Hmm, OK.

If there is water in the oil, as the oil heats up the water separates from it and the resulting brown oil mist collects inside your oil fill cap as a 'mocha' foam.

You won't necessarily see any water on the dip-stick.

You might be losing water elsewhere, have you checked for tell tale coolant stains (green / red ) around the engine ?
