I've used anywhere from 5-20 psi and I've let the fluid come both rushing and slowly trickling out.

Every time you open the MC to add more fluid, you introduce another opportunity for air to get into the system. As you pour in fresh fluid, sometimes the simple act of pouring can snag a bubble or two of air along the way.
I'll normally pressurize the tank to 10~15psi. When opening the bleeder screws, I just crack them open slightly at first, then slowly open them up a little bit more until I get a steady flow out. When the flow of bubbles seem to be slowing down, I'll close the bleeder and then wait a minute or two. Then I keep repeating this open/close process until nothing but fluid comes out. After bleeding each wheel, I'll check the tank pressure and pump it up as necessary to keep it as close to the pressure I started with as possible.
