A gold farm and factory expansion

I’m a little annoyed at myself, there are two ways of creating gold from a source of cobblestone, and I went and used the slower way in the big factory.

To get the stockpile of gold up, I decided to make a gold farm on the Nether roof. This solved the immediate problem, but I still need to think about how I can get gold generation in the factory up to the levels I want.

Part of the issue with now changing how gold is generated in the factory is that I’ve since built quite a lot of stuff down-stream in the automated factory bits. Since the better method needs a bulk blaster and a crusher before the washer, I don’t have space to just switch what goes into the washer that generates gold. Also, the better way of generating gold also produces less nether quartz, so I have to keep that in mind too. I may have to look into that weird Dank magic stuff that allows a dank to be in two places at the same time.
