Carbonation in cold conditions

[NorfolkBrew]

I have a small brewery setup with a friend where we brew and store all our beer in a shed in my parents garden and we bottled a 5G batch last week so it has been conditioning since then with some priming sugar in each bottle, however as I'm sure you're all aware it's been freezing over the last week - great for conditioning, not so much for carbonation.

What are the chances it will carb up properly in these temperatures? Will it just take longer or won't it happen atall?

Ideally, it should be at room temerature for the residual yeast to do it's work.
From what i've read, If its a lager yeast, then you might be lucky, if it's an ale yeast, then i'd be tempted to bring it indoors.

No brewing yeast will metabolize properly under 5°C, not even lager yeast. Therefore there won’t be much carbonation.

Leave mine indoors for 2 weeks nice and ambient temp to carb up . Then 2 weeks in the garage. Not had a problem doing it this way since I started
