There are many ways to reduce sediment in your batch before bottling,
Sitting in primary in the fridge for a couple of weeks works a treat to drop the yeast, But I always seemed to get a blob or 2 of trub, yeast into the beer when transferring which adds sediment to bottles and clouds kegs for ages.
I have been going the whole hog on beer clearing lately with great results. After primary fermentation has ceased I have now started chilling the primary in the fridge until reasonably clear, anywhere from 2 days for a lager to 2 weeks for an ale. Then I prepare a gelatin mix, (1 spoon of gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water).
Pour the mix into a secondary container with a tap fitted. Then i transfer the cold primary container into the secondary container onto the hot gelatin mix.
Any crap that gets into the secondary binds with the gelatin and drops out super quick, after a day in the fridge, longer if it needs it.
Then when you transfer to bottles or keg you dont have any sediment at all (or at least a shit load less) to worry about. I've done this with bottling and there is always still enough yeast in the beer for carbonation.
Makes it a bit of a job to get from fermenter to Keg/bottle but it works really well for me. Ive done it without the secondary plenty of times and have been dissapointed many times due to sediment in the primary getting into my kegs and bottles.
Nothing worse than brewing a beer for a month and have it turn to mud because a lump of yeasty crap got in there out of the primary.
I want (most) of my beers crystal clear.
Rant over.
