Page 10: Operating Instructions
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE FIRST USE Remove all packaging materials and check to ensure that all parts and accessories are accounted for. Read all stickers and remove the ones that are not permanent. Remove the water reservoir from the unit (see p. 13) and remove the orange plastic tab from the bottom of the reservoir. - Page 11 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS PRIMING THE EASY-BREW ESPRESSO MACHINE The unit must be primed before first use and after extended periods of disuse when the unit goes completely dry. This will push water into the unit’s internal parts and release air from inside the pump.
- Page 12 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE CUP While the espresso machine dispenses standard single and double cups of espresso, it also allows you to brew coffee manually so you can choose how much water is dispensed (see p. 17). A standard single cup of espresso yields approximately 1–1.5 fl oz, and a double yields approximately 2–2.5 fl oz.
- Page 13 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO FILL THE WATER RESERVOIR To fill the reservoir with water, you may either use a pitcher to fill it while on the unit or remove it from the unit to fill at the sink. To remove, gently lift the reservoir straight up from the unit. Lift the lid until the hinges are completely extended, then tilt the lid forward until it rests up over the front of the reservoir.
- Page 14 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO CHOOSE AND INSERT THE PORTAFILTER BASKET To insert the basket into the portafilter, align the tab on the basket with the corresponding groove in the portafilter. Drop the basket in and twist it slightly to ensure it is locked into place. Use the smaller basket for a single shot of espresso and the larger basket for a double shot.
- Page 15 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO PLACE THE PORTAFILTER ON THE BREW HEAD Position the portafilter underneath the brew head with its handle facing to the left. 2. With one hand on top of the unit to steady it, insert the portafilter up into the brew head, lining up the handle with the open lock icon on the unit.
- Page 16 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO MAKE A STANDARD ESPRESSO Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through finely ground coffee beans for a richer and more full-bodied brew than regular drip. Because of its strength, espresso is usually served in small portions (about 1.5 to 2.5 fl oz) in demitasse cups.
- Page 17 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: To avoid possible burns from hot steam and water or damage to the unit, never remove the water reservoir or the portafilter while brewing or using the steam wand. If you intend to make a second cup, be sure the unit is in standby mode—all buttons except STEAM will be lit and solid—before removing or inserting the portafilter.
- Page 18 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO FROTH MILK The steam wand allows you to heat and froth milk. Frothed milk can be added to your espresso to make a macchiato, cappuccino, or latte, or to other hot drinks—such as hot chocolate—to give them a light, foamy topping. For a macchiato, add just a splash of steamed milk;...
- Page 19 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Continue frothing the milk for a few seconds more until there is no steam left. Then, turn the steam control knob to its OFF position. CAUTION: Turning the steam control knob OFF before exiting steam mode can trap steam in the unit and cause it to temporarily overheat.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE To keep your coffee and hot water tasting fresh, we recommend rinsing the water reservoir frequently and cleaning your espresso machine often using the following instructions. HOW TO CLEAN THE PORTAFILTER AND BREW HEAD Before cleaning, turn off the unit and unplug it. Some of the metal parts might still be hot. Do not touch them with your hands until they have cooled. - Page 24 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE DESCALING Mineral deposits that build up in the unit over time will affect the operation of the Easy-Brew Espresso Machine.

- Page 25 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Press the DOUBLE-SHOT button to “brew” a double shot of espresso. The button will remain lit during brewing and the unit will automatically return to standby mode when brewing is complete. Discard the water from the cup. 8.

How to descale chefman espresso machine RJ54-SS-15-CA
To descale the Chefman EASY-BREW RJ54-SS-15 espresso machine, follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Descaling Mixture: Fill the water reservoir with fresh, undiluted white vinegar.
2. Let It Sit: Allow the vinegar to sit in the reservoir for about 8 hours. You may leave the reservoir on the unit during this time.
3. Run the Descale Cycle:
- Press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Place a cup under the brew head.
- Press the MANUAL button to brew until no descaling mixture is left in the reservoir.
4. Rinse the Reservoir: Fill the reservoir with fresh water. Repeat steps 3–5 three times to flush out the unit, letting it rest briefly between cycles to avoid overheating.
5. Final Cleaning: Use the MANUAL button to brew until no water is left to remove any residual vinegar.
6. Reset the Descaling Alert (if applicable):
- Ensure the unit is in standby mode.
- Press and hold the DOUBLE-SHOT and MANUAL buttons for 3 seconds. The buttons will blink three times, resetting the cycle count to zero.
This ensures your machine is properly descaled and ready for fresh-tasting coffee.
