, plus I don't have enough space for that kind of system. Am I missing something? Or do I have to use the supplier pipes and make it harder?
