Did I kill my yeast, or is it dormant

[Dacino]

Newbie, bottled my first batch/AG batch and put it in the fridge to carbonate for 2 weeks. A day later my homebrew buddy told me I was supposed to leave it out to carbonate for the 2 weeks.

Basically, after bottling and priming I put the beer in a fridge for 24 hours then took it out at room temp 68. Will it carbonate or will I have issues?

Thanks

It should be fine. You can turn the bottles end over end to resuspend any yeast that flocculated out, and then leave them alone for three weeks at 70 degrees to carbonate.

Exactly what Yoop said. Also, the title immediately made me think of...

Your yeast isn't dead, it's only resting.

edit because the board truncated everything in my post after the Youtube link.
