Protein scoop size (cc/gram)

[streets769]

I've been using ON and Dymatize whey for years and I recently tried Body Tech due to the rising prices and the scoop is a 90 cc scoop! The serving size on all three proteins is 29.4 grams and this is the first time I've seen a scoop other than the usual 70 cc scoop (it says the size on the bottom in small print). I searched around and didn't find a quick cc to gram conversion other than medical liquid measurements which I'm not sure are the same as non-liquid. Anyone know what the proper scoop size should be?

Use a full scoop.

Use a full scoop.

Hahaha, I don't think you even read my post...my question is 70 cc or 90 cc scoop. Which one is closest to the 29.4 gram serving size???

Use the 90 cc scoop.

Edit - different protein brands/types will give various scoop sizes.

My guess would be the 90 cc for 29.4g because 70 cc scoops typical give ~23-25g of protein. Ofcoarse this depends on the type.

Note that at least ON's scoop serving is a rounded scoop - which could easily add the difference and be close to a flat 90cc scoop serving.

Wow, I'm surprised by all of your responses. I had assumed that Body Tech was just including a bigger scoop so the consumer would go through the tub faster. Come to find out they use the actual level scoop size and ON and Dymatize use a smaller scoop assuming you'll heap it to get the actual amount. I guess ON and Dymatize should be applauded for not giving you a big scoop in hopes of you heaping it and moving on to the next tub faster.

Different densities of the products?

Don't mean to insult by being over simplistic. Think of ON and Dymatize as rocks and Body Tech as feathers. You'ld need a larger bucket to hold 5 pounds of feathers than 5 pounds of rocks.

Hell . 70 cc is approximately 28.9 grams. I hope this helps...
