Yeah, it only took 6 months and I-don't-know-how-many trials, but I finally got 2 loaves of what I would call pumpernickel. AND they stayed moist and edible for several weeks in the fridge! I ended up using basically a recipe in "Naturally Great Foods", a Rodale Press cookbook I've had for over 20 years.

I did do some tweaking of the recipe (can't help it), and plan to do some more before I feel I have a recipe to write down and use over again, but it's definitely the best so far…

Just look at the yummy grains in the close-up!
