I bottled using drops. Left for around 3 weeks at 70ish. Like a fool, I put all the bottles in the fridge before checking for carbonation. I have small white specks floating around, but no carbonation. Can I pull the bottles out, warm to room temperature, and finish carbonation? Thanks!!!!

Semper Fi,

yep. give them a shake, too. if they fail to carbonate, you could open each one, sprinkle a tad of dry yeast in the bottle, and recap them all.
 
Thanks PoB. I also have the option of dumping them into a keg (I usually keg 3 gallons and bottle the rest) but I only ended up bottling around 12 (small batch). So it isn't quite worth going through kegging. Thanks again.
