Here is a excerpt on the section discussing Sproutly from todays chicagotribune.com article;

" “Water soluble is a bit of a stretch. ... (Putting straight powder) into the cocktails lines the shaker, but if it sits awhile, it dissolves a little bit better,” she said. “What we have now is good, and I feel confident in it, but we’re also looking into other options and new products as well.”

A BETTER WAY ACROSS THE BORDER?

Hurd said that many cannabinoid companies are adapting their water-soluble methods from pharmaceutical companies. Between that and the medicinal legal origins of cannabis, it makes sense that a bioscience company in Canada claims to have the first naturally water-soluble formula for cannabinoids.

The potentially revelatory process comes from Sproutly, which owns the (Canadian) legal rights to cannabinoid extraction equipment called A.P.P., or aqueous phyto-recovery process. Sproutly CEO Keith Dolo explained how the A.P.P. equipment works, a process he called “leeching” or “fermenting” rather than “extraction.”

“We take a cannabis biomass and a formula that is derived of grass-certified compounds. Salt, sugar, water and vinegar, where we’ve mixed in a certain formulation, a specific reagent package. It looks like a liter of water when you look at it,” Dolo said. “It’s passed over and circulated over the cannabis plant. ... When it’s strained out, it has these water-soluble molecules embedded within the water reagent package, which you could drink (by itself), and we never even touched the free oils.”

It’s a pretty bold claim. “Free oils” are what virtually every cannabinoid company yields during extraction processes, and what they use to manufacture their products. With its method, Sproutly gets a double-yield from each plant. The company calls this unique water-soluble solution Infuz20.

Aside from the potentially enhanced solubility and bioavailability of Infuz20, Dolo also said the company was glad to avoid adding an emulsifier, technically a chemical additive.

“Companies try to limit the amount of chemicals in drinks, not add more,” he said. “Not only from a moral standpoint, and not only from a health perspective, there’s a flavor issue. … It’s a completely bitter taste.”

Dolo said Sproutly is currently focusing north of the U.S. border in preparation for the legalization of recreational cannabis in Canada. And while Sproutly does not own the rights to the A.P.P. technology in the U.S. — that still belongs to Toronto-based biotech lab Infusion Biosciences — Dolo said he doesn’t anticipate anyone bringing A.P.P.-created cannabis products stateside in the near future.

“I don’t know if it will get into the U.S. until the federal border allows (cannabis),” he said.
