Alcohol Lamp
The Alcohol Lamp must first be assembled using the Skills->Assembly menu. It requires:
- 1 Reagent Bottle
- 1 Small Gear
- 1 Gold Wire
- 1 Rope
Glassware
Install one each of the following:
Glassware of specific quality will allow for the lab to be calibrated. Calibrated labs give increased powdered gem yield, increased litmus strip solution, and require fewer essences per essential compound.
Calibration level 2 requires the glassware to have an average quality exactly divisible by 100 (rounded down), and an average quality above 7000.
For calibration level 3 the average quality of the glassware must be exactly 8000 or 9000, rounded down. (The sum of the glassware quality must be between 40000 and 40004, or 45000 and 45004)

Powdered Gems
You must have the gems in your inventory in order to see the option on the lab.
Powdered gem yield is multiplied by (1 + the precise calibration level of the lab). At calibration 3 (maximum known), yields are multiplied by 4.
| Gem Size | Quantity Made |
|---|---|
| Huge | 7 |
| Large | 4 |
| Medium | 2 |
| Small | 1 |
| Cuttable | 1 |
