muntons kits

Hi All, newbie here. Had been toying with the idea of giving home brewing a try for a little while and recently got an extract kit – one of BrewUK’s bucket + pressure barrel sets with the Muntons American IPA beer kit. Spoiler alert: somethings not quite right with the beer! So was hoping if...

This time the Muntons staid in the keg. The secondary fermentation must have been quite good, as the pressure is considerable. For priming: 135g Muscovado sugar, dissolved in 200ml Aldi pressed apple juice Last reading: 1.000, resulting alcohol = 7.47% Anything special? = no bubbles came up...

1.) If brewing Muntons Continental Pilsner is it possible to achieve a more lager flavour by adding some Saaz hop pellets? 2.) I am a newbie so forgive my lack of knowledge. 3.) Are pellets simply added or are can they be boiled (in a bag) first? 4). Is this pointless or not recommended...
