Is my freshly bottled beer going to be OK?

[Deadalive]

It's been cold this week -35c/-31f and my house is older and not well insulated. I keep my secondary/freshly bottled beer in a closet. I haven't checked on it all week till tonight, the temp in my closet is around 9c/48f. I moved everything out but is my freshly bottled beer (last week) going to be OK? Are they going to carbonate now that their in a warmer place ( around 20c/68f)?

At 68F, they'll carbonate just fine. You may want to gently turn them end over end, just to resuspend any yeast that might have went dormant when they were below 50 degrees. They'll wake up and get going once they get warmed up again.

Ship it to me so I can get it up to the proper carbonating temps. I'll keep it at 20c
for you for a couple of weeks and let you know how they turn out. LOL.

Yeah, they'll be fine, I'm facing the same dilemma, my house is freezing, so I'm keeping them in the over with just the light on, and it keeps them right around 72F.

Cool, thanks for the info. I was worried I ruined the batch.

No worries. In fact, a lot of guys here will be jealous of a place to keep beer at that temp. You're getting close to lagering temps, keep your eyes out for some good yeasts and take advantage of this.
