Not much- can be lost.
From Espro's reviews I learned that some brewed coffee stays in the Espro+ cleaning is not easier than Aeropress.

When I saw Brew1 it seemed like I could use my own coffee, add the water, push the button and all done. By reading reviews I found that It does not last long and choose to pass.

Any of the single serve machines that offer an adapter for using your own grounds I have tried are at least as messy with regard to clean up as the Aeropress. This means the time saving and convenience advantage over manual single cup brewing is nil...

For what it is worth I have a Black & Decker 1 cup brew and go and it reaches 195 degree temperature. I team this up with a Baratza grinder and it makes a great cup of coffee. It used a washable plastic filter too.

All this for around $20.00.

Are there better brewers ... sure ... just how fancy a brewer do you need?

My 2 cents.
