A 2 second search on Google came up with this. If I could find The information myself you should have been able to also!!
The term "scant" is used occasionally in recipes and cookbooks. ... When a recipe calls for a scant cup or scant teaspoon of something, don't fill the measuring cup or spoon to the top. Instead, use slightly less than the required amount.
This game isn't for everyone, being big and bloated doesn't make you the man, nor does being 110lbs ripped. If you are not competing, find a happy medium. I was thin once, learned all there was to learn about steroids and got pretty big. Then learned how to eat and I got really huge.

I know what a scant scoop is (My attempt at humor obviously failed but they can’t all be gems) but how much of a scant scoop and what should I use to measure that would give me 1200-1500mg?

It's my bad brother. I'm at fault. I'm having a bad day and took it out on you in my post - I apologize! It looks like they give you a scooper in the bag so one "scant scoop" is ~600mg so two of those would be ~1200mg and ~2.5 of those would be ~1500mg. If they dont give you a scooper in the bag then I am totaly lost for suggestions.

How would I go about getting 1200mg a day without using a digital scale from this 4.4oz bag of NAC?
It says “one scant scoop” for 600mg but what the hell is a scant scoop?
Anyone have tips or tricks to help me out?

R. Was there a scoop in the bag? If so, I guess that answers your question. Or just level out the scoop and weigh it on a mg scale/setting to see how mgs you get and adjust accordingly.
If not, then buy a Cap M Quick "00" capsule size capsule filler and a bag of empty caps. Each "00" cap holds approximately 600-900mgs per cap depending on the powder being used and how hard you compress/tamp the powder in the capsules, etc.
You could then take one of the filled capsules and weigh it on a mg scale to see how many mgs you have? I wouldn't worry about precision with NAC, a few mgs low or high isn't going to matter.
I have used a capsule filler for quite awhile with supp powders and NAC. Or you could just buy 600mg caps online. Piping Rock has pretty good prices.
I use my reloading powder scale for these types of things. Some compounds are to critical for guesswork, NAC not being one of them.
But when it comes to critically important dosing measurements these scales are invaluable.
