I'm sorry, I should have clarified. I am talking about when you actually consume your protein. So every meal you consume, if you get your protein from whey protein, then that is how much you should consume.

After your workout, consume that much protein. In the morning when you wake up, consume that much protein.

Not all your meals should have whey in them though. Try to eat as many whole food meals as you can, with the exception of when you wake up, and after your workout.

thanks for the add

(Continuation of my previous comment):
Look at the ingredients on your protein, if the only whey protein ingredient is 'Whey Protein Isolate' or a mixture of Isolates and Hydrolyzides, then you're safe, and thats the highest quality stuff! So only 20g of that is all you need, any more and its a waste.

However if Whey Protein Concentrate is the first ingredient, then look at the 2nd ingredient, if its not a Protein Isolate, then you're gonna need like 40g of it, and if the 2nd ingredient IS an Isolate, then I'd say about 30g will be good.

Seriously though, even those numbers are probably a bit too high as far as protein goes, but those are the rules I stick to.

Hey man, welcome to the MFt family!

As far as protein goes, I would say this:
A 185lb man would need:

a) 20g of pure whey protein isolate
b) 30g of isolate/concentrate blend
c) 40g of pure whey protein concentrate

I always aim for 5g of glutamine and 5g of BCAA (Branched Chain AMino Acids) after a workout as well, or I'll sip on the two during a workout if my workout lasts (or is going to last) longer than usual.
