I'm starting to see the color darken. Being I'm still new at all this I always seem to panic first. I racked to the secondary yesterday and racked off a bit to a cup. Tasted amazing. Now I got the dry hops soaking... patience isn't one of my strong points.

I forgot to take a picture of mine. I'll do it tonight. But mine looks very close to yours from my memory. I wouldn't worry.
