Well, there are other options: gas-dynamic boundary layer, electrostatic or
acoustic levitation, etc. Or work in orbit...
Seriously, for someone with ultrasensitive taste and smell abilities,
working in glass with regular caustic cleaning is probably the answer. Where
I live and at my low level of discrimination, random hours of inferior
tap-water are the main threat. That, and random scents from the kitchen -
amazing how a bowl of fruit or a toasted muffin can alter the senses.
