The classic Pomodoro is said to be 25minn + 5 mins break, which adds up to half an hour, which is a common measurement unit for time worked. I've discovered that for my needs, a 20 min pomodoro with 5 mins rest works better.

The problem is that Pomodoros are hard to count if you hit flow state and find it hard to stop when the timer rings.
