51. Yes, Also, those counters need to be set 1 higher than the amount that is needed.
So, the one that controls the blaze powder needs to be set at 4 even though I need 3 blaze powder. This is because those counters keep emitting a redstone signal after reaching their count until they get another one.
oulse->go to 2->do nothing
pulse->go to 3->do nothing
pulse->go to 0->set redstone output to true
pulse->go to 1->turn off redstone signal
That is also why the signal from the counters loop back into itself, that way when it turns on to turn off the AND gate it also turns itself off some time later. It turns off the AND gate by resetting the rs nor latch(or whatever it is called) and I also use the reset pulse from the cobble stone to start the crafting of netherrack. Hooray for double purpose.

51 and now, time to wait until all the hoppers are filled with charcoal
Considering the amount of hoppers used to transport the charcoal to the 3 places that need it, and the fact that those also always consume some charcoal. That can take a while.....
I may also need to give it more furnaces, something tells me 4 isn't enough. But, maybe a slower redstone clock is a better solution for that

So...after some time spend AFK and fixing a few bugs into it it works. I now get 8 netherrack ready to be smashed every 20 seconds.
The problem is that the system I use to keep the cauldron filled is totally broken and making a better one is...complicated....
I have no pumps (at least, not as far as I know), so I can't go the easy way.
I can't use item filters, because those are apparently very high tech (who would have thought).
Mechanical users have 2 modes to select which item in their inventory they use. Random, and upper left. Because upper left is the same slot that gets inserted into and extracted from, I can't just fill their inventory and call it a day.
The only solution I can come up with is to have the mechanical users work with redstone pules and have iron hoppers under them that are locked.
Pulse the mechanical user -> remove lock from hopper-> insert into other mechanical user->pulse->remove lock of this one->put it in the first->repeat

51 and.... solved it.
The redstone clock that I normally use ended up switching to quick to make delays using repeaters possible. This meant that the most basic method of switching signals doesn't work (if that weren't the case I already had a working system before I made that last post).
So, here is how I fixed everything:
To get water, I used a dispenser. I hooked this up to a comparator, this way I could detect if the dispenser contained nothing, an empty bucket and a filled bucket.
Knowing what was inside I can easily unlock the hopper beneath it when the dispenser fills the bucket. (just a redstone torch at the correct distance away from the comparator)
To get said bucket emptied into the cauldron is another problem though as dispensers don't like cauldrons and mechanical users don't work with comparators.
To get around this I set the mechanical user up to only work if it has a redstone signal and like before put a hopper underneath it. The redstone that controls the hopper is the same as the one for the user, and comes from an redstone clock hooked up to a clock.
Redstone on -> user on, hopper off
Redstone off -> user off, hopper on
I also hooked up the dispenser to the same clock rather then doing something fancy with its comparator because lazy.
