I just cracked a bottle of my spiced cider and noticed it tasted kinda off and my stomach started feeling a little funny a few minutes later. So I tried anther one, and I noticed that as soon as i cracked it open, the yeast sediment at the bottom instantly started to rise and mix with the rest of the brew. Any ideas on how to avoid this!?!
 
I have made soda that did this. Never figured out how to stop it though.
 
Same thing happened with my first IPA attempt...apparently bottled too soon & the carb drops worked better than expected, so not only a few rockets (!) but every bottle started frothing as soon as I opened it, so most had a hefty amount of sediment in it. I just poured as normal, trying to keep the bottom 1/4" out of the glass and it seemed to work OK.
