Phanta production: precursor, temperature and finishing

Prepare supplies and equipment

Buy the Retired Chemist introduction through Joe Wild, or use the Chemist start. The supplier sells common chemical packs and may bring restricted packs. Unpack packs you own. Prepare a Composition Spectrometer, measuring tools, clean liquid containers, a receiving container fitted with a filter, a Heating Plate with at least two chemical modules, a powered Evaporator and a Chem Finisher. Two modules unlock temperature controls; zero fixes the heater at 99°C and one at 160°C. Check the container’s actual temperature.

Make the product

1. Restricted supplies unpack into two precursor bottles and one Reducing Agent bottle; common supplies provide acid and base. Scan the actual N-Methylol Base, Stabilizing Agent and Reducing Agent volumes. Purchased reagents can contain 2–8% impurities.

2. Add small amounts of acid or base to the precursor. Wait for Stabilizing Agent to become Insoluble Debris, then scan again. If the treatment runs out, add a little more. Once stabilizer is gone, neutralize remaining acid with an equal actual volume of base, or vice versa. Filter the debris into a clean receiving container and treat other impurities.

3. For each 10mL of cleaned N-Methylol Base, add approximately 7.5mL of actual Reducing Agent. Measure components rather than total bottle volume. Add close to the target, scan, then top up.

4. Keep the mixture’s actual temperature at least 110°C and below 130°C. It reacts faster at 120–129°C; start with a target around 125°C and watch the actual reading. Precursor and Reducing Agent should decrease while Phanta increases. From 130°C, Phanta degrades.

5. Remove the container from heat when the reaction stops. If Reducing Agent remains, add separately cleaned precursor: about 1.333mL N-Methylol Base per 1mL remaining Reducing Agent, then react and scan again. New untreated precursor still contains stabilizer.

6. Filter remaining debris, neutralize leftover acid/base, and evaporate water, alcohol and Lipobond Agent. Keep the dry material in the Evaporator’s main container. Select Phanta Pill in the finisher; each pill uses 0.5mL total mixture.

Check the result

10mL cleaned precursor plus 7.5mL Reducing Agent gives about 1mL Phanta. Integer rounding can leave slightly less: do not promise exactly two pills.

For both recipes, water + alcohol + Lipobond must total no more than 0.1mL before finishing. Scan one output before processing the rest. Four chemical modules stop the finisher adding its own impurities; they do not clean dirty input.
