I'm semi new to home brewing and I'm priming my beer prior to bottling for carbonation. Most of the beers I have done requires me to ferment at 68 to 70 degrees. Do I need to maintain that same temp with my bottles while I waiting for them to carbonate? Also after the bottles are carbonated is there a temp that they should not exceed.

The bottles should be room temp to bottle condition. 2-3 weeks should be adequate. After that, you want to store them as cold as you can. The colder you store them, the longer they will last.
