Why no Carbonation?

Hi all, did a Brewers Best Red Ale by the recipe.

After two weeks, there is barely a hiss after popping the cap and the beer is flat with no head at all. Any input? Thanks

How's the temperature where the bottles are sitting?

60 on a basement floor.

That's a bit cool, and two weeks is too early to worry. My last pale ale barely carbed at all for the first three weeks, then between weeks three and four, it carbed up perfectly. Give it time.

Yeh my buddy was just here and he did a nut brown ale. In 10 days its unreal, beautiful creamy thick head and great flavor.

I'll bring it upstairs where its closer to 70.

Thanks
