For Blender fans out there - you may have noticed the Blender logo donut on the bottom row under the glass display (first shown at 1:17).
You may have also noticed the face of Andrew Price at 9:25. Andrew (also known as @blenderguru) is a Blender legend, famous for teaching people how to make 3D donuts.
If you want to start learning Blender I encourage you to watch his Blender Donut Series!    • Blender 4.0 Beginner Donut Tutorial (...

📼Video Summary:
Krispy Kreme is famous for its donut machine. You can watch the machine from behind a glass wall inside the store. The first Krispy Kreme store was in 1937. In the 1950s they used the Krispy Automatic Ring-King Junior to make the donuts. The machine today is a lot bigger and can churn out over 3000 donuts per hour! The machine has several main parts: mixer, extruder, proofer, fryer, glaze waterfall, retail curve, and cooling tunnel. The machine can be modified to make different types of donuts; some of them are dipped by hand into colored icing. Experienced workers need to monitor the machine at each step of the way. Just in case, they also have the emergency stop button.

    For those that use Blender (3d software) - there are a couple of hidden surprises in this video. Did you find them?😁
  • @tedchirvasiu
    The animator: finally that donut blender tutorial we all watch at the beginning comes to good use.
  • 2:42 "this tiny machine could churn out 720 donuts per hour." That's 12 donuts a minute, which is a donut every 5 seconds, and when you watch the animation, one donut comes out every five seconds. The attention to detail is crazy!
  • @Paronak
    i appreciate the glazing waterfall fluid simulation.
  • @WindowsNT_
    What are the odds of thinking "I wonder how they make the donuts" then getting this video about 6 seconds later
  • @freddysaade1651
    this banger dropped the same day Mcdonald’s says they partnered with Krispy Cream
  • @wilwick756
    As a donut lover, I've never been happier to see a video recommendation.
  • @maemilev
    I'm fond of their softness. No other brand can create such airy donuts. Making them yourself is almost impossible!
  • @aienthusiast618
    the blender logo donut looks really good:face-blue-smiling::face-blue-smiling::face-blue-smiling:
  • @ayodontkys
    The Blender donut easter egg in the video is just hilarious. You might send a DM to Krispy Kreme to add a Blender Donut.
  • @karlmachnow4961
    I hope those sprinklers dont contain water. As anyone who had chemistry in school knows, the resulting explosion of the oil bath would be great to watch only from considerable distance.
  • @typryor2227
    1:18 I love those little Blender logo donuts near the bottom right!
  • @kean4073
    So Krispy Kreme only make a fraction of the amount of donuts that new blender users make each year 😂
