Hey Guys, 

I have been trying to make some sourdough rye bread with a mix of rye and white flour and it doesn't seem to work. By looking at the picture what is wrong or what am I messing up? 

This is the recipe:

The first time I made it the bread was way less dense and wasn't as tall which was actually better. What do you think is happening here? 

if I want to make white sourdough bread can I use rye starter? Some recipes say white sourdough starter. Does that matter and how do I turn my rye starter into white starter?
