Each release is thoughtfully curated to offer a distinctive and memorable coffee experience for true coffee lovers.

Exceptional Coffee. Unwavering Integrity. Ormond Beach Roots.

Steel Oak Coffee exists for one reason: to deliver exceptional, specialty coffee—roasted with obsessive attention to integrity and flavor—for people who know the difference.

Born in Ormond Beach. Built on Craft.

Founded in 2016 by Carl and Michele Dupper, Steel Oak Coffee began as a passion project in a coastal Florida garage. Tired of the lackluster coffee options in Ormond Beach and the surrounding area, the Duppers started roasting at night, perfecting their craft with every batch. Early releases were shared at local farmers markets and the aroma of their small-batch roasts quickly spread. Steel Oak quickly earned a reputation among true coffee enthusiasts for being the best coffee in Ormond Beach, adding fuel to a local movement that demands better coffee.

Raising the Bar for Florida Coffee

What started with friends and neighbors has grown into one of Florida’s most respected craft coffee roasters. Steel Oak Coffee’s beans now power local favorites like Gold Leaf Coffee Co., Yes Coffee Co., and Soraya Mediterranean Café, bringing third-wave coffee culture to Florida’s Atlantic Coast.

Where Coffee Meets Community

In 2023, Steel Oak Coffee opened its current dedicated roastery at 187 S. Yonge St. in Ormond Beach, dramatically increasing its production capacity. Open Saturdays from 9am–1pm, the tastefully designed space invites you to experience specialty coffee up close: watch roasting in real time, sample fresh brews, and connect with fellow coffee lovers. As described by Daily Coffee News, Steel Oak has become “a welcome canopy for the coffee community along Florida’s Atlantic Coast.”
