i brewed a few norfolk wherrys now, normally bottled in 1 litre plastic bottles without any issues. i bottled the last batch in some groulsh bottles i got from my local. the problem is though that it has cleared well, but when i open the bottle (flip top caps) the sudden release in pressure seems to lift the sediment off the bottom making it undrinkable. why is this happening? has it happened to anyone else?
 
I bottle my TC in Grolsch bottles and I can't say I've noticed the sediment being disturbed that much. They normally open with a bit of a pop so I imagine with a similar amount of force to you.
 
you are best batch priming at 6-7g per litre that way if your bottles are smaller or under filled it won't matter. Also was the yeast the same? Some yeast compacts better than others.
