IdealApi Classic® Essential Syrup 13kg

Within Dulcofruct's catalog, IdealApi Classic® stands out as an essential syrup, offering a basic yet highly effective formulation. This syrup contains fundamental sugars such as fructose and glucose, and has a moisture content similar to honey (21-23%), making it particularly suitable for bees. Additionally, it is enriched with crucial microelements like Zinc (Zn) and Copper (Cu), which significantly contribute to the overall health and well-being of the bees.

The composition of IdealApi Classic® includes fructose (43-46%), glucose, and inverted sugars (total carbohydrates), all in an aqueous base with a reduced moisture content. This low moisture level (Dry Matter: 77.5-78.5%) not only optimizes the use of the IBC but also provides unique versatility: if a stimulating syrup in a 1:1 ratio is required, simply add water to obtain a significantly larger amount of syrup than the initial 13kg. With a monosaccharide content of 92-95%, IdealApi Classic® positions itself as one of the most easily assimilable syrups on the market.

This high monosaccharide content is crucial as it significantly surpasses most syrups available on the market, which often have a high number of polysaccharides. This difference is essential because bees cannot assimilate polysaccharides, making many of these syrups an inefficient investment. In contrast, IdealApi Classic®, with its high proportion of monosaccharides, ensures not only optimal assimilation by bees but also greater efficiency in the use of the beekeeper's resources, making this syrup an ideal and cost-effective option for feeding and nourishing hives.

What is the difference between feeding with homemade sugar+water syrup vs IdealApi Classic?

When it comes to beekeeping nutrition, it's crucial to understand that not all syrups are the same. The IdealApi line of syrups clearly stands out from the simple sugar and water mixture, thanks to its carefully balanced and enriched composition. Let's see why IdealApi is a superior choice for the well-being of your bees.

· Quality and Consistency Controlled: Each batch of IdealApi is rigorously controlled to ensure high and consistent quality. This includes checking pH, HMF (hydroxymethylfurfural), and other critical parameters. In contrast, homemade syrups can vary greatly in quality and composition, posing a risk to bee health.

· Optimal Carbohydrate Structure: IdealApi offers a balanced proportion of fructose, dextrose, and sucrose, which is crucial for effective nutrition. The presence of maltose and starch, which bees cannot efficiently process, is minimized, thus avoiding waste and economic loss. Homemade syrups, typically high in sucrose, do not provide this optimal balance, which can negatively affect bee health.

· Absence of Toxic Carbohydrates: IdealApi is manufactured under strict standards to avoid the presence of toxic carbohydrates, an inherent risk in homemade syrups due to inadequate cooking processes or poor quality control.

· Appropriate pH: The pH of IdealApi syrups is carefully adjusted to be as compatible as possible with the bees' needs, thus avoiding health issues that can arise with homemade syrups with unbalanced pH.

In summary, IdealApi syrups offer superior and safer nutrition compared to homemade syrups. They not only provide a more effective carbohydrate balance but also include additional components that promote the health and well-being of bees. For the conscientious beekeeper, choosing IdealApi is not only a matter of quality but also ensuring a smart and safe investment in the health of their hive.
