Noid Factoid Transcription:
Hi, I’m David sandelman from Cannatrol. We’re the producers of the Cool Cure for drying and curing your flower. And the Noid Factoid is, we are the sous vide for weed.
As David explains in the podcast, his beginnings in the cannabis industry came about by accident: “It was after developing a solution for cheese makers storing and aging cheese and the challenges they had getting the free available water out of the cheese and holding it so it can age. That led on to charcuterie and dry aged meats. And then after seeing and understanding the physics and science of what was going on there, there was the aha moment: I wonder if this would work with a cannabis flower, because the objective is the same, to get the free available water out, to get to shelf stability, and then hold it there. And so we built a prototype, put some flower in it, and the grower said, this is some of the finest flower he’s ever produced, after doing it for 20 years. So at that point, we said, aha, we might have something here, because we didn’t destroy his flower.”
