tl;dr go to the holodeck and boot up the medical program! Remember that you can use matches, lighters, and igniters to heat containers as well.
Remember that you can use [[File:Welder.png]]welding tool, [[File:Match.gif]]matches, [[File:Lighter.gif]]lighters, and [[File:Igniter.png]]igniters to heat containers.<br>
And [[File:Condenser.png]]condenser or [[File:Coolant.png]]coolant to cool them down aswell.


==Grindables==
==[[File:Eyedropper.png]] Most important tools==
 
Once you have a decent set of beakers and the like, it can be worth upgrading the tools you'll be using to manage your reactions. There are a number of tools that'll help you that can be created in the crafting menu and otherwise.
 
====[[File:Ph change icon.png|48px]] Universal indicator / pH booklets====
Reacting [[Guide_to_chemistry#Universal_indicator|Universal indicator]] will allow you to create pH booklets - the main way to detect your pH during a reaction. Simply rip out a page and use it on a beaker or improvised chem heater to get the pH of the solution at that point in time. You can also grind these pages to get 1u back - grinding all 50 pages will give you enough to make another booklet.
 
====[[File:ItemThermometer.png|64px]] Thermometer====
This can be added to anything that holds chemicals, and will tell you the temperature. To remove, close the UI.
 
====[[File:Burner.gif|64px]] Burners====
These tabletop burners will allow you to heat up your beakers simply by waving your container over it. It'll burn the reagent inside, and the temperature increase will depend on the burning temperature of the reagent contained within. For a quick reference
* Ethanol - burns very hot and for a long time
* Welding fuel - burns hot and fast
* Oil - doesn't burn as hot as the others, but lasts a long time
* Plasma - Hottest burning temperature and will be used up the quickest
* Pyrosium - Hottest burning temperature and burns through slowly, but requires oxygen to be in the burner as well
* Cyrostylane - Burns at 0K, very cold, can be used to cool beakers instead, requires oxygen to be in the burner as well
* Cryoxadone - Burns cold, can be used to cool beakers instead
 
If you put a mix in the burner, the flame temperature will by the weighted sum of the reagents within. To add reagents to the burner, simply snuff out the flame and pour stuff in, to light it, use a lighter or a match!
 
====[[File:GhettoHeater.gif|48px]] Improvised chem heater====
For the ghetto enthusiast, a space heater can be refactored into an impromptu chem heater- allowing you much finer control over the temperature specifics of your reactions. If you're planning on making anything difficult, or want to have better control over your temperatures, this is the best way to do it.
''Images to come soon''
 
====[[File:Wooden_barrel.png|48px]]Barrels====
When you got a chemical that requires a lot of acid, stable plasma or other base chems in order to stabilize so you don't get blown up, this is for you. All you have to do is pour the chemicals in, Barrels can hold 300 units of reagents.
 
====[[File:ChemSeparator.png|48px]]Distillation apparatus====
A device that performs chemical separation by distillation. You can separate chems here by boiling them. It's slowly and harder, than just finding mentioned ChemMaster 3000 in maintenance, so consider this as secondary solution. Uses same fuel, as burner.
 
==[[File:Blender.png]] Grinding components==
Not only can you steal things, but you can also shove them into a grinder to retrieve chemicals from them!
Not only can you steal things, but you can also shove them into a grinder to retrieve chemicals from them!
 
This list shows which components and where they can be obtained for further chemistry.

George Melons, the Assistant says:
"Hey, kid. Wanna buy some Space Drugs? You askin' how I made it? Well, I threw a bunch of random trash an'a dead mouse in a blender and heated it up with a lighter, of course! Easy as that."


Starting out

So, you are an average Greytide and you want to be a Walter White. How do you do it? First off, you're gonna wanna get these things to get started with ghetto chem.

  • A few beakers, soda cans, bottles, etc
  • A couple of tables to store your beakers, so you don't spill your shit on the floor

Most importantly, without this you dont have ghetto chem:

  • An all in one grinder, to grind some things into liquid form. Optionally make a mortar and pestle .
  • A ChemMaster 3000 to separate and bottle chemicals. Optionally make a distillation apparatus

Remember that you can use welding tool, matches, lighters, and igniters to heat containers.
And condenser or coolant to cool them down aswell.

