StreetSurf
You like the Snowboard and all the sensation which go with ?! or the Surf sensation ?!
Test this !
You need only a street, it is easier than to go to the sea or to the mountain!
The key points of StreetSurf:
* For the beginners, it is very easy to begin and to evolve quickly.
* If you are Surfer or Snowboarder, the practice of Streetsurf will be immediate. You can find the sensations of glide of the Surfing (on the flat) and of Snowbard (on slope).
* You can enjoy yourself on the flat, make slaloms and put fixations to make jumps and make of FreeStyle.
* If you controlle this very well , you can test on bigs slope , and then you'll have fun !!
The position 1 facilitates the skid on a big slope. The skid allows to slow down or to stop. This technique is very connected to the Snowboard.
The position 2 allows to move on the flatdish by pumping. The movement of freedom is thus close to the Surfing.
So its an alternative of go to surf or snow , and you can do this everywhere everytime , it's very fun , but if you fall , tok tok ^^ ! For the Beginners its better to take an helmet !!!
If you wan to see what is this in video : Streetsurf!!
Have fun !!
the glide = la glisse
the slope = la pente
Skid = dérapage

Milling
So let us see what is the Milling :
Once dried, the malt is crushed in sort of unrefined flour which will be of use to the following operations.
This flour is called the grist.
For the milling of the malt, the operation which takes place in the distillery, with a seeds-mill .Most of the distilleries use the same type of mill, traditionally made in England, into Leeds, what sometimes strikes the chauvinistic spirit of many Scottish people....
next step : Mashing
seeds-mill = moulin à grain

Malting
After Harvest barley contains starch which is a non fermentiscible sugar. The processus of malting is to transform this starch into fermentiscible sugar which will be able to be transformed into alcohol.
The barley is put into water for 2 or 3 days and then it is put on a wide flat concrete surface.
And it's here that the fermentation will begin for about 8 days.
Barley will have to be turned over several times a day to make a uniform germination and the température must be controlled many times.
When the Starch has been transformed into sugar, we must stop the process of germination through the heating of the barley for 1 to 2 days. Heat will be provided by the burning of coal.
And then you get some malt to use in the next step : the Milling !
Starch = amidon
fermentiscible = Enter fermentation
Milling = Broyage

the making of whisky
We can make whisky with different maneer .
It depend of your skill , what sort of whisky do you want to do , and in particular to the geographical origin of production. The main differences are related to the raw material, which is always a cereal, and on the type of distillation .
So it cant make different types of whisky corresponding to various definitions , the main sort of whisky are Blended whisky, Single Malt whisky and Grain whisky.
The better whisky are often isued from the distillation of malted barley .
For me , the best whisky is make with the Pure Malt , and the scottish make this very well ( it's call the scotch pure malt ) . I'll show you how to do this sort of whiskey , with the main step .
To produce a Malt Whisky, you need barley, water, yeast, heat and much time.
This process can be broken down in five main steps :
- Malting
- Milling
- Mashing
- Fermentation
- Distillation
- Ageing
I'll explain each steap at the next time !
to help you to understand and to work your vocabulary :
malted barley : orge maltée
yeast : levure
Malting : le maltage
Milling : le broyage
Mashing : le brassage
Ageing : le vieillissement

hey !!
Hello , my name is Erwan,
I study in Lisieux , this is in Normandie , in the North of France .
what do I study ? its just statistics and data analysis .We make some maths , statistics , data mining,
Algorithm and programming , and some general subjects like English , economics .
Our English teacher told us to make a blog on our life to try to write a good English but as you know the French people are not good in this language ( maybe in French too ) and this blog is an example of my level !! But I think it's interesting to speak in English about us because we will make less mistakes after this ( I hope ! ).
