Ok this is something that I've used before. Basically you look a hold a ref to the last scrollTop(). Once your timeout clears, you check the current scrollTop() and if they are the same, you are done scrolling.

$(window).scroll((e) ->
  clearTimeout(scrollTimer)
  $('header').addClass('hidden')

  scrollTimer = setTimeout((() ->
    if $(this).scrollTop() is currentScrollTop
      $('header').removeClass('hidden') 
  ), animationDuration)

  currentScrollTop = $(this).scrollTop()
)
