Recommended number of items in an RSS feed

I'm creating an RSS for an existing website and I was just wondering if there is a recommended number of feed items to be shown in an RSS feed?

Can output any number of feeds I want? Like 50 feeds at a time if it is needed?

The purpose of the RSS is to keep the subscribers on the website updated of any new content.

I'd say it really depends on how often you push new content.

If you're only pushing 1-2 new articles per day, then 5-10 results should be fine.

Keep the total results to no more than what your site pushes in a week.

I assume you're talking about the amount of articles in a feed? If so, start with about 25 or 30 feeds.
