With a normal espresso maker, you measure out the coffee grounds (gunpowder), pour them into the chamber, tamp them down, then pull the trigger/make the coffee.
With a K-cup, you just put in a capsule and fire away.

Whenever I see that name, I think they’re missing a word. Is it supposed to be Black Powder Rifle Coffee company?
No. “Black rifle” is an umbrella term loosely referring to modern, lightweight, polymer or aluminum-frame rifles that became common starting around the 1960s.
Sources differ, but some sources claim it’s a reference to the name the Vietnamese gave the M16 during the Vietnam War, which translates literally back into English as “black rifle”. It’s worth noting that none of the sources I could find which make this claim provide the original, Vietnamese name.
