The Best Coffee in Ormond Beach: Why It Starts with Steel Oak
Ormond Beach has its own rhythm—ocean breezes, slow mornings, and a community that appreciates doing things the right way. When it comes to coffee, that means skipping the hype and choosing beans roasted with intention. The best coffee in Ormond Beach begins at Steel Oak Coffee.
Steel Oak Coffee: Ormond Beach’s Roastery
Since 2016, Steel Oak has roasted small-batch, specialty-grade coffee with a simple goal: clarity and flavor without shortcuts. Every Saturday, the roastery opens its doors so you can step into the process—smell fresh roasts, ask questions, and leave with beans at their peak.
Coffee Tastings (Every Other Friday)
Want to train your palate? Join our interactive coffee tasting sessions every other Friday. Explore origins, processing, and brew methods with guidance from our team, and find the flavor profiles that fit your routine.
Brew Like a Local at Home
Ormond Beach 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 support serious hobbyists with prosumer equipment—including Sanremo espresso machines, Fiorenzato grinders, and home-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 18g in, 36g out in ~28 seconds, then fine-tune taste by adjusting grind and yield.
