Meth Lab Guide
Complete guide to cooking and selling meth on KORDU.gg DarkRP - equipment, process, and selling tips
Meth Lab
Running a meth lab is a profitable criminal production job. You'll combine ingredients, filter the mixture, freeze it into product, and sell to the buyer NPC through a drop-off system.
Criminal Activity
Meth production is highly illegal. Police can raid your base, and selling meth makes you wanted. Build a secure, hidden location.

Equipment Overview
Production Machines
| Equipment | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Combiner | Mixes ingredients into meth sludge (max 1) |
| Filter | Attaches to combiner, prevents poison damage |
| Freezer | Freezes sludge into sellable meth (max 1) |
Supplies
| Item | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Methylamine | Primary ingredient |
| Aluminum | Secondary ingredient |
| Freezing Tray | Holds sludge during freezing |
| Collection Crate | Collects finished meth for transport |
The Cooking Process
Setting Up Your Lab
Place your machines — Set down the Combiner and Freezer with enough space for trays to eject
Buy ingredients — Get Methylamine and Aluminum from the F4 menu
Buy a filter — You'll need this before the filtering phase starts
The filter doesn't need to be attached right away — you'll add it after the ingredients are loaded.
Mixing the Ingredients
Add Methylamine first — Touch it to the Combiner (required amount varies per batch)
Wait for mixing — First mixing phase runs automatically
Add Aluminum — Touch it to the Combiner after methylamine is processed
Wait for second mixing — Machine processes the combined ingredients
Attach the filter NOW — Touch a Filter to the Combiner before filtering starts
Wait for filtering — This is when the filter matters for yield
Add empty tray — Touch a Freezing Tray to the Combiner when ready
Wait for pumping — Sludge pumps into the tray automatically
Collect the tray — Tray ejects when full
Filter Timing is Critical!
The filter must be attached before or during the filtering phase to get full yield. Without it:
- 50% yield loss
- Poison damage to anyone nearby
The Combiner gets dirty after each batch — clean it by pressing E on the dirty areas before starting a new cook.
Freezing the Meth
Load the freezer — Touch full sludge tray to the Freezer
Wait for freezing — Tray freezes inside the machine
Retrieve the tray — Press E on the Freezer to eject it
Break the ice — Press E on the tray multiple times to break it open
Collect the meth — Finished meth spawns, touch it to a Collection Crate
There's a small loss during freezing and breaking — this is normal and factored into the process.
Selling Your Product
Fill the crate — Collect enough meth into your Collection Crate
Absorb the crate — Press E on the crate to absorb it (virtual inventory)
Go to the Meth Buyer NPC — Request a drop-off location
Follow the waypoint — Travel to the assigned drop-off point
Make the drop — Press E at the drop-off location to complete the sale
You'll Get Wanted!
Selling meth automatically makes you wanted by police. Be ready to run or hide.
The Filter
The filter is not optional — it's critical to your operation:
| With Filter | Without Filter |
|---|---|
| ✅ Full yield | ❌ 50% yield loss |
| ✅ No damage | ❌ Poison damage while mixing |
| ✅ Safe operation | ❌ Health risk |
Filters have limited health and wear out over time. Replace them when they break.
VIP Benefits
Higher ranks earn more per gram of meth sold:
| Rank | Advantage |
|---|---|
| Default | Base sell rate |
| VIP | Slightly higher sell rate |
| MVP | Even higher sell rate |
| Premium | Best sell rate |
The gameplay loop is identical for all ranks — VIPs just earn more per sale.
Tips for Success
Common Problems
Quick Tips
- Filter is mandatory — 50% yield loss without it, plus poison damage
- Ice breaking — Press E multiple times on frozen trays to break them
- Drop-off system — Absorb crates, get waypoint from NPC, deliver to location
- Selling makes you wanted — Be prepared for police attention
- Equipment limits — You can only own 1 combiner and 1 freezer at a time
- Clean your gear — Dirty equipment slows production
Values May Vary
Processing times, yields, and prices may be adjusted. Pay attention to in-game UI for current values.
