After bottling

[StevieBrew]

Hi guys,
After I bottle am I able to put the beer in the fridge? Or do I need to wait the 2 weeks while it carbonates? Thanks in advance.

Don't refrigerate for 10 days to two weeks. Then cool one and sample.

I try to wait 3 weeks bottled at ambient temp ...."try," that is

What they said ^^^^. The reason is that you need to keep the beer at a temperature that they yeast will work at, if you refrigerate it before they eat up your priming solution and produce CO2, they will just go to sleep (metaphorically) and not do their work. You will have flat beer. High 60s to mid 70s is good for bottle carbing.
