If you want to know the disruptive innovations from the inventors themselves and the meaningful impact of practical principles of cannabis science, this is the podcast to explore. I review the current peer-reviewed literature, the inventors, the experts, and the business owners in cannabis. In the cannabis industry, it has been said that the cart is ahead of the horse. I respectfully disagree. I believe the horse has yet to be born.

    Solventless extraction system for cannabis processing with Rachel and Steve Sherwood

    Another solventless extraction system for cannabis processing. I was able to catch up with Rachel and Steve Sherwood to talk about the Loxley Systems. The system could do a minimum of 750 lbs and up to 100,000 lbs per day. They will discuss how they pivoted to smaller models that can be used on the benchtop and in batch and continuous mode. How they came into the business is fascinating to me, and the five years of development to May 2022.
