# Heating up netherite tools

On ImperiumMC, you are able to heat up Netherite tools by throwing them in lava and cool off Netherite tools by throwing them in water, or in a cauldron filled with water.

Once you heat up a netherite tool, its temperature will show up when you hover over the item in your inventory.

{% hint style="danger" %}
Heating up or cooling off will consume one bucket-worth of lava/water.
{% endhint %}

The benefit of heating up tools is that you will be able to temporarily convert items that can be smelt/cooked immediately into their smelt/cooked versions.
