whey protein absorption

I always use 1/2 a scoop of whey = 15g protein in me gym shake of water, creatine and BCAA.
From the above link:
Little Miss Muffet drank a 50 gram whey protein shake. Since Miss Muffet can absorb only 10 grams every hour. How long does it take for Miss Muffet to absorb all the protein?
50 grams / 10 grams per hour = 5 hours
So, it would take 5 hours to digest all that protein. But remember, we have only 1.5 hours to get ‘er done. Therefore Miss Muffet has no chance of absorbing all of it. She’ll absorb – at most – 15 grams. And the other 35 grams? Well, they’re wasted. Unless…

Someone gave me their partial tub of unflavoured unsweetened whey isolate, the label sez one scoop =34g protein, I'll use me 15g scoop.
The tub was huge but the content weight was 850g, I think companies are giving less for the same old tub that had more. I buy instant coffee and use to get 200g but nowadays it's 170g.
