RE:RE:RE:Ontario awards grant to help develop cannabis brew

RE:RE:RE:Ontario awards grant to help develop cannabis brewTo be fair, at first I thought the same thing thinking, 'Canopy has govt backing in development of weed beer!'   The article somewhat made it sound canopy was doing this with province brands.  The article is about two companies both going after the beverage market, not working together.  But it has some information that I think is crucial for digestibles - to make it fast acting:

"Canopy is creating a clear cannabis distillate that can be produced with various tastes and smells, Linton says, a “platform” that can be used for a variety of beverages that will have few or no calories.

Canopy is also developing a technological solution to a major drawback of edible cannabis products now on the market: it can take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours before the user feels the effects, which can also last for hours. 

One major U.S. cannabis drink maker, Dixie Elixirs, includes an “activation guide” with its drinks to warn users how long they can expect to wait before feeling a buzz.

That creates problems for novice users who have trouble gauging how much to consume, or don’t feel anything at first so try more and end up overdoing it.

It also doesn’t conform to how people typically use alcohol, the most common mind-altering substance. Wendschuh sketches a typical scenario: someone stops after work for a drink, then goes home within an hour or two. No one wants to wait two hours to feel the effects, then still be experiencing them late into the evening, he says.

Both Wendschuh and Linton say their companies are developing technology to create drinks with rapid-onset effects, although they are reluctant to go into details to protect their commercial advantage.

Linton says Canopy’s goal is to have cannabis drinks that take effect in seven to 12 minutes, similar to alcohol."
