How about all of the above?

Purpose-built, and designed from the ground up, Olilu Coffee is first and foremost, a creative space.

“Say, what?”

- You, probably

In this context, creative space means that the space is inviting, thought provoking, and well equipped to explore possibilities, test hypotheses, and make mistakes (and learn from them).

This purpose extends to each and every facet of operations here at Olilu: Coffee, Design, Education, Community Outreach, and so on. A positive environment such as this drives versatility in our approach to problems, and enables an agile response to feedback and changing environments. We like to implement changes to processes and execute them in near real-time.

Here’s the nitty gritty.

It’s a lab.

Experiments happen day in and day out.

• Roast blending, brewing method experimentation, cupping.

• Testing equipment for smooth execution of the Olilu experience anywhere you go.

• Designing and re-designing walkthroughs and tutorials.

It’s a roasting space.

Built on an on-demand roasting model, Olilu’s space is efficient (goal zero-landfill) while clean, meeting and exceeding requirements set forth by the FDA’s Good Manufacturing Practices regulations (21 CFR Part 117 Subpart B) and international standards for food safety pre-requisite programs in food manufacturing (ISO Technical Specification 22002-1).

It makes a unique coffee experience possible.

As you get to know us better, and we, you, you’ll likely take a day out to sign up for one of our full fledged Olilu Experience tours at our digs.
