I've been rendering some tallow but I'm not sure if I've burnt it or not. It doesn't smell burnt but I think it looks darker than I was expecting

how many times have you washed it? Mine is usually a lighter yellow. After rendering, I wash it at least once more but twice is better.
 
Can't say for sure. Maybe?? I'd cool it 100% hard, then remelt it with my method. It if remains Brown after a good render, I'd say it burned some. Trial and error it to see how it performs after another render with water.
