Short description:

the drying basin currently stores its item as a storage slot. this means that any form of automation has to have some sort of filter, because you can't simply extract the output.

I'm not sure I understand your request.

Drying basins already support Forge's IItemHandler capability, so this should already work out-of-the-box with any kind of item transfer system (such as hoppers). Doesn't this work for you?

it's not that it's not working with transfer systems, but that it's not acting as a machine. it's working as a chest, so any extraction tool can pull anything out at any time instead of pulling only the output of the craft.

Ah, now I get it. The way it works now is intentional, it encourages more interesting automation logic. If you want an easier automatable machine, you can use the mechanical variant. I won't be changing the way the current drying basin works, sorry.