Most important tools

Once you have a decent set of beakers and the like, it can be worth upgrading the tools you'll be using to manage your reactions. There are a number of tools that'll help you that can be created in the crafting menu and otherwise.

Universal indicator / pH booklets

Reacting Universal indicator will allow you to create pH booklets - the main way to detect your pH during a reaction. Simply rip out a page and use it on a beaker or improvised chem heater to get the pH of the solution at that point in time. You can also grind these pages to get 1u back - grinding all 50 pages will give you enough to make another booklet.

Thermometer

This can be added to anything that holds chemicals, and will tell you the temperature. To remove, close the UI.

Burners

These tabletop burners will allow you to heat up your beakers simply by waving your container over it. It'll burn the reagent inside, and the temperature increase will depend on the burning temperature of the reagent contained within. For a quick reference

  • Ethanol - burns very hot and for a long time
  • Welding fuel - burns hot and fast
  • Oil - doesn't burn as hot as the others, but lasts a long time
  • Plasma - Hottest burning temperature and will be used up the quickest
  • Pyrosium - Hottest burning temperature and burns through slowly, but requires oxygen to be in the burner as well
  • Cyrostylane - Burns at 0K, very cold, can be used to cool beakers instead, requires oxygen to be in the burner as well
  • Cryoxadone - Burns cold, can be used to cool beakers instead

If you put a mix in the burner, the flame temperature will by the weighted sum of the reagents within. To add reagents to the burner, simply snuff out the flame and pour stuff in, to light it, use a lighter or a match!

Improvised chem heater

For the ghetto enthusiast, a space heater can be refactored into an impromptu chem heater- allowing you much finer control over the temperature specifics of your reactions. If you're planning on making anything difficult, or want to have better control over your temperatures, this is the best way to do it. Images to come soon

Barrels

When you got a chemical that requires a lot of acid, stable plasma or other base chems in order to stabilize so you don't get blown up, this is for you. All you have to do is pour the chemicals in, Barrels can hold 300 units of reagents.

Distillation apparatus

A device that performs chemical separation by distillation. You can separate chems here by boiling them. It's slowly and harder, than just finding mentioned ChemMaster 3000 in maintenance, so consider this as secondary solution. Uses same fuel, as burner.

Grinding components

Not only can you steal things, but you can also shove them into a grinder to retrieve chemicals from them! This list shows which components and where they can be obtained for further chemistry.

Chemical Sources Notes
Ammonia Urinal cakes (1u)
Ash Burning a paper or oil and scooping up the ash with a beaker (30u) A less obvious way to get ash is to put out cigarettes, or just burn any item, that can be BURNED!
Aluminium Crushed soda cans (crush on your head first) (10u), deconstruct smart metal foam grenades (75u), boritos bag leftovers (1u)
Blood Dead mouse (20u), grind any fish, or use a syringe to extract from a monkey or human
Bluespace Dust Bluespace crystals (20u, if artificial 10u)
Carbon coal, diamond, bones - (20u), cigarette butts, firebrands - (2u), heating Cellulose Fibers Overheating caramel (heat sugar, then heat resulting caramel to carbon). Firebrands can be crafted from one stack of wood, but grinding up a wooden plank and then heating it is ten times as efficient.
Cellulose Fibers Wooden planks (20u), cloth (20u), raw cotton (20u), cardboard (10u), paper frame (20u), bamboo shavings (10u), corn cob (10u), package wrapper (5u), paper (3u), medical gauze (2u), space cash (10u)
Chlorine Urinal cakes (3u) 1u Liquid Electricity can be used with 5u Table Salt to obtain 2.5u Chlorine through Salt Electrolysis.
Copper Cable/pipe cleaner coils (2u per wire), bronze sheet (12u per sheet),
Ethanol Spraycans (15u), make one in Biogenerator
Gold Gold coin (4u), robust Gold cigarettes (premium cigarette vendor item) (3u), gold bar (20u)
Hydrogen Glowsticks (10u) 1u Liquid Electricity can be used with 5u Water to obtain 3u Hydrogen through Electrolysis.
