Nice Bill. I'm jealous and wondering if yours is holey or a fine crumb!
My Uncle who is in his 90's said my Rye with caraway was strange with all the holes!
Hmm...after seeing Jeremy's unusual open/uneven crumb, Bill's small to medium crumb and my recent close crumb rye (I used 1/3 rye:1/3 strong wholemeal:1/3 strong plain white), it's time for a rye bake-off....just to see what controls this animal.
HI you competetive types!
I used Jeffrey Hamelmans recipe with a starter of rye that was inoculated with white starter 100% h20 and flour? I couldn't figure out the holiness either, but the tast, fab!

Oooo...identical triplets! Which one was adopted (from Graham)? I reckon you won't be able to tell the difference. Great job, Bill.

The Recipe for the rye loaf has been posted in the Recipes section.
Well here's a pic of the crumb. Small to medium holes but plenty of them.
Jeremy I know how he feels, I grew up on the dense Latvian and Polish rye loaves.

Extraordinary Rye Bill, the rise is really nice for a rye too!
