Default What's the secret to making it soft & fluffy?

I have a bread maker that I use for my whole wheat bread & I have a recipe that I really like. When I cut it warm, just out of the bread maker it is pretty soft. The only problem is the day after I bake my bread I put it in the fridge it is no longer soft & seems to be a lot heavier. Even warming it in the microwave doesn't really help soften it up much.

Does anyone have a good (easy) recipe for a bread maker for whole wheat bread that is soft & fluffy & will stay that way? My recipe calls for part wheat flour & part white flour.
Here are the ingredients I use in my bread:
1 1/4 cups water
3 T. honey
1 1/2 T. vegetable oil
1 2/3 cups white flour
1 1/2 cups wheat flour
1 1/2 t. salt
2 1/4 t. active dry yeast (or fast rising)

Any help would be appreciated!
