i haven't used them for this purpose, but i like the myweigh scales.

 

whatever you get, look for the smallest incremental measurement. if you get one capable of measuring heavier capacities, sometimes they aren't as sensitive, don't measure the smallest increments. in other words, if you want one that measures grams, a scale that will measure in tenths is going to be better that measures by 10's (not that there is such a thing, but just as an example)

A nickle weighs between 4.8-5.1 grams. Find one that is 5 grams and keep it with your scale for calibration.

Here is what I recommend $9 including shipping. You can place a Styrofoam bowl or cup on top to hold more.
