Bottling without sediment?

[Tony C]

What's the best method to bottle without leaving any sediment?
I like the freshness, portability and small space bottled beer can be kept in the house, but would like to try and remove the sediment at the bottom of the bottle.
Is this possible?

Racking to a corny keg via a filter, force carbonating with co2, then bottling using a beer gun or preferably a counter pressure bottle filler. Achievable, but convoluted.

Technically, yes it is possible using under pressure filters and forced carbonation, but its an awful lot of hassle.

Reducing the sediment is a much easier option and can be achieved using:
Time, give the yeast plenty of time to settle naturally,
Finings,
Cold crashing.

The choice of yeast is also very important. Some yeast sediments will cloud the beer the minute the bottle is opened, whereas others will stick to the bottom of the bottle like glue keeping your beer clear.

Nottingham yeast (also marketed as MJ42 New World Strong Ales") is highly recommended for bottle conditioning.
