My best recommendation is to keep bedding them until the noise goes away. Also if you can take a picture of your rotors so the thread can see how much pad material has been deposited.
I'm going to pull everything apart this weekend to clean off the ejected shim grease. I'll put it back together without any grease.

I had the blue hazing and smell after I bed them in the first two times. What should the rotors look like now?
