Capacity by Species
Approximate maximum capacities. The Maxi 48 Advance is supplied with the hen and duck quadrants; the goose and quail quadrant sets are available separately.
Built for Hatching Success
The Maxi 48 Advance is menu driven and extremely easy to use. Just program the length of incubation for your species and the micro-controller holds the correct temperature and turning with no further input, counting down each day to tell you when the eggs are due to hatch and stopping turning automatically two days before hatching. Humidity is provided by water trays with convenient external top-up, so there is no need to open the incubator to add water.
This model is not suitable for automatic humidity control. If you would rather the incubator held humidity for you through an integral pump, look at the Maxi 48 EX, or the Maxi 48 EX Connect if you also want the machine on your phone. The mix and match quadrant system lets you run more eggs of one size or several sizes at once - the hen and duck sets are included, with goose and quail sets available separately.

Full product details, manual & warranty
The Maxi 48 Advance doubles the capacity of the Maxi 24 in the same familiar tabletop format. You get fully automatic turning, a digital control system with alarms and count down to hatch day, and Brinsea's mix and match quadrant system - with humidity managed the simple way, by topping up the water trays.
This is the model to choose if you want to step up to 48 eggs without moving to a cabinet incubator, and you are happy to manage humidity yourself. If you would rather the incubator held humidity for you automatically, look at the Maxi 48 EX or the app controlled Maxi 48 EX Connect.
