Product Review from CannaSoul Analytics / Psyga Bio Ltd. from Israel

Holland Green Science is very proud to work together with one of the pioneers on medicinal cannabis knowledge, CannaSoul Israel. We were able to supply CannaSoul with our high-end lab extraction equipment to support the great work they do every day. Read below about the products they are currently using and the success they have achieved with Holland Green Science lab equipment.

Yaniv Lerenthal, VP of R&D at Psyga Bio Ltd., spoke about our partnership by saying, “We at Psyga Bio Ltd. have recently acquired products from Holland Green Science for our
mushroom cultivation and research facility and have been using the equipment for a few months now. Generally, our impression of the equipment is positive. Everything is nicely designed with an easy user interface and high durability. All the equipment was packed thoroughly and arrived in a timely manner and fully intact.”


Among the products used by CannaSoul, Yaniv felt that the ones listed below are worth mentioning in a more detailed review.

 


The Aqua Vitae 5L Performance Pack

The Holland Green Science Aqua Vitae 5L Performance Pack includes everything you need for efficient solvent evaporation with electronic process control at a package price.

The performance pack consists of the following products:
● Aqua Vitae Maximus 5L Rotary Evaporator
● Aeolus Vacuum Controller
● Aquilon Chiller
● Zephyrus Chemistry Diaphragm Vacuum Pump
● Hose Pack Kit


The CannaSoul review,

“​​This is a good Rotary Evaporator system for up to 2 Liter flask volume, with a high-performance chiller and an easy-to-use controller. Assembling the system was easy and did not require use of the manual. The vacuum pump is robust (Zephyrus Midi) and was able to easily reach and maintain the 40-50 mbar needed for our process. The Aeolus Vacuum controller is user friendly and responsive. Overall, a good cost effective Rotary Evaporator system.”

 


The Hephaestus V094 Vacuum Oven

The Hephaestus vacuum oven is designed for drying and vacuum purging materials which are thermosensitive, oxidative or easily decomposable. This includes cannabis flower just as much as shatter or isolates. To further reduce oxidation e.g. to protect THCa you can purge or vent the oven with inert gas to displace any oxygen present.

The CannaSoul review,

“This is a mid-range vacuum oven with 4 shelves that are connected to heating apparatus making the temperature evenly distributed throughout the chamber. The sensors are giving a read per shelf, which is informative to keeping the temperature stable. Controller and setup are simple and user friendly which is a common theme for all Holland Greens equipment. The oven is mounted on wheels which makes moving it around easy if needed. We connected the oven to a diaphragm pump which handled the vacuum easily and dried small samples quickly. When overloading the oven with wet mushroom material the humidity was too high and condensed moisture appeared which had to be purged out by opening air flow. The system is nicely designed and works perfectly when not overloaded. The Holland green science technical support engineer recommended replacing the pump for better performance.”

 


The Thermotita 20L Water Bath

The Thermotita is a perfect water bath to help regulate the temperature of cannabis crude, oils, tinctures and distillates. It has a stainless steel lid that allows for easy cleaning and an LCD screen for simple control of the bath.

The CannaSoul review,

“This water bath has a nice design and easy controller setup. The water bath has a drain hose for easy clean and replacement of cooling fluid (as does the Holland greens chillers.) The head cover is design to shift all condensed vapor to the side with hardly any loss of water during long incubation. adding a shaking apparatus or a magnetic stirring option would be a great addition for our uses.”
