Dark Side of the Moon!
I have a AG New Old Ale (Wyeast #1084) and a AG Oatmeal Stout (Wyeast #1084) in a primary at 63 deg. since last Saturday 3/24.

They were pretty inactive last night and I removed them from My cooler (a old dairy case set to maintain 63 degs.) and moved them to my bench. Temp is 70 deg.

This morning I was going to move them to the secondary and they have a new life.

New Old Ale Bubbling @ every 8 second. Stout @ every 45 second.
I'm not sure if this is from moving them from the cooled which means I have to lean the carboys a little to the side to lift them out or just the temp change.

I wanted to try to fermtate them at the lower end of the scale and try them ves. the last batch which I fermetated at the upper end.
62-70 deg is the recomended temp.

It looks like I can move the stout but shoud wait with the Old Ale.

Should I return the Old Ale to the cooler?
 
check the gravity with your hydrometer.
that will tell you if the temp change is causing the bubbles or there is more to ferment and the cold inhibited the fermentation
