DaVinci EQ Quartz Crucible
About DaVinci EQ Quartz Crucible
The Davinci EQ Quartz Crucible is the chamber that holds your concentrate directly above the EQ's heater. The heater, base, O-ring, and retention ring are the same across every EQ crucible option. Davinci designed two different crucibles designed to satisfy different usage cases. The Quartz variation, which comes with the unit, is made for flavor purity (which quartz is known for).

You Should Buy the Davinci EQ Quartz Crucible If…
You should buy the Davinci EQ Quartz Crucible if your current one is cracked, scratched, or so dirty that the gunk won't come off. It is also a good option for any user who wants to make sure they have a fresh one on hand, so they don't need to wait for a replacement when needed.
How to Install the Quartz Crucible
The crucible sits directly on top of the heater and locks in with a retention ring, so no tools are necessary.
Here's how to install the Quartz Crucible:
- Power off the EQ and unscrew the retention ring to remove the old crucible and O-ring.
- Place the new Quartz Crucible onto the heater.
- Place the O-ring back on and screw the retention ring down until snug.
- Power the EQ on and run your session as usual.
Quartz vs. Zirconia: What Actually Changes
Quartz is non-porous and chemically inert, so it doesn't hold on to flavor from previous sessions the way a ceramic surface can. Zirconia is a more advanced, denser ceramic that retains heat better and keeps flavor cleaner, but it is still more porous than quartz (which is more like glass). Quartz is a bit more like glass because it's also transparent, so you can see exactly how much concentrate is loaded and when it's fully vaporized.
Cleaning the Quartz Crucible
Cleaning the crucible is an essential part of keeping the Davinci EQ working at maximum capacity. Simple cleaning can be done after every session with a quick swab of the crucible with alcohol-filled Q-tips. For a deeper clean, remove the crucible from the heater, soak it in isopropyl alcohol, rinse it with water, and dry it fully before putting it back on.
