We started at ground zero. We heavily relied on Cask to create a beverage production process from setting up tanks through to the canning system. The canning system has been producing cans since the minute it was commissioned and is very plug-and-play. Within 6 hours of setting up and training our guys were running it by themselves.

The Challenge

Baked Chicken Farm, New Mexico's largest indoor perpetual grow operation, was renowned for its agricultural prowess. However, the farm faced a challenge when it decided to pivot into the THC beverage market—a completely new frontier for them. With no prior experience in beverage manufacturing, they needed to build a production facility from scratch and ensure a seamless transition from cannabis cultivation to producing high-quality beverages. Key hurdles included:

  • Developing a scalable beverage formulation without prior expertise.
  • Setting up production infrastructure with minimal downtime.
  • Avoiding the costly mistakes and inefficiencies that lead to "equipment graveyards" in the cannabis industry, where underutilized machinery gathers dust.

Baked Chicken Farm sought a partner who could provide not only equipment but also a complete beverage production solution tailored to their unique needs.

The Solution

Baked Chicken Farm installed the Nano ACS canning system—a plug-and-play solution that made the entire process remarkably simple. In just six hours after setup, the team was running the system on their own, turning 20 BBL of beverage into 6,600 cans in a single production day.

  1. Rapid Time-to-Market: From setting up tanks to operational production, Baked Chicken Farm built a new revenue stream in just two months.
  2. Sustainable Growth: By leveraging a low-cost, high-ROI solution like the Nano ACS, they avoided the common pitfall of underutilized equipment in the cannabis industry. Their system is already scaling to meet increasing market demand for fast-acting edibles.
  3. Ease of Adoption: Even without prior experience, the team quickly mastered the canning process, demonstrating how plug-and-play technology can empower businesses to diversify operations.

The Results

The ease of use and rapid implementation meant that Baked Chicken Farm didn’t just avoid the dreaded "equipment graveyard" common in the cannabis industry—they hit the ground running. "We can produce about $50,000 worth of canned product a day," Tony explained. "That’s significant, especially considering the low production costs and high demand in the THC beverage market."

In just two months, Baked Chicken Farm went from concept to production, proving that you don’t need years of experience to break into the beverage industry. With a scalable system and minimal overhead, they’ve unlocked a whole new revenue stream, setting the stage for growth in New Mexico and beyond.
