Study No 1 of a series of 1 so far :-)

First image is an earlier render when everything was going well.

I thought I had just a few things to sort out: add some
smoke, use an area light to get rid of the particle shadows,
use photons for the glass and fix up the max_gradient on the
isosurfaces.

As it turned out about half of what I did from then on made
things significantly worse.  Look at the second image and
you can see what I mean.

I would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for those pesky kids!
