Lean Production

Lean is a drug production job with a physical brewing process. Mix ingredients in a barrel, shake or wait for it to mix, fill cups, and sell to the buyer.

Criminal Activity

Lean production is illegal. Police can raid your base. Build somewhere secure.

The Production Process

Adding Ingredients

Place your Barrel — Find a secure spot

Press E on the barrel — Opens the ingredient menu

Buy all 4 ingredients — Sprite, Codeine, Jolly Ranchers, and Ice

Fill to the required amounts — Check the UI for how much you need

Ingredients Required:

  • Sprite — The base liquid
  • Codeine — The active ingredient
  • Jolly Ranchers — For flavor
  • Ice — Keeps it cold

You must fill ALL ingredients before mixing can start. Partial batches won't work.

Mixing the Batch

Once ingredients are in, the barrel closes and you have two options depending on server config:

Manual Shake Mode:

  • Pick up the barrel with your physgun
  • Shake it violently — swing it around fast
  • The barrel makes a "ping" sound with each successful shake
  • Keep shaking until mixing is complete

Timer Mode:

  • Press E on the barrel to start the mixing timer
  • Just wait — no physical interaction needed

In manual mode, you need to swing FAST. Gentle movements don't register as shakes.

Harvesting Your Lean

Barrel opens — Visual change shows the liquid is ready

Buy Cups — Get empty cups from the F4 menu

Touch cups to the barrel — Use physgun to move empty cups to the barrel

Cups fill automatically — They change appearance when full

The barrel produces a fixed number of cups per batch. You can't over-extract.

Selling Your Product

Option A: Use Crates

Touch filled cups to a Crate — Cups are absorbed into the crate

Carry the crate to the Lean Buyer NPC — or use The Broker on KORDU servers

Press E on the NPC — Crate is sold, money is given

Option B: Pocket Sell (if enabled)

  • Press E on the crate to absorb cups into your virtual inventory
  • Walk to the Buyer NPC and press E to sell what you're carrying

Common Problems


Quick Reference

  • 4 ingredients required — Sprite, Codeine, Jolly Ranchers, Ice
  • Manual shake — Swing barrel fast with physgun
  • Cups touch barrel — Physical interaction to fill them
  • Crates transport bulk — Hold multiple cups for easy selling
  • Buyer NPC — Get close and press E to sell
  • Barrels can be destroyed — Protect your operation

Values May Vary

Ingredient costs, sell prices, and batch sizes may be adjusted. Check in-game for current values.
