What kind of maintenance is needed with something like this? Would I need to run a vinegar mixture through it regularly to clean like a regular coffee pot setup?
Yes, but not that often. The only thing actually going through the machine is water, so it takes a long time to get dirty at all unless you're dumping bad water in it or not wiping off the group head after use. We did have to replace the group gasket once, which was a $2 piece of rubber I could easily put on myself.
But you're supposed to put it on the coffee machine.
