I have some cheap eBay 500g scales for bean weights. It is 0.01g resolution. Easily measures 1 bean weight. Portafilter blows out the 500g limit though, and it's too small to fit a portafilter on.
But I use it to pre pack my beans into single dose sized ziplocks. Then repack back into the suppliers bean bag and freeze the lot.
If going to work for 4 days, grab 4 ziplocks. If home and ready for espresso, grab 1 baggie.
Works well for me, though the initial weighing and bagging is a bit painful for 1kg of beans.

They won't be bothering with scales and dosing cup either
