Both brews I have done with dry extract. I had sediment in the bottom of my bottles. Will a second fermenter help my problem?
 
No. If you are bottling your beer you will always have some. the only way to get sediment free bottles is filling from a keg.
 
As with any bottle conditioned beer, there will always be sediment. Using a secondary will help reduce sediment, but really you're never not going to have sediment in bottle conditioned beer. As long as there's not a lot of hop particles in it, the sediment is actually and added feature, I think. It's vitamin B12!
 
Embrace it, and teach people how to pour out of homebrew bottles "responsibly." :)
 
if you really care about it, leave it in primary for longer.... I have various amount s of sediment in all my brews...its normal... Plus youre just going to pour right off of it, right?
 
Yes I pour into a glass like your suppose to and leave it in the bottom of my bottle then I rinse my bottle for easer cleaning.
