The question has been asked but I am unclear on the answer. I lagered my beer and now am bottle conditioning. It has been at 70 degrees for 7 days can I move it back to the fridge to finish ? If not is 70 the best temp and for how long?

Leave it at 70 for another couple of weeks, until it is fully carbed. Then move it into the fridge.
Thanks. Just tried one it's too early I know but already very good. One worry, I believe I poured a little too vigorously and got a little sediment off bottom. No big deal I skimmed it off top and it was fine but as small as it was my worry is it was green. Bacterial infection? The beer was not only good but very good. Should I be ok or do I need to do something to protect the 44 bottles left. They have a week left before going in fridge. Thanks for the help

What was green? The sediment your poured from bottle to glass? Did you use hop pellets? I wouldn't change the plan.
