=== It's getting hot in here ===
Since we don't have a machine to heat our chemicals, we have to do it by hand. To avoid [[Guide_to_chemistry#Meth_Explosion|meth explosions]] we should know how it works:
* Heating is independet of the chemical and its quantity (1u carbon heats up as fast as 100u water)
* Beware, that chemicals within the ChemMaster will act like any container and keep/exchange their temperature.
* Temperature-capacity is independent of the chemical and distributed evenly by mass:
** 1u Aluminium ('''300K''') + 1u Aluminium ('''1500K''') = 2u Aluminium ('''900K''')
** 2u Aluminium ('''900K''') + 1u Aluminium ('''300K''') = 3u Aluminium ('''700K''')
** 6u Aluminium('''500K''') + 3u Carbon ('''300K''') = 6u Aluminium('''433K''') + 3u Carbon ('''433K''')
* Chemicals don't adjust their temperature (aka 'cool') over time.
* Products of chemical reactions (including the [[Guide_to_drinks|bartender's drinks]]) keep their reagents temperature. Except the reaction is endothermic / exothermic
You can heat chemicals beyond '''1000K''' by manually heating them with lighters / zippos / welding tools, though the heating process is not linear (each use adds 1K at least).

You can extract contents from [[Grenade|grenades]] by deconstructing them, if you manage to get your hands on one in the first place. Reagents and quantities depend on what people put inside the grenade of course. There are some other types of grenades which can't be used though, most notably the flash- and the smoke-grenade.
