Does it take a spell to get condensation out of the crankcase? 700

After getting the 760, I found it on the dipstick - had the oil changed - no water in oil. That was on the 22nd.

Today I check the oil. It is a bit low & there is that milky mixture right at the tip. I clean off the stick and it is not as noticeable. I add oil to top it off and it still there - but just barely.

Am I looking at water getting into the oil - or is this something that will take a few oil changes and a good general cleaning of the crankcase ventalation system to clear up?

I did note that the oil got really good and black really quick. It is that new Mobil syn blend that cleans.
