WPM KD-360S Semi-Automatic Espresso Machine, 9 Bar
Guaranteed Safe Checkout
A WPM espresso machine for hands-on home shotsOne vibration pump, one stainless boiler, and a tank you can lift out to fill.
The WPM KD-360S is a semi-automatic home espresso machine that runs on a built-in vibration pump rated at 9 bar extraction pressure. A stainless steel boiler of 0.35 L (350 ml, 11.8 oz) supplies the steam, the brew head is copper alloy, and the removable tank holds 1.6 L (1600 ml, 54.1 oz). It suits a home brewer who wants to dose, tamp and pull each shot by hand, and who is happy to brew and steam in turn.
- 9 bar vibration pump
- Removable 1600 ml (54.1 oz) tank
- Stainless steel boiler
- Steam from the same boiler
What a single boiler means at your counter
This machine has one boiler, not two. The spec sheet lists it as a single boiler for steam, and that same stainless steel boiler heats the water for your shot. It keeps the build simpler than a dual boiler setup, and it shapes the way you work each morning.
In practice you pull the espresso first and steam second. For one or two drinks before work, that order barely registers. For a row of cappuccinos when friends come over, it means a short pause between each shot and its milk.
The pump is the other half of the design. It is a vibration pump that sits inside the body and pushes water through the copper alloy brew head at the 9 bar extraction pressure printed on the sheet.
About the pressure claim
What the spec sheet confirms is one built-in vibration pump and 9 bar extraction pressure. The supplier describes the pressure as adjustable, yet no range is published, so think of it as a 9 bar machine with some control rather than a full profiling machine.
Three figures from the spec sheet
The parts that shape your cup
Copper alloy brew head
The brew head is made of copper alloy. It is the point where heated water meets your ground coffee on every single shot you pull.
Stainless steel boiler
A 350 ml (11.8 oz) stainless steel boiler heats the water and supplies steam. Stainless steel makes sense for a part that spends its working life hot and wet.
Three-way thermal mixing
The spec sheet names a three-way thermal mixing system and lists it together with the brew head and the boiler. WPM publishes no more detail than that, so we will not guess at how it works.
Steam comes from that one boiler, so milk drinks follow the shot.
Who will enjoy this machine
A good fit if you
- Want to pull shots by hand on a semi automatic espresso machine
- Make one or two drinks at a time, espresso first and milk after
- Like a water tank that lifts out for refills at the sink
- Are learning to dial in your dose at a steady 9 bar
Look elsewhere if you
- Need to brew and steam at the same moment for a crowd. A dual boiler such as the LELIT Bianca V3 handles both at once.
- Want hands-on control of flow through every shot, which is what the Milesto EM-50VFE with VFE flow control is built around.
Everything the sheet lists
Questions people ask about it
Is this a dual pump espresso machine?
No. The spec sheet lists one built-in vibration pump. Some descriptions of this machine have mentioned a dual pump, and the sheet does not support that.
Can you brew espresso and steam milk at the same time?
Plan on working in turn. The single stainless boiler supplies the steam, so you pull the shot first and steam afterward. That rhythm suits a couple of drinks in a row better than a full tray for guests.
Does it have pressure profiling?
Not as a confirmed feature. The sheet gives 9 bar extraction pressure with no profiling range. The supplier calls the pressure adjustable, so if shaping each shot is your main reason to buy, check that detail with us before you order.
How much water does the tank hold?
It holds 1600 ml (54.1 oz). The tank is made from food-grade materials and lifts out, so you can take it to the tap for refilling and then slide it back into the machine.
Is this a good home espresso machine for learning espresso?
Yes, if you like to learn by doing. As a semi-automatic home espresso machine it leaves the dose and the tamp to you, while the 9 bar pump and stainless boiler take care of pressure and heat. Add a scale and you can repeat a good shot instead of guessing.
