The Best Coffee in New Smyrna Beach: Why It Starts with Steel Oak
New Smyrna Beach is a surfer’s sanctuary with art festivals, bike paths, and quiet neighborhoods where porches matter more than pretension. When you’re out of the water and ready for the best coffee in New Smyrna Beach, you’ll find it starts with a roaster that treats each bean like a craft: Steel Oak Coffee.
Steel Oak Coffee: New Smyrna Beach’s Roastery
Though our roastery sits up the coast, Steel Oak feels right at home in New Smyrna’s creative spirit. We roast small‑batch, specialty‑grade coffee every week and invite you to join us each Saturday in Ormond to see the magic firsthand—because great coffee is better when you understand it.
Coffee Tastings (Every Other Friday)
Want to train your palate? Join our interactive coffee tasting sessions every other Friday. Explore origins, processing methods, and brew techniques with guidance from our team, and find the flavor profiles that fit your routine.
Brew Like a Local at Home
New isn’t just a café town—it’s a home‑brew town. With fresh Steel Oak beans and the right tools, you can pull café‑quality espresso or dial in a crystal‑clear pour over at home. We stock prosumer equipment—from Sanremo machines and Fiorenzato grinders to brewing innovations from Fellow and Ratio—so your setup can grow with your skills. Start here: For pour over, try a washed Colombia at a 1:16 ratio with water around 205°F. For espresso, begin with 18 g in, 36 g out in about 28 seconds, then fine‑tune taste by adjusting grind and yield. Need a refresher? For step‑by‑step ratios and techniques, see our flagship brew tutorial: How to Brew Better Coffee at Home.
