Better than just flour and water

I need help to find a better recipe for the sourdough bread. I am just starting baking and my goal is to bake whole rye bread. Unfortunattely, several days ago I did so much whole rye that I ate just half of what I baked. At the same time I still have extra starter which I need to feed anyway - I do not like an idea to put it to fridge. So I tryed couple of times simple sourdough bread, which was working OK, but not perfect. While I still need to sharpen my tecniques in baking plain bread I would like to try some different texture bread. I am thinking about adding oil, milk and sugar to it. I remember, that extra ingredients made huge difference when I used my baking machine. Does somebody know of a recipe for 100% sourdough with more than just wheat flour, but not extra fruits, rasins, etc., just bread? I have spent over an hour looking though recipes on this forum as well on many other sites on the web, but could not find simething interesting.

Thank you in advance

You don't have to use goats milk.
