The plastic bag will contribute to the softening of the crust- its impermeable, so the evaporation of the remnant water in the bread will soften the crust.
I've found paper bags to be a good solution, or just a good bread bin.
Some softening is inevitable, however, and some just store it cut side down on a counter.
I normally put water into the oven to try and create a crust (along with sugar in the recipe). Hotheadedness crust goes soft are a short while. How are people storing bread once it is ready to eat. We put in a plastic bag which I’m thinking might be wrong!!
