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.

    I wouldn’t call an Espresso machine a “regular coffee machine”. That would be more like some kind of drip machine.

    Espresso is very different from regular coffee.

    But you get the upvote because it’s a good shower thought.
