Mr. Espresso is a specialty coffee company founded in 1978 by Carlo Di Ruocco, based in Oakland, California. It operates as a full-service roaster and retailer, offering single-origin coffees, espresso blends, house blends, and decaffeinated options, including organic and fair trade choices, with a traditional wood-roasting method that aims to retain natural oils and produce a full-bodied, less acidic espresso. In addition to roasting and wholesale beans, the company distributes and sells espresso equipment from Italian manufacturers and is the exclusive distributor of Faema espresso machines in Northern California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada and Hawaii, with all equipment meeting UL and NSF standards. Mr. Espresso serves a Bay Area footprint and beyond, supporting coffeehouses and restaurants with beans, equipment, and service, and it remains a family-owned operation with two generations involved in the Oakland showroom and roasting facility. A recent development includes the launch of a co-fermented Sumatra coffee, announced in June 2026, reflecting ongoing product innovation alongside its traditional methods and equipment focus.
