Hey guys,

I come to you with more questions. Couldn't find a whole lot on Google. I'm curious how everyone stores their counter-pressured filled bottles.

Let's say, if I bottle some from the keg. My beer is kept at 33 degrees and filling bottles is super easy with that. I put a cap on the beer and then the question is to store at room temp or keep it at the 33 degrees it was at. If I store it at room temp, then the beer will expand as it warms up and this will pressurize it more, over carbonating it. If I had it at room temp for a month or two and then chilled to 33 degrees, how long would I have to leave it at that temp before it unpressurized and returned to the "normal" carbonation?

Also, am I getting something wrong in this situation..?
 
Store it in the fridge or store it on the shelf. Just like beer you would buy at the store.
Relax, don't worry and have a (counterpressurefilledbottleof) homebrew
