I feel like a meathead because I've seen this question asked a million times but I've never read the threads ...and now I can't find one.
My casing has developed pins in the last 24 hours but there is a little-to-moderate amount of condensation on the surface. How should I handle this?
I was thinking about simply laying a sheet of tissue paper over the top. Not pressing down or anything, just letting it soak up whatever it could then removing the tissue.
Advisable?

handle it by leaving it alone its part of the reason your casing developed pins. 
big pools/puddles are problems, as are overwatering that mats down your casing, but small droplets are just fine. if you really want to dry it up, increase FAE, don't mess with dabbing anything up unless you deem it really bad.

I used a closet once setup a nice little lab trouble was all the shit that was in there ended up in the bedroom that pissed off the GF then I ended up dumping her as she was getting in the way of my sterile culture technique! Ya I got priorities too!!!"
