<s>You can save recipes in the chem dispenser to instantly dispense a certain combination of chemicals at the touch of a button at the remaining cost of dispenser power.

Recipes are tied to a specific Chem Dispenser, and anyone using that dispenser will be able to see, use and erase recipes in it. You also cannot remove individual recipes, as the dispenser only allows you to add recipes and erase all recipes saved.

You can give your recipe any name, and you enter the ingredients in the format <code><ingredient_id>=<amount></code>, separated by semicolons.
For example:
{|
|----
|<code>oxygen=20;nitrogen=15;carbon=10</code>
|-
|<code>water=100</code>
|-
|<code>sulfur=10;ethanol=50</code>
|----
|}

If your recipe doesn't appear in the chem dispenser menu, then you've most likely entered it incorrectly, so try again.</s>

August 2019, the above "chemical recipes" (aka macros) feature was removed from /tg/station, and replaced with recipe recording. You can record recipes by clicking the chem/booze/drink dispenser, and clicking "Record Recipe". Then dispense some reagents, then click "Save". See this gif for an example:<br>
