This is the Literal Beverage Empire with over 33 flavors.

Oh, that's pretty hot.

But that's because I think the process will really surprise you.

Hello, everyone.

We are currently visiting Yurtam Factory.

And right now, this is not just a regular everyday company

this is a literal beverage empire with over 33 flavors now let's go inside

and see how it turns from just an empty regular aluminum

can to an actual favorite drink let's go okay everyone

so this is buff cat

and guess what flavor it is it's actually the green apricot flavor

and green apricots only appear in the spring

that say there's a flower symbol here because um like um it's

when they're not ripe and they're like really sour and it's like the perfect taste they're really tasty

okay everyone so this is where it all starts from this is like the beginning of how you make like

a soda can so basically you think all of these are full but actually

they're empty hear that noise i mean they're still empty they just came from china

and um over here all these are empty

they don't even have like the top yet like this like this silver thing

they don't even have the top yet they're barely ready all there's only the can that's it nothing else

but later on in the process they're gonna put it in the liquid they're gonna seal it

and they're actually going to um prepare

it this is where the product starts all the way from here basically they carry the forklift

and they go all over they put it there the elevator takes it up here

and then they push it all over here look how many hands are

and then they all squeeze it into this area

and then it goes all the way over there

and now look right now it's going really slow

because all of them are tight packed really like thick buttons from here

it's going to start squeezing it together from here and three lanes

and then only two

and finally all the way over here they squeeze

it into only one single lane right here as you can

see over here as soon as it gets whipped into only

one lane as you can see it goes all over there inside

that cleaning machine basically see what it does is it flips it upside down and it cleans it from below

david what's this side plan do you know yes it's for cleaning how they clean

so first they flip it upside down they put it inside

and then they they watch it without like chemicals very very like strong chemicals

that clean it they even clean it inside

and then the water comes out they wait for it and the water comes down then they flip it back to normal

As you see, there's no human touching here, but after this boy, no one is touching.

And that lady is like cleaning up with her clothes on.

If there's anything wrong, they clean up, like checking every single of the bottle.

She's checking.

Why is she checking every single of the bottle?

Because if one thing is wrong, something very bad.

okay everyone

so after the uh the gita cans are getting clean

they enter this place where this like giant circular thing picks them up

and immediately after they pick them up they stay like they take them

and then they fill them immediately with like the liquid

that like the can needs for example why do you need a liquid nitrogen here uh it's

because um first they're gonna add like the first they're gonna add the silver very deuce

and then they're gonna put a tiny drop of liquid nitrogen

i know you made me thinking the liquid nitrogen is gonna poison right well no

it turns it turns into gas

because liquid nitrogen cannot survive hot temperatures it turns into gas

and it expands 700 times and the re

and cans are really thin their walls are really thin to like save the conch

so it makes them like a balloon so you cannot squiff them or anything

after they put the liquid nitrogen drop they have to close it really really fast

and like the gas is gonna escape do you know why slacks feels like very fast yeah uh

so basically it's because this is the part where the lid closes

and in order for the lid to close

it's like a like a bottle cap you know you have to like twist it for it to cook

It's in it really fast, and then take it, and then it's going to close.

Do you know what a little machine does?

Yeah, so even if it's really little, it's really important, because after that, they still have to check over and over again.

They're checking with humans, and now they're checking with machines and robots.

Basically, it measures its weight, how much liquid it has, if it's too much liquid, too little liquid, or it doesn't match any of the requirements.

Basically, you see this tray over here?

There's a tray.

This machine is going to push it off.

so now this is the biggest machine of this whole entire factory

because of how giant and long and it slipped all the way over there

but the reason is

because they want to make it like really like heated up

this is like a heating machine they heat it up to 80 degrees celsius

and in this part they cool it down the reason is

because they want to kill any bacteria or any stuff or any tiny

microorganisms because those kind of things die in hot temperatures

so now it's fresh it's clean

and they do it for a really long time that's why the machine is so long

and then it comes out from what you want to touch

it i want to feel how it's hot oh that's pretty hot

this next one right here is um uh right here

it's gonna dry the top it's gonna drive the top right here and uh it's only dry the bottom.

This is why over here, it flips it.

It flips it, and then this part...

What's this white part does?

It flips it upside down again.

And then it dries the bottom too.

So it dries whole side, so it's completely dry.

This is the stem.

Laser stem.

After the laser stem, look at this.

look what's what's the date says it says um it's an expiration date 17 0 september 2026 17 september 2027

so it lasts exactly one year until this is for a

100

while for one year look it's even

101

it says the time like 5 56 p .m like what's

102

this you know why do they need this one you know

103

you're good this is like mostly government regulations they have special requirements

104

they have to pass the government regulations that's why they have to put stamp

105

it's a production it's production

106

now with the mini boxes like they put the mini boxes here

107

it's like youtube that's the name of the brand name of how many how many can fit oh wow

108

so four and three well you see this is already production now

109

so this is the last part almost yeah almost what happened oh they wrapped plastic all over it

110

so the reason they wrap plastic is because plastic melts really easily

111

so when they put it inside this like super heater furnace then plastic is going to melt

112

and it's going to connect everywhere it's going to like like it's going to like melt over it

113

and it's going to like connect it so it doesn't fall from here

114

now it's coming out this is the final product final product from like an empty can all the way to this

115

116

that look i placed one that's cool

117

124

And then you're going to drink it without looking.

125

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
