aged beer at 67-68 F? I’m pretty sure that my fridge is too cold to properly develop a beer at 40-45 F. I guess my question is should I leave my beer in the fridge or in the depths of my basement?

It will definitely age faster at Farenheit temperatures than at Celsius ones.

Your basement is good. A couple clicks cooler might be ideal, but that’ll work.
If that’s the fridge you keep your food in, 40-45 F is too warm to inhibit bacterial growth.
No food in this one. I took it over for my beer stash
I’d just try to raise the temp a bit then and do like Beer Cellar said. You’re better off with more patience and a cooler, consistent temp.
Any idea how to raise the temp (the gage is on the lowest setting without being off). I have heard of people cellaring their brews in a dormant fridge - i.e. one that is turned off. But wouldn’t it eventually settle to the temperature of the room it is in?

A Ranco controller is your best bet. But just try to find one already adapted with power cables - it’s a real pain in the ass to do yourself.
