ME Fluid Discretizer
The ME Fluid Discretizer is a device that, when attached to ME network, exposes the contents of its fluid storage grid as items, which take the form of "fluid drops".
Each fluid drop is equivalent to one mB of its respective fluid, which means a full stack of them is equivalent to 64 mB. But these drops are only worked as helper items, they don't have an actual usage. So you would better not mess with these drops to avoid possible bugs. When you are actually doing you fluid auto crafting setup, you only need to deal with the real fluid ([1.7.10] or fluid packets) instead of these drops.
Drops will get removed in future.
This is the central mechanic that makes fluid autocrafting possible.
Every AE network only need one ME Fluid Discretizer. If you put multiple ME Fluid Discretizer in the network, it will cause some visual bugs.
Note that the only way to convert between fluids and fluid drops is a discretizer attached to an ME network.
While you could theoretically use this as a very convoluted method of transporting fluids, it is not recomomended to do so.
A simple setup to begin fluid crafting. (The leftmost block is ME Fluid Discretizer)

These drops won't occupy the item storage space, so don't worry about they will take up all your 64k storage cells.
