I carbonated my last brew with some light DME. When I pour one into a glass I notice some yeast sediment on the bottom. I am pretty sure that I did not siphon any of the yeast from the secondary fermenter into the bottles.
 
Ive only used Corn sugar to prime my bottles, but even with that there is a sediment at the bottom of each bottle due to the the yeast multiplying, eating the corn sugar, and then falling out of suspension...
have you used corn sugar to prime, or only DME?
 
Up until now, I've previously used corn sugar. On the last brew that I used corn sugar with I managed to get no sediment.
