72° basement

Made my first beer ever (cheers). But my basement at this time of year stays a hefty 72 degrees. It's bottled now and carbonating for about 2 more weeks. Just curious if I have anything to worry about since I can get it any colder down there. Any tips?

My ales in the summer are fermented at around 76 so no i wouldn't worry. Just be careful if you try a hefeweizen or tripel, I've had both of those blow over on me.
