This video is a very quick tutorial on how to build an "Ender Station". This will dispense 16 Ender Pearls with each press of the button.

Unfortuantely, there's not much about how it works exactly, but from a basic understanding of it, the system uses a combination of powering Redstone torches, combined with a delayed loop (using a repeater), to dispense 8 items, from 2 dispensers, giving you 16 Ender Pearls*.

This is a very old version, (the video was posted back in 2013), however there is nothing about the mechanics that would not allow it to work in current versions.

As for how to build all the components in this module, you can find all the recipes on the wiki.

*This only dispenses 16 - no more, and no less. But, outside of commands, this is the only way to do it.

You could've just looked on the Minecraft Wiki, but I won't judge.

Here's the recipe on how to make one:

For some items such as potions, water buckets, fire charges, and arrows, The dispenser will throw, place and shoot, but not drop the item. If you want to do this, you need a dropper:

I hope this was helpful. Happy crafting!

You can always use command blocks type in chat:

/give @p minecraft:command_block

Then you place it under were you are going to have the pressure plate then go into it and type:

/give @p minecraft:ender_pearl 16

Then put the pressure plate on it and all you have to do is change the last number to how many ender pearls you want it to give you.
